The overall goal of this proposal is to establish a Center of Clinical Research Excellence (CCRE) at the University of Hawaii (UH) as a complement to the existing RCMI Clinical Research Center (CRC). The objective of the CCRE is to increase the cadre of career clinical researchers in the State of Hawaii by supporting the career development of promising junior investigators, particularly those whose research focuses on health problems disparately affecting Hawaii's minority populations. The career development of these junior investigators will be fostered through collaborations with senior investigators offering expertise in both basic and clinical science, as well as through mentoring from distinguished (magnet), investigators recruited to the institution, who will also contribute to the research effort with the establishment of their own research programs. The establishment of a CCRE at the University of Hawaii will contribute to the goals of the Healthy People 2010 national agenda by supporting clinical research that addresses the health disparities of the minority populations in the State of Hawaii. To accomplish this objective, the specific aims of this proposal are: 1) To recruit distinguished (magnet) investigators to the University; 2) To support the development of junior UH faculty interested in clinical research careers; 3) To establish a state-of-the-art research laboratory faculty to support CCRE investigators, research fellows and staff; and 4) To contribute to and take the major lead in the overall development of a long-term program to foster clinical research at University of Hawaii. The situation at the University of Hawaii is unique. Far removed from the mainland USA as a result of its geographic isolation in the Pacific Ocean, the collaborations and affiliations that could naturally develop in a community setting with neighboring Universities are not possible in Hawaii. This CCRE offers the University of Hawaii a realistic opportunity to develop a strong clinical research program that will continue to expand beyond the duration of NIH support, through the recruitment of senior scientists, the successful career development of junior investigators, and the development of strong collaborations and affiliations with the University of Washington and other West Coast institutions. The CCRE will provide the necessary leadership and vision to harness the research investments made by the NIH for the development of the next generation of clinical researchers at the University of Hawaii.

该提案的总体目标是在夏威夷大学（UH）建立一个卓越临床研究中心（CCRE），作为现有RCMI临床研究中心（CRC）的补充。该中心的目标是增加夏威夷州职业临床研究人员的骨干队伍，支持有前途的初级研究人员的职业发展，特别是那些研究重点是影响夏威夷少数民族人口的不同健康问题的研究人员。这些初级研究人员的职业发展将通过与提供基础和临床科学专业知识的高级研究人员的合作，以及通过该机构招募的杰出（磁铁）研究人员的指导来促进，这些研究人员也将通过建立自己的研究项目为研究工作做出贡献。在夏威夷大学建立少数民族健康中心，将通过支持临床研究，解决夏威夷州少数民族人口的健康差异问题，有助于实现《2010年健康人国家议程》的目标。为了实现这一目标，本提案的具体目标是：1)为大学招募杰出的（磁铁）研究人员；2)支持对临床研究事业感兴趣的休斯敦大学初级教师的发展；3)建立一支最先进的研究实验室队伍，以支持CCRE调查人员、研究人员和工作人员；4)为促进夏威夷大学临床研究的长期项目的全面发展作出贡献并发挥主要领导作用。夏威夷大学的情况是独一无二的。由于在太平洋上的地理隔离，夏威夷与美国大陆相距甚远，与邻近大学在社区环境中自然发展的合作和隶属关系在夏威夷是不可能的。该CCRE为夏威夷大学提供了一个发展强大临床研究项目的现实机会，该项目将通过招募高级科学家、初级研究人员的成功职业发展，以及与华盛顿大学和其他西海岸机构建立强有力的合作和从属关系，在NIH支持的持续时间之外继续扩大。该中心将提供必要的领导和远见，以利用国立卫生研究院的研究投资，为夏威夷大学培养下一代临床研究人员。
