Global Health Activities in Developing Countries to Combat Non-Communicable Chron

该方案的目的是在发展中国家防治非传染性慢性心血管和肺部疾病，方法是促进临床研究基础设施的发展和研究培训，并对预防或治疗慢性心血管和肺部疾病的新的或改进的方法、方案和措施进行研究。项目目标是发展卓越研究中心（coe），其教职员工能够进行独立和/或合作研究，并培养未来的博士和博士后水平的慢性CVPD研究人员。该计划预计将刺激临床，流行病学，卫生服务和结果，卫生政策，转化和行为研究。该机制不支持以动物研究为重点的动物研究和/或培训。

The purpose of this program is to combat non-communicable chronic cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases (CVPD), in developing countries, by enabling clinical research infrastructure development and research training and by conducting research on new or improved approaches, programs, and measures to prevent or treat chronic CVPD. Program objectives are to develop research Centers of Excellence (COEs) with faculty and staff capable of conducting independent and/or collaborative research, as well as training future chronic CVPD investigators at the doctoral and postdoctoral levels. This program is expected to stimulate clinical, epidemiologic, health services and outcomes, health policy, translational, and behavioral research. Animal studies and/or training with a focus on animal studies will not be supported through this mechanism.
