The International Core offers

  • Specialized administrative services that will enhance currently existing collaborations between the CFAR research community and investigators working in resource-limited settings. Examples include assistance with establishing federalwide assurances, translation of documents, development of protocols, informed consent forms and surveys, and mentoring of junior investigators who are interested in developing a research portfolio in developing countries with high HIV/AIDS burdens.
  • Funds for the conduct of HIV/AIDS pilot research projects in resource-limited settings that will facilitate the development of preliminary data in support of more extensive externally supported research projects and programs.
  • Travel funds for the exchange of scholars and for travel in support of the development of joint research projects on HIV/AIDS in resource limited settings.
  • An Annual Research Day, which presents the latest news and research in HIV/AIDS treatment and public health. The 2008 conference is scheduled on Tuesday, October 7, 2008. Please visit the Research Day Web page for details.
