Training Program in Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV

摘要 该提案的总体目标是开发新的培训架构，其中， 塔夫茨大学的营养和代谢方面的专业知识可以集中解决目前的问题。 纳米比亚大学医学院在这一领域确定的挑战。我们将实现这一目标 通过对墨西哥国立自治大学健康科学学院的教员和研究员进行短期和长期培训， （医学，护理和公共卫生）。UNAM医学院是一个年轻，充满活力和理想主义的机构 而且这个节目宣布的时机非常好。现在建立这样一个培训计划将使我们能够 将其提供的艾滋病毒营养和代谢方面的研究培训纳入 随着UNAM医学院的发展和壮大，该培训方案的重点是由 墨西哥国立自治大学医学院的全体教职员工和培训计划提案已经得到了满足 热情和乐观，支持在墨西哥国立自治大学实施该计划的需要和愿望。我们 建议从墨西哥国立自治大学招募和培训艾滋病毒营养和代谢领域的新研究人员， 参与翻译本营养和代谢研究结果的能力 程序开发。我们建议制定一项计划，建立能力，以支持可持续的 研究培训计划在未来通过培训研究人员谁将能够获得独立的资金。 拟议的培训计划反映了塔夫茨大学与 墨西哥国立自治大学，对改善人口健康的创新手段有着令人信服和一致的兴趣 包括了解和改善营养和代谢健康的方法， 艾滋病毒的流行率和更高的贫困率。 具体目标是： 目标1：实施短期（3-6个月）和长期（学位）的营养和代谢培训， 艾滋病毒在塔夫茨为研究员从联苏特派团，护理和公共卫生学院。 目标2：促进和实施学员的研究成果转化为项目的发展， 艾滋病毒的营养和代谢政策。 目标3：加强和建设墨西哥国立自治大学的机构能力，以便在营养和 HIV代谢

Abstract The overarching goal of this proposal is to develop novel architecture for training, wherein the breadth of expertise in Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV that exists at Tufts can be focused on solving current challenges identified in this area at the University of Namibia School of Medicine. We will accomplish this goal through the short and long term training of Faculty and fellows from the Schools of Health Science at UNAM (Medicine, Nursing, and Public Health). UNAM School of Medicine is a young, vibrant and idealistic institution and the timing of this program announcement is superb. Founding such a training program now will allow us to integrate the research training in Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV that it will provide into the fabric of the medical school at UNAM as it grows and develops. The focus of this training program was selected by the entire faculty of the UNAM School of Medicine and the training program proposal has been met with enthusiasm and optimism that support the need for and the desire to have this program in place at UNAM. We propose to recruit and train new investigators from UNAM in the area of Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV with the ability to participate in the translation of the results of the results of this Nutrition and Metabolism research to program development. We propose to develop a program that will build capacity to support a sustainable research training program in the future by training researchers who will be able to obtain independent funding. The proposed training program reflects the productive and vibrant ongoing partnership between Tufts and UNAM, with compelling and unifying interests in innovative means to improve the health of populations including the means to understand and improve nutritional and metabolic health in a country with a high prevalence of HIV and even higher rates of poverty. The specific aims are: Aim 1: To implement short term (3-6 months) and long term (degree) training in Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV at Tufts for fellows from UNAM-SoM, and the Schools of Nursing and Public Health. Aim 2: To promote and implement translation of research results of trainees to development of program and policy in Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV. Aim 3: To enhance and build institutional capacity UNAM for sustainable training and research in Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV
