Global Health Equity Scholars Program - D43 Fogarty Training

项目概要/摘要： 我们建议继续我们的全球健康研究培训计划，称为全球健康公平 学者（GHES）计划旨在创建一个新的研究人员，教育工作者和 专业人员准备应对新的和正在出现的全球卫生挑战。我们将继续努力， 过去4年的培训计划，以创造一个新的研究人员谁可以奉献自己的骨干 研究事业，以解决因人类条件不平等而产生的健康问题 在联合国定义为贫民窟的非正式人类住区中普遍存在。而不是 针对一种疾病，我们建议提供一个全面的，多学科的， 处理贫民窟健康问题的综合办法， 参与该计划的教师。该计划将由4个美国合作伙伴组成 包括加州大学伯克利分校、耶鲁大学、斯坦福大学 大学和佛罗里达国际大学，每个大学都由全球健康研究的领导者领导， 多年的合作关系。核心培训教师 这些机构目前在23个国家的31个地点之一进行研究， 代表非洲、拉丁美洲、加勒比海、南亚和东南亚、中东、东亚 欧洲和大洋洲。培训计划将涉及广泛的健康研究课题 包括新出现和后果严重的传染病、非传染性疾病、 妇女健康、环境健康、心理健康、人际暴力、药物滥用和 所有这些卫生问题在贫民窟卫生框架内的相互作用。培训将针对 美国博士后研究员和博士前学生，以及低收入和中等收入国家（LMIC） 博士后他们将在23个国家之一接受8-12个月的培训。 监督财团及其合作的LMIC导师。他们将同时获得 在整个培训过程中提供研究和职业指导，并跟踪职业发展 在完成其GHES支持的研究工作后进行开发。通过这次培训， 课程中，我们将向学员介绍全球健康研究的一个主要和重要方面 (slum健康研究），并为他们提供机会，使他们成为这一新的全球 卫生纪律。

Project Summary/Abstract: We propose to continue our global health research training program called Global Health Equity Scholars (GHES) program designed to create a new community of researchers, educators, and professionals prepared to address new and emerging global health challenges. We will build on the last 4 years of this training program to create a cadre of new researchers who can dedicate their research career to address the health problems that arise out of inequity of human conditions prevalent in informal human settlements that the United Nations has defined as slums. Rather than addressing one disease at a time, we propose to provide a comprehensive, multidisciplinary and integrated approach to deal with slum health issues, developed over many years by various participating faculty members of this program. This program will be comprised of 4 US partner institutions (Consortium) that include University of California at Berkeley, Yale University, Stanford University, and Florida International University, each led by a leader in global health research with many years of collaborative relationship among themselves. Together, core training faculty members (mentors) of these institutions currently conduct research at one of 31 sites in 23 countries, representing Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, South and Southeast Asia, Middle East, Eastern Europe, and Oceania. The training program will address a wide range of health research topics including emerging and high-consequence infectious diseases, non-communicable diseases (NCD), women's health, environmental health, mental health, interpersonal violence, substance abuse, and the interaction of all of these health issues within the framework of slum health. Training will target US postdoctoral fellows and pre-doctoral students, as well as low and middle-income country (LMIC) postdoctoral fellows. They will undergo 8-12-month of training at one of the 23 countries under supervision of the Consortium and their collaborating LMIC mentors. They will be provided with both research and career mentorship throughout the course of their training and tracked for career development after completion of their GHES-supported research work. Thus, through this training program, we will introduce to the trainees one major and important aspect of global health research (slum health research) and provide an opportunity for them to become experts in this new global health discipline.
