本文介绍了一个新的区域校园的学术健康中心从事以社区为基础的参与式研究（CBPR）的过程中，设置一个社区驱动的研究议程，以解决健康差距。校园坐落在不断增长的马绍尔和西班牙裔人口中，面临着显著的健康差距。2013年，在转化研究所的支持下，阿肯色州西北医学大学开始在该地区建立研究能力，目标是为校园制定社区驱动的研究议程。虽然许多研究人员从事某种形式的社区参与的研究，使用CBPR过程来设置整个校园的研究议程是独一无二的。利用多层次的参与，社区选择了三个研究领域：1）慢性病管理和预防; 2）肥胖和体育活动; 3）获得文化上适当的医疗保健。在短短的18个月内，CBPR合作取得了巨大的成果。合作撰写了10份赠款和5篇学术文章，分发了25份社区出版物和演讲。启动了9个研究项目和卫生方案。此外，许多跨专业教育和服务学习目标与社区驱动的议程保持一致，从而采取了实际行动来满足所确定的需求。
This article describes how a new regional campus of an academic health center engaged in a community-based participatory research (CBPR) process to set a community-driven research agenda to address health disparities. The campus is situated among growing Marshallese and Hispanic populations that face significant health disparities. In 2013, with support from the Translational Research Institute, the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Northwest began building its research capacity in the region with the goal of developing a community-driven research agenda for the campus. While many researchers engage in some form of community-engaged research, using a CBPR process to set the research agenda for an entire campus is unique. Utilizing multiple levels of engagement, three research areas were chosen by the community: 1) chronic disease management and prevention; 2) obesity and physical activity; and 3) access to culturally appropriate healthcare. In only 18 months, the CBPR collaboration had dramatic results. Ten grants and five scholarly articles were collaboratively written and 25 community publications and presentations were disseminated. Nine research projects and health programs were initiated. In addition, many interprofessional educational and service learning objectives were aligned with the community-driven agenda resulting in practical action to address the needs identified.
