International Mental Health/Developmental Disabilities Research Training Program

描述(由申请人提供)：与NIMH R25精神健康/发育障碍(MHDD)研究培训计划合作的精神病学、心理学、儿科学和遗传学方面的发展计划，以及由HRSA/MCH资助的大学发育障碍卓越中心(UCEDD)跨学科培训计划，以及波士顿儿童医院(CHB)的临床研究计划，正在寻求与土耳其安卡拉的两家主要外国机构合作，为D43 ICOHRTA国际MHDD研究培训计划的竞争延续提供5年的支持。美国教师包括顶尖的NIH、STAART/孤独症卓越中心、HHMI和麦克阿瑟基金会支持的调查人员担任导师和教师。一个主要目标是加强土耳其的MHDD研究，土耳其是一个符合ICOHRTA资格的中等收入发展中国家，人口年轻(7000万15岁或以下人口中30%)。世卫组织估计这大约是。发展中国家有12%的人口是残疾人，在4-18岁年龄组中，智力残疾占一半以上。该计划包括3个级别的高度精选的国际研究员，重点是中期初步奖学金(n=2；400万美国，600万MFC)和长期高级奖学金(n=3.12M，MFC)。受邀的夏季研究员提供了进一步扩大全国影响力、美国-MFC合作和网络的机会(n=2,150万，美国)。这项计划代表了对MFC研究和培训的更多重视。研究员通过工作中研讨会、电子学习计划、国家研讨会和美国导师的访问获得持续的指导。该计划包括共同的培训部分(核心课程、方法、诊断评估和负责任的研究行为)以及涉及指导研究的主要跨学科研究主题。该项目的优势包括其优秀的跨学科美国和MFC教师、研究的广度、美国和MFC机构之间扩大的合作、专门的指导以及通过国家和国际网络传播研究结果的计划。该计划与严格的评估挂钩，以期在国内、地区和全球产生更大影响。该计划一直是美国国立卫生研究院在土耳其的重要旗舰项目，旨在根据我们研究员的进步所表明的最高科学标准，在一个非常重要的十字路口地区加强合作。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The developmental programs in psychiatry, psychology, pediatrics and genetics in collaboration with the NIMH R25 Mental Health/Developmental Disabilities (MHDD) research training program and the HRSA/MCH funded University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDD) interdisciplinary training program and the Clinical Research Programs at the Children's Hospital Boston (CHB) are seeking 5-year support for competing continuation of the D43 ICOHRTA International MHDD Research Training Program in partnership with two leading Major Foreign Country (MFC) institutions in Ankara, Turkey. The US faculty includes leading NIH, STAART/Autism Center of Excellence, HHMI and MacArthur Foundation supported investigators serving as mentors and teachers. A major goal is the enhancement of research in MHDD in Turkey, an ICOHRTA eligible middle income developing country with a youthful population (30% of 70m under 15 years or younger). WHO estimates that approx. 12% of the population in developing countries is disabled, with mental disabilities constituting more than half in the 4-18 year age group. The program includes 3-levels of highly selected international fellows with emphasis on intermediate term inceptorships (n=2; 4m US, 6m MFC) and longer-term advanced fellowships (n=3 12m, MFC). Invited summer fellows allow opportunities for further greater national impact, US-MFC collaborations and networking (n=2, 1.5m, US). This program represents an increased emphasis in MFC research and training. Fellows receive continuous mentorship through work-in-progress seminars, E-learning programs, national workshops and visits by US mentors. The program included common training components (core curriculum, methods, diagnostic assessments and responsible conduct of research) as well as principal interdisciplinary research themes involving mentored research. The strength of this program include its excellent interdisciplinary US and MFC faculty, breadth of research, expanded collaborations between US and MFC institutions, dedicated mentoring and plans for dissemination of findings by means of both national and international networks. The program is linked to a rigorous evaluation for greater in-country, regional and global impact. The program has been serving as an important NIH flagship in Turkey for increased cooperation in a highly important crossroads region, based on the highest scientific standards as indicated by the progress of our fellows.
