Global Health Equity Scholars Program

计划摘要 我们启动计划的目标是继续我们的全球健康研究培训计划 名为全球健康公平学者(GHES)，旨在创建一个新的社区 研究人员、教育工作者和专业人员准备应对新的和新兴的全球 健康挑战。我们将在这一培训计划的最后九年的基础上，培养一支 新的研究人员将致力于他们的研究生涯来解决出现的健康问题 消除非正式人类住区(贫民窟)普遍存在的人类条件不平等现象。宁可 比一次解决一种疾病更重要的是，我们建议提供综合的、多学科的 以综合办法处理城乡非正式人居环境健康问题， 多年来由参与该项目的教职员工开发。本节目 将由四个美国合作机构(联盟)组成-耶鲁大学、斯坦福大学、 亚利桑那大学和加州大学伯克利分校，每所大学都由一位全球卫生领域的领导者领导 他们之间有10年以上的合作研究。一起，核心教职员工 来自这些机构的导师在21个国家的25个机构进行研究，代表 非洲、中南美洲、加勒比海、亚洲、太平洋和东部地区 欧洲。全球健康教育方案将涉及广泛的卫生研究主题，包括 艾滋病毒/艾滋病、新发和高后果传染病、非传染性疾病 (非传染性疾病)、妇女健康、环境健康、精神健康、人际暴力、物质 在贫民窟健康的框架内，虐待、伤害以及所有这些健康问题的相互作用。 培训将针对美国博士后研究员和博士后研究生以及中低收入者 国家(LMIC)博士后研究员。我们计划每年招聘9-10名实习生，其中60%来自美国 博士后研究员。学员将在LMIC现场度过8-12个月的时间，由 该联盟及其合作的LMIC导师。关于全球健康的说教工作坊 研究方法将通过面对面和在线两种方式进行。LMIC学员将花费2-3 在美国机构接受培训的时间是几个月，培训的方法不是他们的机构提供的。所有的 受训者将在整个培训过程中得到研究和职业指导，并进行跟踪 在完成其由全球高等教育系统资助的研究工作后用于职业发展。因此，在这个基础上， 计划，我们希望学员接触到全球卫生研究的一个重要主题- -健康公平--通过研究解决居住在脆弱人群中的健康问题 在非正式人类住区，并为他们提供机会成为这方面的专家 新的全球卫生学科。因此，这一培训方案的总体影响是创建一个 解决新出现的健康问题的全球卫生研究人员和领导人的新干部 由于小岛屿发展中国家不断扩大的非正式人类住区而产生的。

PROGRAM SUMMARY The objective of our LAUNCH program is to continue our global health research training program called the Global Health Equity Scholars (GHES) designed to create a new community of researchers, educators, and professionals who are prepared to address new and emerging global health challenges. We will build on the last nine years of this training program to create a cadre of new researchers who will dedicate their research careers to address the health problems that arise out of the inequity of human conditions prevalent in informal human settlements (slums). Rather than addressing one disease at a time, we propose to provide acomprehensive, multidisciplinary and integrated approach to deal with urban and rural informal human settlement health issues, developed over many years by the participating faculty members of this program. This program will comprise four US partner institutions (Consortium)--Yale University, Stanford University, University of Arizona, and University of California at Berkeley, each led by a leader in global health research with more than 10 years of collaboration among themselves. Together, core faculty mentors from these institutions conduct research at 25 institutions in 21 countries, representing regions of Africa, Central and South America, the Caribbean; Asia, the Pacific, and Eastern Europe. The GHES program will address a wide range of health research topics including HIV/AIDs, emerging and high- consequence infectious diseases, non-communicable diseases (NCD), women's health, environmental health, mental health, interpersonal violence, substance abuse, injuries, and the interaction of all of these health issues within the framework of slum health. Training will target US postdoctoral fellows and pre- doctoral students and low and middle-income country (LMIC) postdoctoral fellows. We plan to recruit 9-10 trainees/year with 60% of them as US postdoctoral fellows. The trainees will spend 8-12-months at an LMIC site under the supervisionof the Consortium and their collaborating LMIC mentors. Didactic workshops on global health research methods will be conducted both in-person and online. LMIC trainees will spend 2-3 months at US institutionsto undergo training in methods not provided at their institutions. All of the trainees will be provided with research and career mentorship throughout their training and tracked for career development after completion of their GHES-supported research work. Thus, under this program, we expect the trainees to be exposed to one important theme in global health research- -health equity--through research that deals with health concerns of vulnerable populations residing in informal human settlements, and provide them with an opportunity to become experts in this new global health discipline. The overall impact of this training programis, therefore, to create a new cadre of global health researchers and leaders who address the emerging health issues arising out of ever-expanding informal human settlements of LMICs.
