SFSU/UCSF Comprehensive cancer Partnership Program

旧金山州立大学（SFSU）和加州大学综合癌症中心（UCSFCC）提出了一项56年计划项目，包括两个关于前列腺癌和乳腺癌的研究试点项目，以及一个鼓励和准备少数民族护理学生获得癌症研究和健康差距博士学位的培训项目。它还包括社区外展和教育组成部分，以及纳入试点项目和计划的少数民族教师发展活动。拟议项目的主要活动之一是招聘活动，该活动将导致在SFSU立即雇用一名高级生物行为研究员，并在未来五年内雇用六名初级教师研究人员，所有这些研究人员将构成SFSU新生物行为研究中心的核心。旧金山州立大学校长已经承诺投入100万美元来帮助建设这个新中心，并拨出持续的人事资金来聘请一位终身高级教授来填补这个职位。这项建议是旧金山州立大学和加州大学洛杉矶分校委员会的教师和管理人员经过广泛规划的结果，他们仔细考虑了两所院校的优势和劣势，以及两所院校相互补充和加强工作的方式。本提案所选择的项目、计划和活动将使合作伙伴和周围社区都受益，这些社区的医疗保健网络服务很差。其中一个直接的好处就是将少数群体的个体纳入癌症预防试验。我们已经组建了一个杰出的项目指导委员会，由高水平的研究人员组成，他们支持为传统上在生物医学和生物行为研究人员中代表性不足的个人增加机会，并消除SFSU的教师和管理人员的健康差距，在UCSFCC和少数族裔社区之间建立更紧密的联系，与社区组织合作，开发利用SFSU/UCSFCC合作伙伴关系的综合资源和优势的新项目，并努力开发U-54项目赠款。

San Francisco State University (SFSU) and the University of California Comprehensive Cancer Center (UCSFCC) propose a 56 planning program comprised of two research pilot projects on prostate and breast cancer and a training program to encourage and prepare minority nursing students to earn Ph.D. degrees focusing on cancer research and health disparities. It also includes community outreach and education components as well as minority faculty development activities incorporated within the pilot projects and program. One of the major activities of the proposed program is a recruitment activity that will result in the immediate hiring of a senior-level biobehavioral researcher at SFSU and, over the next five years, the hiring of six junior-faculty researchers-all of whom will form the core of a new Biobehavioral Research Center at SFSU.. The President of SFSU has committed $1M to help build-out this new Center, and to allocating ongoing personnel funds for a tenured, senior level professor to fill this position. The proposal is the result of extensive planning among faculty and administrators at SFSU and the UCSFCC who took into careful consideration the strengths and weaknesses of both institutions and the ways in which the institutions could complement and strengthen each other's work. Projects, programs, and activities selected for this proposal are those that will mutually benefit both partners and surrounding neighborhoods which are poorly served by the health care network. One such direct benefit will be the enrollment of individuals from minority groups into cancer prevention trials. We have assembled an outstanding Program Steering Committee of highly productive researchers who have championed both increasing opportunities for individuals traditionally under-represented in biomedical and biobehavioral researcher and the elimination of health disparities Faculty and administrators from SFSU, to develop closer connections between the UCSFCC and minority communities, to work with community organizations to develop novel programs which take advantage of the combined resources and strengths of the SFSU/UCSFCC partnership, and to work toward the development of a U-54 program grant.
