DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed Tulane BIRCWH program is dedicated to promoting Women's Health research and the subsequent transfer of findings. In order to improve the quality and increase the quantity of Women's Health research, Tulane BIRCWH proposes to bridge the period between advanced training and research independence, as well as link professions, scientific disciplines, and areas of interest for selected scholars. The common theme running throughout the various research areas is patient-oriented research on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hypertension among women, particularly among African American women. The need to address women's cardiovascular health in Louisiana is dire, particularly in Orleans parish where the population is predominantly African American, an extremely high-risk sub-population according to local and national data. Tulane BIRCWH foci will include research that is basic, translational, clinical, and health behavioral and health services that pertain to CVD and hypertension in women. The proposed program will be housed within the Tulane Xavier National Center of Excellence in Women's Health (TUXCOE), one of only 14 National Centers of Excellence under the Office of Women's Health, Department of Health and Human Services. The Tulane BIRCWH will therefore enhance the existing collaboration with Xavier University, the only historically Black Catholic College and University in United States, by providing an interdisciplinary research training opportunity to Junior Faculty within both institutions. The administrative structure of Tulane BIRCWH comprises a Principal Investigator (Pt), a Co-Principal Investigator (Co- PI), and an Advisory Committee. Paul Whelton, MD, MSc, Senior Vice President of TUHSC, serves as the PI; and Jeanette H. Magnus, MD, PhD, Director of the Tulane Xavier National Center of Excellence in Women's Health, as the Co-PI. Dr. Magnus will serve as both Co-PI and Program Director (PD) for the Tulane BIRCWH. Drs. Whelton and Magnus contribute vast and pertinent experience in the areas of Women's Health, cardiovascular disease, mentoring programs, as well as interdisciplinary programs. The Tulane BIRCWH Advisory Committee members, all of whom represent a wide array of TUHSC leadership and research expertise, will greatly complement the PI and Co-PI/PD in ensuring Tulane BIRCWH's future programmatic success and impact. Additionally, an entire team of proposed mentors will provide the trainees with access to established research programs with a broad range of basic and applied biomedical and behavioral science and health services research, and across the schools within the TUHSC. In addition to the existing Tulane GCRC, a proposed Women's Health Resource Laboratory (WHRL) will complement these highly qualified and dedicated administrators and mentors in bridging the gap between the completion of training and an independent career in research addressing Women's Health for the IWHR Scholars. Tulane BIRCWH's deliberate breadth and dynamism ensures that the program team, including the collaborating departments, centers and institutes, form the inter-professional, intellectual and technical research base necessary to provide the fundamental training needed to produce the high caliber Women's Health researchers the program seeks to generate.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的杜兰BIRCWH计划致力于促进妇女健康研究和研究结果的后续转移。为了提高妇女健康研究的质量和数量，杜兰BIRCWH建议在高级培训和研究独立之间架起桥梁，并将专业，科学学科和选定学者感兴趣的领域联系起来。贯穿各个研究领域的共同主题是对妇女，特别是非裔美国妇女的心血管疾病和高血压进行面向患者的研究。在路易斯安那州，解决妇女心血管健康问题的必要性非常紧迫，特别是在奥尔良教区，那里的人口主要是非洲裔美国人，根据当地和国家数据，这是一个极高风险的亚群。杜兰BIRCWH焦点将包括基础研究，转化，临床和健康行为和健康服务，涉及女性心血管疾病和高血压。拟议的方案将设在杜兰·泽维尔国家妇女健康卓越中心（TUXCOE）内，该中心是卫生和公共服务部妇女健康办公室下属的14个国家卓越中心之一。因此，杜兰BIRCWH将加强现有的合作与泽维尔大学，历史上唯一的黑人天主教学院和大学在美国，通过提供跨学科的研究培训机会，在两个机构的初级教师。杜兰BIRCWH的行政结构包括主要研究者（Pt）、共同主要研究者（Co-PI）和咨询委员会。TUHSC高级副总裁Paul Whelton，医学博士，理学硕士，担任PI; Jeanette H。马格努斯，医学博士，博士，杜兰泽维尔国家妇女健康卓越中心主任，作为共同PI。Magnus博士将担任杜兰BIRCWH的共同PI和项目总监（PD）。惠尔顿和马格努斯贡献妇女健康，心血管疾病，指导计划，以及跨学科计划领域的丰富和相关的经验。杜兰BIRCWH咨询委员会成员，他们都代表了广泛的TUHSC领导和研究专业知识，将大大补充PI和Co-PI/PD，以确保杜兰BIRCWH未来的计划成功和影响。此外，一个完整的导师团队将为学员提供获得既定研究计划的机会，这些研究计划包括广泛的基础和应用生物医学和行为科学以及卫生服务研究，以及TUHSC内的各个学校。除了现有的杜兰GCRC，拟议的妇女健康资源实验室（WHRL）将补充这些高素质和专门的管理人员和导师在完成培训和一个独立的职业生涯之间的差距差距解决妇女健康的IWHR学者。杜兰BIRCWH的故意广度和活力，确保该计划团队，包括合作部门，中心和研究所，形成必要的跨专业，智力和技术研究基础，以提供生产所需的基本培训高素质的妇女健康研究人员该计划旨在产生。
