California State University, Fresno (Fresno State) has established a partnership with the NCl-designated Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute (SBMRI) Cancer Center and is applying for a P20 feasibility grant. The goals of the partnership are: a) enhance cancer research potential at Fresno State (a minority serving institution), b) train cohorts of undergraduate and graduate students for future cancer research careers, and c) track students to evaluate program progress. The partnership will combine strengths of both institutions in offering cancer biology education, research, and training in the Fresno State curricula. It will facilitate an intensive exposure of Fresno State students to world-class SBMRI faculty, graduate and postdoctoral resources by mentoring students towards PhD degree programs. Moreover, it will help develop core facility expertise in cancer research techniques/instrumentation at Fresno State and enhance SBMRI accessibility to underrepresented minority student populations. The specific aims of the partnership are: (1) Study cancer incidence in the ethnically-prominent Central California. Two pilot projects will address NIH identified critical health issues-pancreatic cancer and breast cancer in the Hispanic population. Each project focuses on molecular analyses of cancers via screening by mass spectrometry/proteomics or NMR/ metabolomics. These will augment Fresno State resources and optimize data collection for faculty to successfully undertake cancer-related projects. (2) Train minority students during summer at SBMRI, UCSD, and at Fresno State within the cancer research projects during the school year. Central California has many unique features that impact the rates of cancer which justify the proposed partnership. The Valley has over 3 million people and several counties have a Hispanic populace in excess of 50%. Implications for specific cancers more common to Hispanics and the relative paucity of minority cancer researchers serve as the motivation for this long-term partnership between Fresno State and SBMRI Cancer Center. Both Internal and External Advisory Committees will provide strategic guidance by evaluating progress to achieve partnership goals in research, student training, and implementing plans for competitive funding of R01 and U54 grants.

加州州立大学弗雷斯诺分校（弗雷斯诺州立大学）已与NCI指定的桑福德-伯纳姆医学研究所（SBMRI）癌症中心建立了合作伙伴关系，并正在申请P20可行性资助。该合作伙伴关系的目标是：a）提高弗雷斯诺州立大学（少数民族服务机构）的癌症研究潜力，B）培养本科生和研究生的队列，为未来的癌症研究事业，以及c）跟踪学生评估计划进展。该伙伴关系将结合联合收割机的优势，这两个机构提供癌症生物学教育，研究和培训的弗雷斯诺州的课程。它将促进弗雷斯诺州立大学的学生密集接触世界一流的SBMRI教师，研究生和博士后资源，指导学生走向博士学位课程。此外，它将有助于发展弗雷斯诺州癌症研究技术/仪器的核心设施专业知识，并提高SBMRI对代表性不足的少数民族学生群体的可及性。该合作伙伴关系的具体目标是：（1）研究种族突出的中央加州的癌症发病率。两个试点项目将解决美国国立卫生研究院确定的关键健康问题-胰腺癌和乳腺癌的西班牙裔人口。每个项目都侧重于通过质谱/蛋白质组学或NMR/代谢组学筛选癌症的分子分析。这些将增加弗雷斯诺州立大学的资源，并优化数据收集，使教师能够成功地开展与癌症相关的项目。(2)在SBMRI，UCSD和弗雷斯诺州立大学的夏季期间，在学年的癌症研究项目中培训少数民族学生。加州中部有许多独特的特点，影响癌症的发病率，这证明了拟议的伙伴关系。硅谷有超过300万人，几个县的西班牙裔人口超过50%。对西班牙裔更常见的特定癌症的影响和少数民族癌症研究人员的相对缺乏是弗雷斯诺州和SBMRI癌症中心之间长期合作的动机。内部和外部咨询委员会将通过评估进展情况提供战略指导，以实现研究，学生培训和实施R 01和U 54赠款竞争性资助计划的伙伴关系目标。
