Summary In Kenya, first generation college graduates and students from backgrounds of extreme poverty and rural counties that have limited educational opportunities, especially for women, are collectively defined as underrepresented populations (URP). These students often experience substantial socioeconomic barriers to accessing tertiary degree programs and as a result, few become independent researchers leading to continued underrepresentation of these populations in STEM fields. Promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in our D43 training program will strengthen the HIV response in Kenya by increasing opportunities for junior researchers with URP identities to become independent investigators and contribute their unique lived experiences and expertise to the HIV prevention and care field. In this supplement to our D43 award, Women and HIV: Translation of Research into Practice (TW009783), we propose to 1) provide PhD training support to scholars from URPs and with diverse backgrounds to increase their capacity as independent researchers and build capacity at KEMRI for conducting relevant HIV research on Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW); and 2) integrate DEI frameworks into the Women and HIV Research Training program and alter the processes for recruiting, selecting, and mentoring trainees to increase access and reduce barriers for trainees from URPs. We have identified three scholars to receive support for one year of PhD studies through this supplement. Funding from the supplement will provide these PhD students with the resources to conduct research impacting the lives of women living with HIV, and to enhance their scientific writing, leadership, and technical research skills as the work to become independent researchers. Additionally, to support the long-term integration of DEI principles into our training program, candidate selection team will critically review our admission criteria for future D43 awards using a DEI lens and will undergo training on how to best support trainees from diverse backgrounds. The program’s activities will be under the combined guidance of Dr. Elizabeth Bukusi (KEMRI) and Dr. Carey Farquhar (UW), who are both MPIs on the parent grant and have significant experience implementing Fogarty training programs. In addition to program leadership, the PhD trainees will be supported by a mentorship team of research and subject-area experts from KEMRI and the UW. This integrated approach will provide an outstanding opportunity to spur research by individuals from URPs to inform the design of policies and guidelines affecting women living with HIV, while also strengthening the mentorship framework of the D43 award by incorporating DEI principles into its very foundation.

摘要 在肯尼亚，第一代大学毕业生和来自极端贫困背景的学生 而教育机会有限的农村县，特别是妇女，是 统称为代表不足群体(URP)。这些学生经常经历 进入高等教育课程面临巨大的社会经济障碍，因此，很少有人 成为独立的研究人员，导致这些群体的代表性持续偏低 在STEM字段中。在我们的D43培训计划中促进多样性、公平和包容性(DEI)将 通过增加患有URP的初级研究人员的机会来加强肯尼亚的艾滋病毒应对 身份成为独立的调查人员，并贡献他们独特的生活经验和 向艾滋病毒预防和护理领域提供专业知识。在我们的D43奖项的这个副刊中，女性和 HIV：将研究转化为实践(TW009783)，我们建议1)提供博士培训 支持来自URP和不同背景的学者提高他们的能力 独立研究人员和在KEMRI进行相关艾滋病毒研究的能力建设 青春期女孩和青年妇女(AGYW)；和2)将经社部框架纳入妇女 和艾滋病毒研究培训计划，并改变招募、选拔和 指导受训人员，以增加接触机会并减少来自URP的受训人员的障碍。我们有 确定了三名学者通过这一补充获得一年博士学习的支持。 补充金将为这些博士生提供进行 影响艾滋病毒携带者妇女生活的研究，并加强她们的科学写作， 以领导力、技术研究技能为工作方向，成为独立的研究人员。 此外，为了支持将Dei原则长期纳入我们的培训计划， 候选人遴选团队将严格审查我们未来D43奖项的录取标准，使用 并将接受如何最好地支持来自不同背景的受训者的培训。 该计划的活动将在伊丽莎白·布库西博士(KEMRI)的共同指导下进行 和Carey Farquhar博士(UW)，他们都是父母补助金上的MPI，并有重要的 有实施Fogarty培训计划的经验。除了项目领导，博士学位 受训人员将得到由研究和学科领域专家组成的指导团队的支持，这些专家来自 KEMRI和威斯康星大学。这一综合方法将提供一个绝佳的机会来刺激 来自URP的个人的研究，为影响妇女的政策和指导方针的设计提供信息 艾滋病毒携带者，同时还通过以下方式加强D43奖的导师框架 将天意原则融入到它的基础中。
