Project Abstract NEUFIN (Neuroscience in First Nations) is a unique advanced research training and mentoring program focused on the indigenous minorities of South America, one of the most underserved populations in the globe. Over the past five years we completed two cycles of advanced training -in the context of an international master of science degree - and capacity development, for scholars and faculty of First Nations from Bolivia, Peru and Argentina. We will continue to build capacity and train Quechua neuroscientists on clinical research applications of neuroimaging, genetics, epidemiology, neuropsychology and neuromodulation. We will also create personalized training environments and an innovation ecosystem online to support capacity and career development for Quechua neuroscientists after completion of their initial degree. The Training Program consists of the following components: 1. Graduate Program in Neuroscience for First Nations to train Quechua speaking scientists for multidisciplinary research studies in clinical and translational neurosciences, epidemiology, imaging, and genetics research. Support includes 24-month scholarships and tuition towards a Master of Sciences in Neuroscience based at Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia, but including mentored research rotations at University of Texas Health San Antonio, Harvard Medical School or Washington University School of Medicine, and for three semesters at South American institutions. Funds will be available for pilot and reinsertion small grants after graduation. Mentorship and initial work towards enrollment in a PhD at University of Buenos Aires will be supported as well. 2. Ecosystem of Innovation in First Nations to provide a personalized learning, training and mentoring environment for a diverse group of scientists, focused on precision and personalized medicine approaches to neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases in First Nations. Scholars will continue fruitful participation and development of their research capacity after graduation taking full advantage of online resources, tools and interpersonal connectivity. NEUFIN provides an ecosystem for advanced learning, innovation, collaboration and implementation of translational research in chronic brain disorders, bringing together clinicians and researchers from multiple partner institutions. NEUFIN will follow the described model by building an ecology of innovation with a strong focus on translational and personalized medicine strategies through open and dynamic learning conversations inside and outside the group through regular seminar series and the Fall Research Institute, and with a strong incentive and recognition system based on funding for pilot studies. 3. To ensure recruitment of trainees from multiple Andean communities in three different countries, who will remain as researchers in their home institutions we will implement several intersecting strategies. 4. To interact with other Fogarty Training Programs. via web based electronic communication efforts supported by an FIC/ARRA grant to the Director to share curriculum and training experiences to enhance our programs.

项目摘要 NEUFIN（第一民族神经科学）是一个独特的先进的研究培训和指导 该计划的重点是南美洲的土著少数民族，其中一个最缺乏服务 地球仪上的人口。在过去五年，我们完成了两个周期的高级培训-在 国际科学硕士学位的背景下-和能力发展，为学者和 来自玻利维亚、秘鲁和阿根廷的第一民族的教师。我们将继续加强能力建设， 克丘亚神经科学家在神经成像，遗传学，流行病学， 神经心理学和神经调节。我们还将创建个性化的培训环境， 在线创新生态系统，支持克丘亚神经科学家的能力和职业发展 在完成初始学位后。培训方案由以下部分组成： 1.第一民族神经科学研究生课程，培训克丘亚语科学家， 临床和转化神经科学，流行病学，成像， 和遗传学研究。支持包括24个月的奖学金和学费对硕士 秘鲁卡耶塔诺埃雷迪亚大学神经科学，但包括指导 在德克萨斯健康大学圣安东尼奥、哈佛医学院或华盛顿进行研究轮换 大学医学院，并在南美机构三个学期。资金将 毕业后可获得试点和重新安置小额赠款。指导和初步工作， 在布宜诺斯艾利斯大学的博士招生也将得到支持。 2.第一民族创新生态系统，提供个性化的学习、培训和指导 为不同的科学家群体提供环境，专注于精确和个性化医疗 在第一民族的神经精神和神经退行性疾病的方法。学者们将继续 富有成效的参与和发展他们的研究能力毕业后充分利用 在线资源、工具和人际联系的能力。NEUFIN提供了一个生态系统， 学习、创新、合作和慢性脑转化研究的实施 疾病，汇集了来自多个合作机构的临床医生和研究人员。NEUFIN将 遵循所描述的模式，建立一个创新生态系统，重点关注翻译 和个性化的医疗策略，通过开放和动态的学习对话， 通过定期的系列研讨会和秋季研究所， 以试点研究资金为基础的奖励和表彰制度。 3.为了确保从三个不同国家的多个安第斯社区招聘受训人员， 谁将继续作为研究人员在他们的家乡机构，我们将实施几个交叉 战略布局 4.与其他Fogarty培训计划互动。通过基于网络的电子通信努力 在FIC/ARRA赠款的支持下，主任分享课程和培训经验， 加强我们的方案。
