DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM) proposes to establish a Center of Excellence in Partnerships for Community Outreach, Research on Health Disparities and Training (PROJECT EXPORT) to be called the Bronx Center to Reduce and Eliminate Ethnic and Racial Health Disparities (BxCREED). The proposal originates in the College of Medicine's initiatives in building academic-community partnerships through its Institute for Community and Collaborative Health and Hispanic Center of Excellence and through its long-standing relationships with Herbert H. Lehman College-CUNY (a Hispanic-Serving Institution), Health Force--Community Preventive Health Institute (a community-based peer education organization), the Clinical Directors Network (CDN), and AECOM' s affiliated teaching hospitals, Montefiore and Jacobi Medical Centers. The overall mission of BxCREED is to reduce and eliminate ethnic and racial health disparities in the Bronx, New York City, and the nation through promotion, coordination, and integration of health disparities research at the College of Medicine; community outreach, information dissemination, and collaboration; health disparities education for health professionals, community members, policy-makers and public officials; training of investigators at the undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral levels; and strengthening and expanding existing academic-community partnerships in the Bronx. The initial focus of BxCREED will be the primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention and treatment of the cluster of conditions associated with the greatest source of excess morbidity and mortality among African-Americans and Latinos in the Bronx and the nation--cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, and their complications. Because African-American and Latino populations suffer higher rates of the multiple risk factors that lead to death and disability (i.e., diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemias, obesity, smoking, and low educational and socioeconomic status, etc.) BxCREED will emphasize comprehensive, culturally- and linguistically-appropriate interventions that draw upon Health Force' s expertise in training and supporting lay peer educators in research and intervention. BxCREED will be guided by social ecology and family systems theories and the biopsychosocial model. Specific Aims will include the establishment of a new Bronx consortium Masters in Public Health degree program at Lehman College; an AECOM Health Disparities Faculty Development Fellowship culminating in a post-doctoral Masters degree in Clinical Research Methods through the AECOM Clinical Research Training Program; health disparities webcasts through CDN; and close collaboration with the AECOM Hispanic Center of Excellence and Diabetes Research and Training Center and the CDC-funded Bronx REACH 2010. BxCREED will establish Administrative, Research and Pilot Study, Training, Community Outreach and Information Dissemination, Health Disparities Education, and Shared Resources Cores.

描述（由申请人提供）：阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦医学院 (AECOM) 提议建立一个社区外展、健康差异研究和培训合作卓越中心 (PROJECT EXPORT)，称为布朗克斯减少和消除民族和种族健康差异中心 (BxCREED)。该提案源于医学院通过其社区与协作健康研究所和西班牙裔卓越中心以及与纽约市立大学赫伯特·H·雷曼学院（西班牙裔服务机构）、健康力量社区预防健康研究所（基于社区的同伴教育组织）、临床主任网络 (CDN) 和 AECOM 附属机构的长期关系，建立学术界伙伴关系的举措。 教学医院、蒙蒂菲奥里和雅可比医疗中心。 BxCREED 的总体使命是通过促进、协调和整合医学院的健康差异研究，减少和消除布朗克斯、纽约市和全国的民族和种族健康差异；社区外展、信息传播和协作；针对卫生专业人员、社区成员、决策者和公职人员的健康差异教育；对本科生、研究生和博士后水平的研究人员进行培训；加强和扩大布朗克斯区现有的学术界伙伴关系。 BxCREED 的最初重点将是对与布朗克斯区和全国非裔美国人和拉丁裔发病率和死亡率过高的最大根源相关的一系列疾病的一级、二级和三级预防和治疗——心脑血管疾病、糖尿病及其并发症。由于非裔美国人和拉丁裔人口面临更高的导致死亡和残疾的多种风险因素（即糖尿病、高血压、血脂异常、肥胖、吸烟、教育和社会经济地位低等），BxCREED 将强调全面的、文化和语言上适当的干预措施，利用 Health Force 在培训和支持非专业同伴教育者研究方面的专业知识 和干预。 BxCREED将以社会生态学和家庭系统理论以及生物心理社会模型为指导。具体目标将包括在雷曼学院建立一个新的布朗克斯联盟公共卫生硕士学位课程； AECOM 健康差异教师发展奖学金，最终通过 AECOM 临床研究培训计划获得临床研究方法博士后硕士学位；通过 CDN 进行健康差异网络广播；并与 AECOM 西班牙裔卓越中心和糖尿病研究与培训中心以及 CDC 资助的布朗克斯 REACH 2010 密切合作。BxCREED 将建立行政、研究和试点研究、培训、社区外展和信息传播、健康差异教育和共享资源核心。
