项目概要：培训和教育 虽然临床和翻译部门的少数民族教师可以提供创新的视角， 我们发现问题不成比例地困扰着有色人种，他们往往缺乏研究， 能力需要既严格评估这些问题的因果预测，并确定机制 消除健康差距的干预模式。此外，少数民族调查人员遇到主要的 成功竞争联邦研究资金的障碍，包括但不限于： 研究培训，缺乏专业发展机会，导师不足， 支持以少数群体为重点的研究（Shavers，2005年）。 因此，为了响应PAR-18-911，我们的目标是与汉普顿大学（HU）的教师合作， 提供混合培训和教育，以提高HU在癌症基因组学领域的研究能力， 健康差距，同时也提供了严格的课程，介绍和先进的生物统计， 数据科学、临床基因组科学、流行病学、社区参与研究、健康差异 研究和临床研究方法。该课程将通过在线异步管理， 同步讲座加上密集的现场培训课程，在第二年至第四年的拟议 四年的伙伴关系。我们的目标是：1）成功实施在线癌症基因组学研究 培训和教育方案; 2）设计并成功实施现场研究培训教育 计划;以及3）对拟议的培训和教育计划的影响进行严格评估 加强研究能力建设，提高研究参与度和生产率。此外，胡将 提供广泛的见解和指导，以帮助培养包容性，多样性和公平的文化， 通过一系列面对面和虚拟讲座，为ISMMS研究人员提供培训。 总之，我们有信心，我们提出的全面的在线和现场培训， 教育计划将增加竞争力的成功联邦拨款提交的胡教师癌症 健康差异基因组学研究项目，同时也为他们提供了一个最佳的技能，他们可以 传播到更大的教师和学生的HU社区。

PROJECT SUMMARY: TRAINING AND EDUCATION PROGRAM While minority faculty in the clinical and translational sector may provide an innovative perspective from which we identify problems disproportionately plaguing populations of color, they often lack the research capacity needed to both rigorously evaluate the causal predictors of these problems and identify mechanistic modes of intervention for the elimination of health disparities. Moreover, minority investigators encounter major barriers to successful competition for federal research funding, which include but are not limited to: inadequate research training, a lack of opportunities for professional development, insufficient mentorship, and inadequate support for research focused on minority populations (Shavers, 2005). Thus, in response to PAR-18-911, our goal is to partner with Hampton University (HU) faculty in order to provide hybrid training and education to increase HU research capacity in the area of cancer genomics and health disparities, while also providing a rigorous curriculum in introductory and advanced biostatistics and data science, clinical genome science, epidemiology, community-engaged research, health disparities research, and clinical research methods. The curriculum will be administered through online asynchronous and synchronous lectures coupled with intensive on-site training sessions in Years 2 through 4 of the proposed four-year partnership. Our objectives are to: 1) successfully implement the online cancer genomics research training and education program; 2) design and successfully implement the on-site research training education program; and 3) conduct a rigorous evaluation of the impact of the proposed training and education program on building research capacity and increasing research engagement and productivity. Additionally, HU will be providing extensive insight and guidance to help foster a culture of inclusion, diversity, and equity among members of the ISMMS research workforce through a series of in-person and virtual lectures. In summary, we are confident that our proposed, comprehensive, online and on-site training and education program will increase the competitive success of federal grant submissions by HU faculty for cancer health disparities genomics research projects, while also providing them with an optimal skill-set that they can disseminate to the larger HU community of faculty and students.
