As emphasized in recent reports, research training of minority health professionals is a critical need nationwide. In response, the Medical Sciences Campus of the University of Puerto Rico, with NIH support (RR017589), established a successful academic program in clinical research, the Master of Science in Clinical Research (MSCR) Program. In this renewal application, our immediate goal continues to be increasing the number and quality of outstanding Hispanic clinical investigators. A long-term goal of the MSCR Program is to establish research programs that integrate clinical investigations across multiple departments, schools and research institutes in Puerto Rico and collaborations with US mainland researchers. The ultimate goal is to enhance the participation of minority health professionals in clinical and translational research that will have a significant impact on the health of the community, particularly underrepresented minorities. Specific aims of the application are to: (1) Develop the research capacity of minority health professionals through the Master of Science in Clinical Research (MSCR) Program; and (2) Facilitate successful transition of MSCR graduates to research independence. To further these aims we propose to strengthen the current program by upgrading courses to strengthen didactic training, intensifying research mentoring opportunities, and continuing to evaluate our efforts. These enhanced opportunities will ensure that scholars will participate in ongoing faculty research, research seminars, and national conferences. They will receive publication, presentation, research dissemination, and grantsmanship experiences. Research mentors, chosen from the cadre of Medical Sciences clinical investigators, are fundamental to the success of the MSCR Program. Successful clinical investigators, mainly descendents of minority populations residing in the US, are accessible for long distance mentoring. The advancement of newly-minted clinical investigators will be stimulated by providing administrative, physical, and fiscal support. This career development program is being further strengthened by fostering partnerships with the community, industry and national research-intensive institutions interested in addressing significant questions in minority health issues. The ultimate vision of this Program is to prepare a cadre of Hispanic clinical researchers that will be ideally positioned to initiate original and important clinical investigations addressing the multifactorial health disparities between minority and non-minority populations.

正如最近的报告所强调的那样，对少数族裔保健专业人员进行研究性培训是一项迫切需要。 全国范围内。作为回应，波多黎各大学医学校园与美国国立卫生研究院 支持(RR017589)，在临床研究方面建立了成功的学术计划，硕士 临床科学研究(MSCR)计划。在这次续签申请中，我们的直接目标是 继续增加优秀拉美裔临床研究人员的数量和质量。一个 MSCR计划的长期目标是建立整合临床 对波多黎各多个部门、学校和研究机构进行的调查 与美国大陆研究人员的合作。最终目标是加强各国政府的参与 少数民族卫生专业人员在临床和转化性研究中将产生重大影响 关于社区的健康，特别是代表人数不足的少数群体。《公约》的具体目标 应用是：(1)通过以下方式发展少数民族卫生专业人员的研究能力 临床研究理学硕士(MSCR)计划；和(2)促进成功 MSCR毕业生向研究独立的过渡。为了实现这些目标，我们建议 通过升级课程来加强当前计划，加强教学培训，强化 研究指导机会，并继续评估我们的努力。这些增强功能 机会将确保学者将参与正在进行的教员研究、研究 研讨会和国家会议。他们将收到出版物、演示文稿、研究报告 传播，和恩赐经历。研究导师，选自 医学临床研究人员是MSCR项目成功的基础。 成功的临床研究人员，主要是居住在美国的少数族裔后裔， 可用于远程指导。新一代临床研究人员的进展 将通过提供行政、物质和财政支持来刺激。这份职业 通过促进与社区的伙伴关系，进一步加强发展方案， 对解决重大问题感兴趣的行业和国家研究密集型机构 在少数族裔健康问题上。该计划的最终愿景是培养一支拉美裔干部 临床研究人员将处于启动原创和重要临床研究的理想地位 处理少数民族与非少数民族之间多因素健康差距的调查 人口。
