DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a collaborative CAM research development capability enhancement program between City University of New York (CUNY) and Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. An area of strength for both institutions is in botanical studies, and this will be the focus of the project. Lehman College, CUNY will serve as the lead minority-serving institution (MSI), but other CUNY MSIs will also participate in the project. Lehman houses CUNY's Plant Science doctoral program, and has a number of faculty with particular strength in basic plant biology research. In addition, researchers at the New York Botanical Garden, located less than a mile from Lehman and a partner in CUNY's doctoral program, will participate in this research development program. Columbia University's Rosenthal Center brings an established record in clinical and basic science research in medicinal plants. The proposed program, headed by established collaborators Dr. Edward Kennelly (Lehman) and Dr. Fredi Kronenberg (Columbia), has two specific aims: developing collaborative botanically-oriented CAM research projects between CUNY and Columbia researchers for submission to NIH as R01 or R21 applications; and educating CUNY investigators on the NIH research grant application process. The program will be open to ten CUNY botanical researchers. The aims will be accomplished through a two-stage program of research development and priority setting. The research development stage will give CUNY and Columbia researchers a chance to learn about each others' work though a monthly seminar series. The CUNY researchers will attend two continuing medical education courses "Botanical Medicine in Modern Clinical Practice" and on nutrition "Nutrition and Health: State of the Science and Clinical Applications" to give them a broad view of how botanicals are used in the US. Additional opportunities for CUNY faculty to participate in workshops on grant writing, institutional review boards, and CAM-specific issues for scientific paper writing are described. In the priority-setting stage, CUNY faculty who have completed the first research development stage will be asked to develop a concept paper for an NIH research application. The concept papers will be reviewed by appropriate Columbia researchers, and up to three concept papers will be selected for intense development. Based on the research strengths at CUNY we anticipate that CAM-related research projects may be developed in the areas of ethnobotany, cancer chemoprevention, traditional Asian medicine, and metabolic engineering. We anticipate that within a year after the end of the project period, several R21 or R01 botanically-related CAM applications will be submitted to NIH.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是纽约（CUNY）和哥伦比亚大学内外科医师学院之间的CAM研究开发能力增强合作项目。这两个机构的优势领域是植物学研究，这将是该项目的重点。纽约市立大学莱曼学院将作为牵头的少数民族服务机构（MSI），但其他纽约市立大学的MSI也将参与该项目。雷曼学院拥有纽约市立大学的植物科学博士课程，并拥有许多在基础植物生物学研究方面具有特别优势的教师。此外，位于雷曼不到一英里的纽约植物园的研究人员和纽约市立大学博士项目的合作伙伴将参与这项研究开发计划。哥伦比亚大学的罗森塔尔中心在药用植物的临床和基础科学研究方面取得了良好的记录。该计划由Edward Kennelly博士（Lehman）和Fredi Kronenberg博士（哥伦比亚）领导，有两个具体目标：在CUNY和哥伦比亚研究人员之间开发以植物学为导向的CAM合作研究项目，以提交给NIH作为R 01或R21申请;以及教育CUNY研究人员关于NIH研究资助申请程序。该计划将向10名纽约市立大学植物学研究人员开放。这些目标将通过研究开发和确定优先事项两个阶段的方案来实现。研究发展阶段将使纽约市立大学和哥伦比亚大学的研究人员有机会通过每月一次的系列研讨会了解彼此的工作。纽约市立大学的研究人员将参加两个继续医学教育课程“现代临床实践中的植物医学”和营养学“营养与健康：科学和临床应用的现状”，让他们对植物药在美国的使用有一个广泛的了解。纽约市立大学的教师参加研讨会的补助金写作，机构审查委员会，和CAM的具体问题，科学论文写作的额外机会。在优先级设定阶段，完成第一个研究开发阶段的纽约市立大学教师将被要求为NIH研究申请编写概念文件。这些概念论文将由适当的哥伦比亚研究人员进行审查，最多将选出三篇概念论文进行密集开发。基于CUNY的研究优势，我们预计CAM相关的研究项目可能会在民族植物学，癌症化学预防，传统亚洲医学和代谢工程等领域发展。我们预计在项目结束后的一年内，将向NIH提交几份与R21或R 01植物学相关的CAM申请。
