Developmental Core (Core B)

迈阿密CFAR的使命是通过提供科学领导和开发一种 促进基础科学和临床科学(包括行为/社会科学)融合的基础设施； 促进教育和辅导，并与社区合作预防、治疗和治愈艾滋病毒/艾滋病。这个 发展核心(核心B)是迈阿密CFAR的最大组成部分，并提供主要机制 通过它，CFAR可以支持创新和协作研究，特别是基础研究和合作研究之间的研究 临床调查人员，协助指导和建立新的/初级调查人员并提供途径 供学生参与艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究。虽然核心B有广泛的使命，但其主要目标仍然是 支持初级和无资助的调查人员，并提供有效的指导。目标1.为以下目标维护计划 征求、同行审查和监督试点赠款，以支持初级、基础和 临床研究人员促进他们获得成功的校外资助。支持的目标将是：a) 初级调查员；b)艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究新手；c)促进 基础研究人员和临床研究人员之间的合作，包括新出现的研究机会；以及；d) 新招聘的UM教师从事艾滋病毒工作的研究活动。目标2.保持活力和紧张感 指导初级教员、研究员、高级博士后和少数族裔调查人员的指导计划 尤其是成功的独立职业生涯。保持初级/新人研究人员的成功 职业道路是CFAR的首要任务。因此，Core B将加强他们的导师计划 面向对基础、行为或临床艾滋病毒/艾滋病有兴趣的少数族裔和初级教职员工和实习生 研究。指导计划将在拨款撰写、研究方法和职业生涯方面提供指导。 开发并将初级调查人员与既定的研究导师联系起来。指导计划将 还注重为高级调查人员提供指导，帮助他们成为更好的导师。这些活动 为密歇根大学艾滋病研究的强大未来奠定基础，并支持新一代研究人员。

The Miami CFAR mission is to advance HIV/AIDS research by providing scientific leadership and developing an infrastructure that fosters integration of basic and clinical sciences, including behavioral/social sciences, promotes education and mentorship, and partners with the community to prevent, treat and cure HIV/AIDS. The Developmental Core (Core B) is the largest component of the Miami CFAR and provides the major mechanism through which the CFAR can support innovative and collaborative research, particularly between basic and clinical investigators, assist in the mentoring and establishment of new/junior investigators and provide a path for students to participate in HIV/AIDS research. While Core B has a broad mission, its primary goal remains to support junior and unfunded investigators and provide effective mentoring. Aim 1. Maintain a program for solicitation, peer review and oversight of pilot grants that supports the research of junior, basic and clinical researchers to promote their path to successful extramural grants. Support will be targeted to: a) junior investigators; b) investigators new to HIV/AIDS research; c) translational research that fosters collaboration between basic and clinical researchers, including emerging research opportunities, and; d) research activities of newly recruited UM faculty working in HIV. Aim 2. Maintain a vibrant and intensive mentoring program that guides junior faculty, fellows and senior postdocs, and minority investigators in particular, to successful independent careers. The maintenance of junior/new researchers on a successful career path is a primary mission of the CFAR. As a consequence, Core B will enhance their mentorship program for minority and junior faculty and trainees interested in a career in basic, behavioral or clinical HIV/AIDS research. The mentoring program will provide guidance in grant writing, research methods and career development and will link junior investigators to an established research mentor. The Mentoring Program will also focus on providing guidance for senior investigators to help them become better mentors. These activities lay the foundation for a strong future for AIDS research at UM and support for a new generation of investigators.
