迈阿密大学提出的D-CFAR拥有广泛的研究资金和明确的计划 跨越艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究兴趣的广泛领域的优势。发展的具体目标 核心是(1)在密歇根大学教职员工之间开展新的合作研究工作，并在 各种研究生培训计划在艾滋病毒/艾滋病方面的独特和相关的研究培训经验，(2) 为试点研究提供资金，这些研究将为同行审查的研究应用开发初步数据； 以及(3)为少数族裔、新教师或初级教师和对职业感兴趣的实习生制定导师计划 在基础、行为或临床艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究方面，鼓励参与现有的D-CFAR项目 国际合作。 用于实现这些目标的方法包括每年为试点项目提供发展赠款和 新出现的机遇。这些赠款将面向年轻的研究人员和艾滋病毒研究的新手，以及 促进行为学、临床和基础科学家之间的新合作。一项指导计划将是 提供给来自美国和国际毕业生/研究员的年轻和少数族裔调查人员和实习生 在基金撰写、研究方法和职业发展方面提供指导的课程。协作性 将通过在D-CFAR网站上列出D-CFAR成员的研究兴趣来促进这一努力， 张贴来自NIH和其他拨款机构的计划公告和RFA，并将 研究人员讨论潜在的合作并批准申请。将评估这一核心的进展情况 并根据需要重新定义其目标，以满足D-CFAR方案的总体目标。这个 开发核心将通过刺激为我们在密歇根大学的艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究项目提供附加值 新的想法和合作，增加了迈阿密大学和 对年轻的艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究人员和受训人员进行行为、临床和基础方面的培训和指导 科学研究。在国际上，D-CFAR将加强对外国科学家的培训，开发和开发 在目标国家培育新的合作研究项目，最终影响全球健康。 这些活动将为未来强有力的CFAR应用奠定基础。

The University of Miami proposed D-CFAR has extensive research funding and defined programmatic strengths that span a broad area of research interests in HIV/AIDS. The Specific Aims of the Developmental Core are (1) to develop new collaborative research efforts among UM faculty and to provide trainees in the various graduate training programs a unique and relevant research training experience in HIV/AIDS, (2) provide funding for pilot studies that will develop preliminary data for peer-reviewed research applications, and (3) develop a mentorship program for minority, new or junior faculty and trainees interested in a career in basic, behavioral or clinical HIV/AIDS research, encouraging involvement in existing D-CFAR projects and international collaborations. Methods used to achieve these goals include developmental grants offered annually for pilot projects and emerging opportunities. These grants will target young investigators and those new to HIV research and promote new collaborations among behavioral, clinical and basic scientists. A mentoring program will be provided to young and minority investigators and trainees from US and international graduate/fellowship programs to provide guidance in grant writing, research methods and career development. Collaborative efforts will be facilitated through listing the D-CFAR members' research interests on the D-CFAR website, posting program announcements and RFA's from the NIH and other granting agencies and bringing together researchers to discuss potential collaborations and grant applications. Progress of this core will be assessed annually and its goals redefined as needed to meet the overall goals of the D-CFAR program. The Developmental Core will provide added value to our HIV/AIDS research program at UM through stimulation of new ideas and collaborations, increased HIV/AIDS funding opportunities at the University of Miami and in the training and mentoring of young HIV/AIDS investigators and trainees in behavioral, clinical and basic science research. Internationally, the D-CFAR will enhance the training of foreign scientists and develop and foster new collaborative research projects in targeted countries with an ultimate effect on global health. These activities will lay the foundation for a strong future CFAR application.
