DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed Meharry Alcohol Research Collaborative (MARC) is a 3 year planning project designed to develop a collaborative research partnership between Meharry Medical College (Meharry), the oldest Historically African American Medical School in the country (since 1876), and a research research-intensive institution, the Center for Addiction and Behavioral Health Research (CABHR) at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. This proposal seeks to continue an established Meharry-CABHR collaboration (since 2000) to promote the following long terms goals: 1) to create alcohol research readiness in the Department of Psychiatry and among other collaborating faculty at Meharry and local universities, 2) to prepare Meharry faculty to perform independent alcohol research and to compete successfully for federally funded research grants in this field, and 3) create and disseminate alcohol research data and findings to the professional and non-professional community. To meet these long-term goals, the MARC program proposes the development of an Administrative Infrastructure to facilitate the development of high quality federally funded research on issues related to health disparities, particularly in terms of minority alcohol use and treatment of alcohol abuse and dependence. This infrastructure will support 3 core activities: a) Training Core: Institute a structured program of training for junior and senior Meharry faculty, Residents, and both pre- and post-doctoral students to increase capability in areas of research methodology relevant to alcohol and alcoholism, health services research methodology, statistical methodology, prevention and intervention research designs, and culturally competent measurement, b) Research Core: Providing support and mentoring for alcohol related pilot research projects specifically relevant to Meharry and local community needs, and c) Outreach Dissemination Core: Development of methods to disseminate alcohol research information to those serving the local minority community, including both professional (i.e., health and social service) and non-professional (e.g., clergy) providers. The ultimate goal of this application is to develop a solid program of research on minority alcohol research. At the end of the three-year project, success will be measured by the number of successful Rand K-series applications in addition to articles published in refereed journals.

描述（申请人提供）：拟议中的Meharry酒精研究合作（MARC）是一个为期3年的规划项目，旨在发展Meharry医学院（Meharry）之间的合作研究伙伴关系，这是该国历史上最古老的非裔美国人医学院。（自1876年以来），和一个研究密集型机构，成瘾和行为健康研究中心（CABHR）在威斯康星大学密尔沃基分校。该提案旨在继续建立Meharry-CABHR合作关系（自2000年以来），以促进以下长期目标：1）在精神病学系以及Meharry和当地大学的其他合作教师中创建酒精研究准备，2）准备Meharry教师进行独立的酒精研究，并成功地竞争联邦资助的研究赠款，3）创建并向专业和非专业社区传播酒精研究数据和结果。为了实现这些长期目标，MARC计划提出了一个行政基础设施的发展，以促进高质量的联邦资助的研究有关的健康差距，特别是在少数酒精使用和治疗酒精滥用和依赖的问题的发展。这一基础设施将支持3项核心活动：为初级和高级Meharry教师，居民以及博士前和博士后学生提供结构化培训计划，以提高与酒精和酒精中毒相关的研究方法领域的能力，卫生服务研究方法，统计方法，预防和干预研究设计，以及文化能力测量，B）研究核心：为与Meharry和当地社区需求特别相关的酒精相关试点研究项目提供支持和指导，以及c）外展传播核心：制定方法向为当地少数民族社区服务的人传播酒精研究信息，包括专业人员（即，卫生和社会服务）和非专业人员（例如，神职人员）提供者。这项申请的最终目标是制定一个坚实的少数民族酒精研究计划。在为期三年的项目结束时，除了在参考期刊上发表的文章外，还将通过成功的兰德K系列应用程序的数量来衡量成功与否。
