美国国家癌症研究所（NCI）减少癌症健康差异中心（CRCHD）成立于2001年，旨在应对和消除癌症健康差异，同时增加癌症研究的劳动力多样性。在过去的二十年里，CRCHD已经产生了广泛的研究，培训，和社区外展活动，以解决这些总体目标，通过各种方案，包括持续伞的研究经验（治愈），合作伙伴关系，以促进癌症健康公平（PACHE），特殊人群网络（SPN），社区网络计划（CNP），CNP中心（CNPC）和患者导航研究计划（PNRP）。CRCHD，通过其治愈和现在的校内治愈（iCURE）计划，一直致力于培养下一代有竞争力的研究人员，他们的背景通常在癌症和癌症健康差异研究领域代表性不足。今天，CRCHD领导NCI的努力，支持研究培训和职业发展的经验，早在中学开始，并继续通过终身的轨道任命。CRCHD还开发了一个强大的基础研究重点在癌症的差异，最近已扩大到翻译差异研究和新的，经过认证的动物模型的产生，适合推进差异研究调查。此外，CRCHD已经建立了一个综合的网络基础设施，以补充和支持其差异研究和多样性培训工作，并在种族和民族多样性和医疗服务不足的社区提供癌症教育和外展服务。展望未来，CRCHD将继续坚定不移地努力，让我们更接近多样性和差异不再存在的那一天。
The National Cancer Institute's (NCI) Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) was established in 2001 with the purpose of confronting and eliminating cancer health disparities, while increasing workforce diversity in cancer research.Over the last two decades, CRCHD has generated a broad range of research,training, and community outreach activities to address these overarching goals through a variety of programs including the Continuing Umbrella of Research Experiences (CURE), Partnerships to Advance Cancer Health Equity (PACHE),Special Populations Networks (SPN), Community Networks Program(CNP), CNP Centers (CNPC), and Patient Navigation Research Program (PNRP).CRCHD, through its CURE and now its Intramural CURE (iCURE) programs, has been fully dedicated to training the next generation of competitive researchers from backgrounds typically underrepresented in the cancer and cancer health disparities research fields. Today, CRCHD leads NCI's efforts in supporting research training and career development experiences beginning as early as middle school and continuing through to tenured track appointments.CRCHD has also developed a robust basic research focus in cancer disparities,which has recently expanded into translational disparities research and the generation of novel, authenticated animal models appropriate for advancing disparities research investigations.Additionally, CRCHD has fostered an integrated networks infrastructure to complement and support its disparities research and diversity training efforts, aswell as provide cancer education and outreach among racially and ethnically diverse and medically underserved communities.Moving forward, the CRCHD will continue its steadfast efforts to move us closer to the day when diversity is a given and disparities no longer exist.
