The Development Core houses the Research Projects, and the Outreach and Training Programs, which are all led under the multiple PI model by faculty members from NAU and AZCC/UA. The Development Core also includes plans for faculty development and recruitment at both institutions. The overall goal of the Partnership is to address cancer health issues and disparities among local Native American (NA) communities by utilizing the combined resources of the Arizona Cancer Center and Northern Arizona University. Our approach is to 1) utilize the contacts and trust developed with tribal communities through outreach programs to identify critical cancer needs and to develop research projects to address these needs, 2) develop nationally competitive cancer researchers at NAU through collaborations with AZCC/UA, and 3) provide Native American students the opportunity to participate in cutting edge research through a culturally appropriate training program, building on the nationally recognized Native American education programs at NAU. Activities within Research, Training and Outreach, and plans for faculty recruitment and development are thoroughly intertwined. Faculty attracted into the program, and potential new faculty hires, will build NAU's community-based research capacity, will strengthen our laboratory research, and will serve as mentors for Native American students in the program. Community input shapes the research projects, and results are returned to the communities through formal presentations to the Navajo Nation IRB and the Hopi Health Center, as well as through chapter house meetings, interviews on local radio and TV, National Public Radio, and newspaper articles. The community relevance of the research serves as a recruitment tool for students, who receive laboratory training and professional development through the research projects. The Development Core is structured to respond to changing priorities of the partner institutions as they evolve.

发展核心容纳研究项目，外展和培训计划，这些都是由NAU和AZCC/UA的教职员工在多PI模式下领导的。发展核心还包括两个机构的教师发展和招聘计划。该伙伴关系的总体目标是解决癌症健康问题和当地美洲原住民（NA）社区之间的差距， 亚利桑那州癌症中心和北方亚利桑那大学的联合资源。我们的方法是：1）通过外展计划利用与部落社区建立的联系和信任，以确定关键的癌症需求，并开发研究项目来满足这些需求，2）通过与AZCC/UA合作，在NAU培养具有国家竞争力的癌症研究人员，3）为美国原住民学生提供 有机会通过文化上适当的培训计划参与前沿研究，建立在国家认可的美国原住民教育计划在NAU。 在研究，培训和推广活动，并为教师招聘和发展计划是彻底交织在一起。吸引到该计划的教师，以及潜在的新教师招聘，将建立NAU的社区为基础的研究能力，将加强我们的实验室研究，并将作为导师为美洲原住民学生在该计划。社区的投入塑造了研究项目，研究结果通过正式提交给纳瓦霍民族IRB和霍皮人健康中心返回给社区 中心，以及通过章房子会议，在当地电台和电视台，国家公共广播电台采访，和报纸文章。研究的社区相关性作为学生的招聘工具，他们通过研究项目接受实验室培训和专业发展。发展核心的结构是为了应对伙伴机构不断变化的优先事项。
