The University of Botswana School of Medicine (UB SoM) enrolled in first class of students in 2009 and began a residency program in 2010. The School was formed to train doctors who are citizens of Botswana with the hope of retaining them in country. In prior years, medical students were educated outside the country at the government's expense; however, less than 15% returned to Botswana. The University of Pennsylvania (Penn) established collaborations with the Government of Botswana and UB in 2001, which is referred to as the Botswana-UPenn Partnership. The partnership focuses on building health care capacity in clinical care, education, and research in Botswana. The goals of this Core are to enhance the education of UB SoM trainees and faculty in clinical research methodology focused on cervical cancer, and to provide scientific and career mentoring for trainees and faculty who apply for pilot grant funding. To achieve these goals: 1. We will introduce a career-mentoring program at UB for faculty and students interested in biomedical research. No such mentoring program currently exists at UB. Entry into the career-mentoring program will be based on those trainees and faculty who submit a pilot grant application. All applicants will be offered career mentoring independent of their success in obtaining pilot grant funding. We distinguish career mentors from scientific mentors in that career mentors are often senior faculty with successful careers that do not necessarily share scientific interests with their mentees. One senior faculty member from UB and another from Penn will be identified as career mentors. 2. We will organize an annual educational workshop in biomedical research methodology for UB faculty and medical trainees We will focus on teaching at an introductory level about the skills required for biomedical research with an emphasis on epidemiology, pathogenesis and treatment of cervical cancer, which is the central theme of this application. Lectures will target UB medical students. Masters of Medicine (MMed) residents working on a research thesis, and UB faculty interested in biomedical research. 3. We will initiate a mentored pilot grant program that links a UB faculty member with a UB MMed resident and/or medical student and a scientific mentor from Penn. We are particularly interested in supporting pilot grant applications that include as a team member UB medical students enrolled in a novel year-out program for biomedical research funded by the Botswana Government. We will devote one day of the annual workshop to lectures on manuscript and grant writing, to supervising the faculty and trainees as they begin to prepare their pilot grant applications, and to helping applicants identify suitable scientific mentors at Penn for their projects. We will establish performance measures to monitor the success of our programs. The 13-year commitment of Penn faculty in Botswana and the collegial relationships that have emerged are positive indicators that this Core will succeed in achieving its research and mentoring goals.

博茨瓦纳大学医学院（UB SoM）于2009年招收了第一批学生，并开始了一个 2010年居住计划。该学校的成立是为了培训博茨瓦纳公民的医生， 把他们留在国内。在过去的几年里，医科学生在国外接受政府的教育。 然而，只有不到15%的人返回博茨瓦纳。宾夕法尼亚大学（Penn）成立 2001年与博茨瓦纳政府和布隆迪政府合作，称为博茨瓦纳-宾夕法尼亚大学合作项目。 伙伴关系该伙伴关系的重点是在临床护理，教育和研究方面建立卫生保健能力， 波札那.该核心的目标是加强UB SoM学员和教师在临床方面的教育 以宫颈癌为重点的研究方法，并为学员提供科学和职业指导， 申请试点补助金的教师。为了实现这些目标：1。我们将推出一个职业指导计划 在UB为对生物医学研究感兴趣的教师和学生。目前没有这样的指导计划， UB。进入职业指导计划将基于那些提交试点补助金的学员和教师 应用程序.所有申请人都将获得职业指导，无论他们是否成功获得试点补助金 经费我们将职业导师与科学导师区分开来，因为职业导师通常是资深教师， 成功的职业生涯不一定与学员有共同的科学兴趣。一名高级教员 来自UB和另一个来自宾夕法尼亚大学将被确定为职业导师。2.我们将组织一次年度教育 UB教师和医学实习生的生物医学研究方法研讨会我们将专注于在一个 介绍生物医学研究所需的技能，重点是流行病学， 宫颈癌的发病机制和治疗，这是本申请的中心主题。讲座将针对 UB医学院学生医学硕士（MMed）居民从事研究论文，和UB教师 对生物医学研究感兴趣3.我们将启动一个指导试点赠款计划，链接UB教师 成员与UB MMed居民和/或医学生和宾夕法尼亚大学的科学导师。我们特别 有兴趣支持试点补助金申请，其中包括作为团队成员UB医学生就读于一个 由博茨瓦纳政府资助的生物医学研究的新年度计划。我们将用一天的时间 每年的研讨会，手稿和赠款写作讲座，监督教师和学员，因为他们 开始准备他们的试点拨款申请，并帮助申请人在宾夕法尼亚大学找到合适的科学导师 为他们的项目。我们将建立绩效指标，以监测我们的计划是否成功。13年 宾夕法尼亚大学教师在博茨瓦纳的承诺和已经出现的学院关系是积极的指标 这个核心将成功地实现其研究和指导目标。
