项目摘要
Program abstract
This is an application for a two-year planning grant to build capacity for an international advanced research
training in schistosomiasis in Uganda. The high burden of schistosomiasis in Uganda persists since the
1950’s Over 50% of the Ugandan population is at risk of exposure to Schistosoma species and its
complications of fatal upper gastro-intestinal bleeding among adults. Gaps in control of schistosomiasis
remain due to limited number of scientists with capacity to conduct advanced research and training focused
on schistosomiasis epidemiology, vector biology, immunology, vaccinology, therapeutics, genomics,
computational biology to model the schistosomiasis transmission, data science and artificial intelligence to
model population behavior and other predictors of disease severity, as well as local development and
production of effective vaccine candidates, and the application of locally generated data to inform relevant
interventions for disease surveillance and control interventions in the affected communities. We propose to
conduct a comprehensive needs assessment of the existing research and training capacity for
schistosomiasis at Makerere University College of Health Sciences (MakCHS) and the collaborating
institutions in Uganda (Uganda Virus Research Institute-UVRI, the Ministry of Vector Control Division in
charge of schistosomiasis and other medical schools in the country). Findings from the needs assessment
will be used to develop of an innovative research training and career enhancement program to strengthen
capacity of scientists and health research professionals to conduct independent, multi-disciplinary research
in schistosomiasis. During the two-year planning period we will hold multiple stakeholder engagements and
identify the research training resources, local and international faculty, scientific environment contributions
and administrative processes needed to undertake a schistosomiasis research training program. We will
establish a strong executive committee to oversee the design and preparation of advanced scientific didactic
and methodology courses (physical and virtual) and research training resources for schistosomiasis
epidemiology, disease management, prevention, and control. We will also establish an international multi-
disciplinary training advisory committee that will meet quarterly to guide and monitor the progress of the
planning process against the set goals and milestones. The proposed planning grant will build on existing
infection and immunity research training partnerships between MakCHS and UVRI, and long-standing
research training collaborations with our US partners (John Hopkins University and University of Washington).
We will reach out for new collaborations that may be required locally and abroad to establish a wholistic,
multi-disciplinary network of scientists with an effective organizational structure that will support the
envisioned research training program, and resultant collaborative five-year training program (D43) application
for better control schistosomiasis in Uganda.

程序摘要
这是一项为期两年的计划拨款申请,旨在为一项国际高级研究建立能力。
乌干达的血吸虫病培训。乌干达血吸虫病的高负担自
S超过50%的乌干达人口面临着接触血吸虫物种和其他疾病的风险
成人致死性上消化道出血的并发症。血吸虫病防治工作中存在的差距
由于有能力进行高级研究和重点培训的科学家人数有限
血吸虫病流行病学、媒介生物学、免疫学、疫苗学、治疗学、基因组学、
计算生物学模拟血吸虫病传播,数据科学和人工智能
模拟人口行为和疾病严重程度的其他预测因素,以及当地发展和
生产有效的候选疫苗,并应用当地产生的数据向相关人员提供信息
受影响社区的疾病监测和控制干预措施。我们建议
对现有的研究和培训能力进行全面的需求评估
Makerere大学健康科学学院(MakCHS)的血吸虫病及其合作
乌干达的机构(乌干达病毒研究所-UVRI、#年病媒控制部司
负责该国的血吸虫病和其他医学院)。需求评估的结果
将用于制定创新的研究培训和职业提升计划,以加强
科学家和卫生研究专业人员进行独立、多学科研究的能力
在血吸虫病中。在为期两年的规划期间,我们将举行多个利益相关者参与,并
确定研究培训资源、当地和国际教师、科学环境的贡献
以及开展血吸虫病研究培训计划所需的行政程序。我们会
成立一个强有力的执行委员会,监督先进科学教材的设计和准备
和方法课程(实体和虚拟)和血吸虫病研究培训资源
流行病学、疾病管理、预防和控制。我们还将建立一个国际多国-
纪律培训咨询委员会,每季度召开一次会议,指导和监测
对照设定的目标和里程碑进行计划过程。拟议的规划拨款将建立在现有的基础上
MakCHS和UVRI之间的感染和免疫研究培训伙伴关系,并长期
与我们的美国合作伙伴(约翰·霍普金斯大学和华盛顿大学)进行研究和培训合作。
我们将寻求国内外可能需要的新合作,以建立一个完整的、
多学科科学家网络,具有有效的组织结构,将支持
设想的研究性培训计划,以及由此产生的协作式五年培训计划(D43)应用
为了更好地控制乌干达的血吸虫病。
