项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The specific aims of this project are to: (1.) Encourage ten undergraduate, graduate and health professions students who are from health disparities populations to pursue careers in basic science, biomedical, clinical, and behavioral health research fields; (2) Broaden the training of these students from health disparities populations to encompass international health issues; (3) Assist these students to participate in collaborative research initiatives with U.S. and international faculty; and, (4) Seek innovative approaches to address problems and/or hindrances associated with closing health disparities gaps. Using the combined resources of the University of Iowa's Initiative for Minority Student Development Program (Iowa Biosciences Advantage program) and the university's Center for International Rural and Environmental Health we will offer a program of 10-12-week short-term international research training opportunities for qualified eligible students each summer for five years. The Iowa Biosciences Advantage program will be a feeder program to identify eligible undergraduate students. Eight trainees will be undergraduate students and two will be graduate or professional students and all will be from populations that are underrepresented in the basic sciences, biomedical, clinical or behavioral research career Fields. MHIRT trainees will be offered research training opportunities at foreign institutions in Poland, Slovakia, Romania, China, and The Gambia, where we have collaborative relationships that have been developed over the last thirteen years through a Fogarty International Center training and research grant. These countries in Central/Eastern Europe present excellent opportunities to learn about issues related to health disparities populations. We will use new capabilities in Information and Communications Technology to assist in matching, monitoring, and evaluating trainees' international research training experiences in these countries. In this proposed program, MHIRT training is viewed as part of a comprehensive program of nurturing and developing individuals from health disparities populations to become productive biomedical and behavioral health researchers. RELEVANCE: Because of significant disparities in disease incidence, disease prevalence, morbidity, mortality, and survival rates in health disparities populations, as compared to the health status of the general population, there is a national need to increase the number of well-trained scientists from health disparities and underrepresented populations in the fields of biomedical, clinical, behavioral, and health services research.

说明（由申请人提供）：本项目的具体目标是：（1）。鼓励10名来自健康差异人群的本科生，研究生和卫生专业学生从事基础科学，生物医学，临床和行为健康研究领域的职业;（2）将这些来自健康差异人群的学生的培训纳入国际健康问题;（3）帮助这些学生参与与美国和国际教师的合作研究计划;（4）寻求创新办法，解决与缩小健康差距有关的问题和/或障碍。利用爱荷华州的少数民族学生发展计划（爱荷华州生物科学优势计划）和大学的国际农村和环境健康中心的大学的综合资源，我们将提供10-12周的短期国际研究培训机会，为合格的学生每年夏天五年的计划。爱荷华州生物科学优势计划将是一个支线计划，以确定合格的本科生。八名受训人员将是本科生，两名将是研究生或专业学生，所有人都将来自基础科学，生物医学，临床或行为研究职业领域代表性不足的人群。 MHIRT学员将在波兰，斯洛伐克，罗马尼亚，中国和冈比亚的外国机构提供研究培训机会，我们在过去13年中通过福格蒂国际中心培训和研究赠款建立了合作关系。这些中欧/东欧国家为了解与人口健康差距有关的问题提供了极好的机会。我们将利用信息和通信技术方面的新能力，协助匹配、监测和评估受训人员在这些国家的国际研究培训经验。在这项拟议的计划中，MHIRT培训被视为培养和发展健康差异人群的个人成为富有成效的生物医学和行为健康研究人员的综合计划的一部分。相关性：由于健康差异人群的疾病发生率、患病率、发病率、死亡率和存活率与一般人群的健康状况相比存在显著差异，因此国家需要增加来自健康差异和代表性不足人群的训练有素的科学家的数量，从事生物医学、临床、行为和卫生服务研究。
