DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goals of the Pan American Bioethics Initiative (PABI) program are to challenge and enable our Fellows from Latin American and Caribbean research organizations to actively foster clinical research integrity and the responsible conduct of research at their research institution. Our Fellows will be decision makers and policy architects who have practical responsibilities for the development and/or oversight of research ethics programs at their respective institutions. Our novel approach to build research integrity and research capacity in Latin America and the Caribbean emphasizes a "Top Down" approach where decision makers currently involved in research ethics regulations and policy development are specifically challenged to develop a robust ethics program. The expectation is that by agreeing to participate in the PABI, the Fellows will use the collective expertise and resources of the University of Miami Ethics Program, the PABI Developers and Faculty to develop a robust research ethic program at their organization. A collegial relationship with the PABI Developers and faculty will maximize networking and mentoring opportunities for the Fellows. In addition, to seminars and in-country capacity building workshops, the CITI Program will be provided as a tool to distribute basic bioethics education to faculty, staff and students at participating organizations. The CITI Program, offers web based education in human subject protection, Good Clinical Practice (GCP), lab animal welfare and research integrity to more than 825 institutions in the U.S. and around the world. The CITI Program has been implemented at sites in Peru, Chile, Costa Rica, Brazil, Mexico, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and at all University of the West Indies venues in the Caribbean region. CITI has a Spanish and Portuguese language library of nearly 60 modules that can now be effectively presented on the new CITI mulit-language course site. Fellows will have direct responsibility for the implementation of programs that promote the ethical and responsible conduct of clinical and non-clinical research. Progress will be monitored frequently and critiqued on a semi-annual basis at the PABI meetings and at on-site workshops. Significantly, the program will be sustained because each fellow will be required to recruit, in year 03, a peer at another institution to be a Fellow and in the PABI program. Considerable synergy with existing Fogerty funded programs in Latin America and the Caribbean will be a "value added" aspect of the program. Further, the PABI program developed though this proposal will provide important infrastructure models and capabilities that will provide substantial benefits to current and future Fogerty programs for years to come. PUBLIC HEATLH RELEVANCE: The Pan American Bioethics Initiative Project described in this application is designed to aggressively promoted the research capacity in resource poor countries of Latin America and the Caribbean. Policy makers will be challenged to implement rigorous and robust bioethics programs for their investigators, staff and students. With such programs in place, institutions in the Latin America will be in a better position to participate in the international Clinical research Enerprise. Without an appropriate ethical foundation, clinical research, clinical research subjects and the public health of can not be well served.

描述（由申请人提供）：泛美生物伦理倡议（pai）项目的总体目标是挑战并使我们来自拉丁美洲和加勒比研究机构的研究员能够积极促进临床研究诚信和负责任的研究行为。我们的研究员将是决策者和政策制定者，他们对各自机构的研究伦理项目的发展和/或监督负有实际责任。我们在拉丁美洲和加勒比地区建立研究诚信和研究能力的新方法强调了一种“自上而下”的方法，在这种方法中，目前参与研究伦理法规和政策制定的决策者面临着制定强有力的伦理计划的具体挑战。期望通过同意参加pai，研究员将利用迈阿密大学伦理项目、pai开发人员和教师的集体专业知识和资源，在他们的组织中制定一个健全的研究伦理项目。与pai开发人员和教师的大学关系将最大限度地为研究员提供网络和指导机会。此外，除了研讨会和国内能力建设讲习班外，花旗计划还将作为一种工具，向参与组织的教职员工和学生分发基本的生物伦理教育。花旗计划为美国和世界各地的825多家机构提供人类受试者保护、良好临床规范（GCP）、实验动物福利和研究诚信方面的网络教育。花旗计划已在秘鲁、智利、哥斯达黎加、巴西、墨西哥、波多黎各、多米尼加共和国以及西印度群岛大学在加勒比地区的所有场馆实施。花旗有一个西班牙语和葡萄牙语库，包含近60个模块，现在可以在新的花旗多语言课程网站上有效地展示。研究员将直接负责实施促进临床和非临床研究的道德和负责任行为的项目。将经常监测进展情况，并在半年一次的pai会议和现场讲习班上提出批评。值得注意的是，该计划将持续下去，因为每个研究员将被要求在第03年在另一个机构招募一名研究员和pai计划的研究员。与福格蒂资助的拉丁美洲和加勒比地区现有项目的相当大的协同作用将是该项目的“增值”方面。此外，通过该提案开发的pai项目将提供重要的基础设施模型和能力，这将在未来几年为当前和未来的Fogerty项目提供实质性的好处。公共卫生相关性：本申请中描述的泛美生物伦理倡议项目旨在积极促进拉丁美洲和加勒比地区资源贫乏国家的研究能力。政策制定者将面临挑战，为他们的研究人员、员工和学生实施严格而有力的生物伦理计划。有了这些项目，拉丁美洲的机构将更好地参与到国际临床研究事业中来。没有适当的伦理基础，临床研究、临床研究对象和公众健康就不能得到很好的服务。
