Virginia Commonwealth University (VCD) and the University of Chile will jointly offer translational research training in reproductive biology to junior scientists from throughout Latin America. Potential trainees will submit applications to the University of Chile, which will be responsible for screening, interviewing, and selecting program participants. Eligibility will be based on completion of doctoral degree requirements (plus clinical training for MD candidates) within the past 5 years; area of research interest (relevance to public health priorities in reproductive medicine in their home country); commitment to return to home country to establish research program; and letters of reference. Trainees will complete 1-2 years of coursework and laboratory training at the University of Chile before coming to VCU to conduct a 1-3 year intensive mentored research project. Each year, 2 trainees will be supported in Chile and 1 in the US. While at VCU, trainees will complete an NIH grant-writing workshop tailored to the needs of international researchers that will be open to all Fogarty population science training program participants; this workshop will be converted to an online distance education course. Additional distance education offerings led by presenters from VCU and Chile will cover research areas covered by training mentors, including polycystic ovary syndrome and insulin resistance, preterm birth, pre-eclampsia, fetal membrane rupture, cell signaling, gonorrhea vaccine development, steroidogenesis, and promotion of healthy pregnancy. Training in the responsible conduct of research will be provided at both the University of Chile and VCU, and practical scientific management skills (Making the Right Moves) will be taught so trainees can understand how best to partner with researchers at US institutions and how they can apply these skills in their home setting. Other enrichment activities include Endocrine Grand Rounds, Journal Club, Clinical Conference, and lab brainstorming on a weekly basis; a monthly Visiting Professor series; and annual seminars on basic endocrinology research and women's health research. A detailed evaluation plan with measurable outcome indicators will be used to track the success of the program, of trainees who participate, and of research mentors involved. Trainees who complete their mentored research at VCU will be eligible for a re-entry grant of up to $5000 per year for up to 3 years (continued funding contingent on completion of productive research in their home country).

弗吉尼亚联邦大学（VCD）和智利大学将联合开展转化研究 为来自整个拉丁美洲的初级科学家提供生殖生物学培训。潜在的实习生将 向智利大学提交申请，该大学将负责筛选、面试和 选择计划参与者。资格将取决于完成博士学位要求（加上 过去5年内接受过医学博士候选人的临床培训；研究兴趣领域（与公众的相关性） 本国生殖医学的健康优先事项）；承诺回国 制定研究计划；和推荐信。学员将完成 1-2 年的课程作业 在前往VCU进行1-3年的强化指导之前，先在智利大学进行实验室培训 研究项目。每年将在智利为 2 名学员提供支持，在美国为 1 名学员提供支持。在 VCU 期间，学员将 完成 NIH 资助写作研讨会，以满足国际研究人员的需求，该研讨会将开放给 所有福格蒂人口科学培训项目参与者；该研讨会将转变为在线研讨会 远程教育课程。由弗吉尼亚联邦大学和智利的演讲者主持的其他远程教育课程将 涵盖培训导师涵盖的研究领域，包括多囊卵巢综合症和胰岛素 抵抗力、早产、先兆子痫、胎膜破裂、细胞信号传导、淋病疫苗 发育、类固醇生成和促进健康妊娠。负责任行为的培训 智利大学和弗吉尼亚联邦大学将提供研究，以及实用的科学管理技能 将教授（采取正确的行动），以便学员能够了解如何最好地与研究人员合作 美国机构以及他们如何在自己的家庭环境中应用这些技能。其他丰富活动包括 每周内分泌大查房、期刊俱乐部、临床会议和实验室头脑风暴；一个 每月客座教授系列；以及基础内分泌学研究和妇女问题年度研讨会 健康研究。将使用包含可衡量结果指标的详细评估计划来跟踪 该计划的成功、参与的学员以及参与的研究导师的成功。学员谁 在弗吉尼亚联邦大学 (VCU) 完成指导研究后，将有资格获得每年高达 5000 美元的重新入学补助金，最多可达 3 年（继续资助取决于在本国完成富有成效的研究）。
