UCLA/China CDC Training Program in Advanced Research Methodologies

中国已在全国范围内全面收集艾滋病毒诊断、治疗和预防方面的数据， 和艾滋病毒/艾滋病患者的生存，以及参与药物替代方案， 为监测项目和提供干预信息提供了宝贵的资源 战略布局然而，中国缺乏足够训练有素的研究人员， 这些庞大的数据集。因此，中国疾病控制中心（中国疾控中心）和 加州大学洛杉矶分校公共卫生学院（UCLA SPH）提出了一个联合双轨计划，以提高 中国疾病预防控制中心是中国主要的卫生研究机构。 中国疾病预防控制中心现在能够在合作提供先进的 研究方法培训。因此，我们在中国疾控中心提出双轨制方案 和加州大学洛杉矶分校的SPH以及在中国疾病预防控制中心举办的一系列先进方法学研讨会。 博士中国疾病预防控制中心的学员将在中国完成第一年的课程工作， CDC和他们在加州大学洛杉矶分校学习高级数据管理和分析的第二年， 他们将获得加州大学洛杉矶分校的公共卫生硕士学位。然后他们将返回中国完成 他们的毕业论文加州大学洛杉矶分校博士。学员将用两年半的时间完成 课程工作，然后在中国开发，实施，分析和发表研究报告 与艾滋病政策有关。来自加州大学洛杉矶分校和中国疾病预防控制中心的教师将担任博士 加州大学洛杉矶分校和中国疾病预防控制中心的学员委员会。根据拟议的共同培训 该计划，加州大学洛杉矶分校将支持在加州大学洛杉矶分校的活动和中国疾病预防控制中心将支持这些活动 在中国，包括博士。程序.

China has implemented comprehensive nation-wide data collection on HIV diagnosis, treatment and survival of HIV/AIDS patients, and on participants in the drug replacement programs, which provides an invaluable resource for monitoring the programs and informing intervention strategies. However, China lacks enough well-trained research personnel to be able to analyze these large data sets. Therefore, the Chinese Centers for Disease Control (China CDC) and the UCLA School of Public Health (UCLA SPH) propose a joint two-track program to enhance the research capability of the China CDC, which is the major health research institution in China. The China CDC is now in a position to take an active role in collaboratively providing advanced training in research methodology. Therefore, we propose a two-track program in the China CDC and the UCLA SPH and a series of workshops on advanced methodology at the China CDC. Ph.D. trainees at the China CDC will spend their first year completed course work at the China CDC and their second year studying advanced data management and analysis at UCLA, for which they will receive a MPH degree from UCLA. They will then return to China to complete their dissertation field work. The UCLA Ph.D. trainees will spend two and half years completing course work at UCLA, then develop, implement, analyze, and publish a research study in China relevant to HIV policy. Faculty from both UCLA and the China CDC will serve on the doctoral committees of both the UCLA and China CDC trainees. Under the proposed shared training program, UCLA will support the activities at UCLA and the China CDC will support the activities in China, including the Ph.D. program.
