Geographical Management of Cancer Health Disparities Program (GMaP) P30 Administrative Supplement to Strengthen Research, Training, and Outreach

地理管理计划（GMaP）倡议是CCSG的补充，即

The Geographic Management of Program (GMaP) initiative is a supplement to the CCSG that is focused on strengthening cancer health disparities research and enhancing workforce diversity. This is accomplished by offering robust communication and dissemination of information to regional trainees, early stage investigators (ESIs), and potential students about the regional hub and opportunities that exist for them to enter biomedical research (especially cancer health disparities). These opportunities include: research stimulus awards, workshops, pilot grants and an expert grant review/mentorship program. Second, the creation of a virtual biorepository database reflective of racial/ethnic minority cancer site data available from across the region to be shared with regional trainees and students to create and stimulate new research. Lastly, as tracking outcomes of the hub are vital, we anticipate conducting a comprehensive survey evaluating GMaP supported career and research development opportunities and assessing potential sustainability of the existing infrastructure beyond funding from this final supplement cycle.
