The burden of racial and ethnic health disparities is most evident in the southeastern United States, where Black and Latino populations suffer the highest rates of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, cancer, and asthma. These chronic conditions are a primary cause of poor health, reduced quality of life, and premature death, and account for more than 50% of health care expenditures. Despite substantial reduction of some chronic diseases and risk factors over the last few decades, the Southeast continues to have the highest number of potentially preventable deaths for each of the five leading causes of death. Racial and ethnic minorities comprise 39% of the population of the Southeast (HHS Region IV), which includes nearly 15 million African Americans and 9 million Latinos. Minorities in the Southeast fare worse on many health indicators compared to other regions, in large part due to poor socioeconomic status, with more than 22% of Southeastern residents living in poverty. Effectively addressing pervasive chronic disease disparities will require interventions that consider the needs, priorities, and lived experiences of those disproportionately impacted. Research teams with expertise in social, environmental, behavioral, and biological disciplines must collaborate to develop and test multicomponent strategies aimed at the multilevel determinants that drive disparities. Via a new center - the Southeast Collaborative for Innovative and Equitable Solutions to Chronic Disease Disparities, we will bring together Vanderbilt University Medical Center, University of Miami, and Meharry Medical College to address to reduce risk factors for and disparities in diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and related conditions among African American and Latino populations in the Southeast. We aim to: Specific Aim 1: Establish the human and technical infrastructure to foster highly collaborative, transdisciplinary research collaborations focused on using technology and data science to reduce chronic disease disparities among African American and Latino populations in the southeastern United States. Specific Aim 2: Facilitate a regional, cross-institutional pilot awards program focused on chronic disease disparities that nurtures and supports career development, advances use of data science, technology, and bioinformatics to address the complex drivers of health disparities, and promotes inclusive excellence. Specific Aim 3: Propel novel health disparities research leveraging technology, individual-level and community- level social determinants of health data, and genomic and phenotypic data to prevent, treat, and manage diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity and related conditions in African American and Latino populations. Specific Aim 4: Partner with African American and Latino communities in the Southeast integrate their priorities into the Center’s infrastructure, and collaboratively develop, adapt, and test socially and culturally appropriate interventions to secure the earliest impact on eliminating chronic disease disparities.

种族和民族健康差距的负担在美国东南部最为明显，那里 黑人和拉丁裔人口患心血管疾病、糖尿病、肥胖症、高血压的比例最高， 癌症和哮喘。这些慢性疾病是健康状况不佳、生活质量下降的主要原因，以及 过早死亡，占医疗保健支出的50%以上。尽管大幅减少了 一些慢性病和危险因素在过去的几十年里，东南地区继续保持最高 五种主要死因中每一种的潜在可预防死亡人数。 少数族裔占东南部(HHS第四区)人口的39%，其中包括 近1500万非洲裔美国人和900万拉丁裔美国人。东南部的少数民族在许多方面的健康状况更差 指标与其他区域相比，很大程度上是由于社会经济状况较差，22%以上 东南部居民生活贫困。有效解决普遍存在的慢性疾病差异将需要 干预措施，考虑那些不成比例受影响的人的需求、优先事项和生活经历。 具有社会、环境、行为和生物学科专业知识的研究团队必须合作 制定和测试旨在推动差异的多层次决定因素的多组成部分战略。 通过一个新的中心-东南合作创新和公平的慢性疾病解决方案 疾病差异，我们将把范德比尔特大学医学中心、迈阿密大学和 Meharry医学院致力于减少糖尿病、心血管疾病、 东南部非洲裔美国人和拉美裔美国人中的肥胖及相关情况。我们的目标是： 具体目标1：建立人力和技术基础设施，以促进高度协作、跨学科 研究合作的重点是使用技术和数据科学来减少慢性疾病的差异 在美国东南部的非洲裔美国人和拉美裔美国人中。 具体目标2：促进以慢性病为重点的区域、跨机构试点奖励方案 促进和支持职业发展的差距，促进数据科学、技术和 生物信息学，以解决健康差距的复杂驱动因素，并促进包容性卓越。 具体目标3：利用技术、个人和社区推动新的健康差距研究-- 健康数据、基因组和表型数据的水平社会决定因素，用于预防、治疗和管理 非裔美国人和拉丁裔人群中的糖尿病、心血管疾病、肥胖症及相关疾病。 具体目标4：与东南部的非洲裔美国人和拉美裔社区合作，整合他们的优先事项 进入中心的基础设施，并协作开发、调整和测试社会和文化上的适宜性 采取干预措施，确保消除慢性病差距的最早效果。
