DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): To build on the partnership for research and capacity development established by the Johns Hopkins University and Makerere University to study Chronic Consequences of Trauma, Injuries and Disability (Chronic TRIAD) Across the Lifespan in Uganda (D43, award no. D43TW009284), we propose this training program to enhance electronic capacity (e-capacity) to apply relevant ICT tools to research and training projects in trauma, injuries and disability in Uganda through an innovative model of sustainable capacity development. The approach of this Johns Hopkins University-Makerere University Electronic Trauma, Injuries and Disability (JHU-MU E-TRIAD) in Uganda is grounded in close collaboration between two institutions - Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health (JHU), USA and Makerere University School of Public Health (MU), Uganda - currently engaged in a Fogarty International Center D43 award to develop health research training for trauma, injuries and disability. Both institutions share a commitment to research training, expertise in holistic applications of relevant information and communication technology (ICT; defined as "e- capacity" here) and global health research, as well as their history of collaborative work. In our model, US expertise will be deployed in this partnership with MU to further strengthen the Ugandan institution; promote a sustainable training enterprise focused on the development of e-capacity for research and training in trauma, injuries, and disability; apply these new assets in other areas of global health research; and enable the dissemination of these resources throughout Uganda. The specific aims of this project are (1) to use short- term, structured, e-capacity training and e-mentoring in-country workshops incorporating basic and advanced ICT components, as well as online courses and webinars, to develop a core group of researchers focused on the use and integration of e-capacity in programs of research and training in trauma, injuries and disability at MU; (2) to promote the use of e-capacity in the production of relevant research around key national priorities for trauma, injuries and disability in Uganda, engaging trainees in the hands-on use of ICT for pursuing their research and data collection projects and learning lessons applicable to other topics in global health research; and (3) to establish a home within MU to promote the understanding and uses of e-capacity in future research and training for health research at MU in Uganda.

描述（由申请人提供）：在约翰霍普金斯大学和马凯雷雷大学建立的研究和能力发展伙伴关系的基础上，研究乌干达终生创伤、伤害和残疾的慢性后果（慢性TRIAD） （D43，奖励号：1）。D43TW009284)，我们提出这一培训计划，旨在通过可持续能力发展的创新模式，提高乌干达将相关信息通信技术工具应用于创伤、伤害和残疾研究和培训项目的电子能力（e-capacity）。乌干达约翰霍普金斯大学-马凯雷雷大学电子创伤、伤害和残疾（JHU-MU E-TRIAD）的方法基于两个机构之间的密切合作——美国约翰霍普金斯大学彭博公共卫生学院（JHU）和乌干达马凯雷雷大学公共卫生学院（MU）——目前参与福格蒂国际中心D43奖，以发展创伤、伤害和残疾的卫生研究培训。这两个机构共同致力于研究培训、相关信息和通信技术（信通技术；这里定义为“e- capacity”）整体应用方面的专门知识和全球卫生研究，以及它们合作工作的历史。在我们的模式中，美国的专业知识将在与MU的伙伴关系中得到部署，以进一步加强乌干达的机构；促进可持续的培训企业，重点发展创伤、伤害和残疾研究和培训的电子能力；将这些新资产应用于全球卫生研究的其他领域；并使这些资源能够在乌干达各地传播。该项目的具体目标是：(1)利用短期、结构化的电子能力培训和电子辅导国内研讨会，包括基本和先进的信息通信技术组成部分，以及在线课程和网络研讨会，培养一个核心研究小组，专注于在MU创伤、伤害和残疾研究和培训项目中使用和整合电子能力；(2)促进利用电子能力，围绕乌干达创伤、伤害和残疾方面的主要国家优先事项开展相关研究，让受训者在开展其研究和数据收集项目时亲身使用信通技术，并学习适用于全球卫生研究中其他主题的经验教训；(3)在乌干达医科大学内部建立一个中心，促进对电子能力的理解和使用，以便在乌干达医科大学今后的研究和卫生研究培训中加以利用。
