Investigator Development Core Summary As the racial disparities in infections and deaths due to COVID19 highlight, health disparities in the US can play a large role in deaths from infectious disease as well as the chronic conditions that, until the pandemic, were the most urgent causes of disability and death in the US. Significantly reducing health disparities will require innovative and effective strategies that increase adoption of health-promoting behaviors among individuals from under-represented and low SES communities. Investigators in social and behavioral sciences are increasingly working with health science researchers to produce practical research and interventions that improve the health of individuals and communities. A recommended strategy for reducing health-related inequities is to increase the number of investigators (including those from underrepresented groups) carrying out ground-breaking research on both the causes of health disparities and ways to reach health equity. Investigators from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds and minority groups bring unique perspectives that can enhance understanding of social and structural causes of health disparities. However, these groups are underrepresented in the scientific workforce and often lack both the institutional resources and informal support systems to succeed. The mission of our Investigator Development Core is to expand DSU’s institutional capacity to conduct health disparities research by preparing a cadre of health equity investigators conducting transdisciplinary research projects that can improve health outcomes and reduce disparities, and who are actively engaged with community members throughout the lifecycle of their research. The IHER Center will carryout its mission by: 1) Establishing a competitive pilot grant program that will allow new and early stage investigators at DSU to generate preliminary data to support competitive grant proposals related to the social and behavioral determinants of health; 2) Fostering the productivity, advancement, and retention of health equity researchers by providing a robust professional development infrastructure to support publication of peer-reviewed articles, submission of grant proposals, and development of strong professional networks; 3) Working with the Community Engagement & Dissemination Core to empower PIs to engage communities in their research and disseminate health research-related information; and 4) Providing a robust, interactive educational program to enhance knowledge and awareness of minority health and health equity across the DSU community. The core will leverage the R01 and R15 grant experience of ID Core director with the experience of the RCMI PIs in leading research centers focused on supporting early stage investigators to establish successful research programs and win external funding.

研究者发展核心 总结 由于COVID 19感染和死亡的种族差异突出， 美国的健康差异在传染病死亡中起着很大的作用， 以及慢性病，在大流行之前， 残疾和死亡在美国。显著减少健康差距将需要 创新和有效的战略，增加采用促进健康的行为之间的个人 来自代表性不足和社会经济地位低下的社区。社会和行为科学的研究人员 越来越多地与健康科学研究人员合作，进行实用的研究和干预， 改善个人和社区的健康。 减少与卫生有关的不公平现象的一项建议战略是增加 调查人员（包括来自代表性不足群体的调查人员）对以下方面进行了开创性的研究 健康差距的原因和实现健康公平的途径。社会经济调查员 弱势背景和少数群体带来了独特的视角， 健康差距的社会和结构性原因。然而，这些群体在联合国系统中的代表性不足， 科学工作者往往缺乏体制资源和非正式的支持系统。 我们的研究者发展核心的使命是扩大DSU的机构能力， 开展健康差距研究，培养健康公平调查员骨干， 可以改善健康结果和减少差异的跨学科研究项目， 在研究的整个生命周期中积极参与社区成员。IHER中心 将通过以下方式完成其使命：1）建立一个有竞争力的试点赠款计划， DSU的阶段调查员生成初步数据，以支持与以下方面有关的竞争性赠款提案： 健康的社会和行为决定因素; 2）促进生产力，进步和保留 通过提供强大的专业发展基础设施， 出版同行评议的文章，提交赠款建议，并制定强有力的 专业网络; 3）与社区参与和传播核心合作， 参与者应让社区参与其研究并传播与健康研究相关的信息;以及4） 提供一个强大的，互动的教育计划，以提高知识和少数民族的健康意识 以及DSU社区的健康公平。 核心将利用ID核心主管的R01和R15赠款经验， 领先研究中心的RCMI PI的重点是支持早期研究人员建立 成功的研究项目和赢得外部资金。
