This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. This project established the operational and research infrastructure for a Comprehensive Center for the study of Health Disparities in the area of HIV/AIDS. It is unique and important because for the first time the three accredited Medical Schools in PR (UPR School of Medicine, UCC School of Medicine, and Ponce School of Medicine) will collaborate as partners in a common pursuit. Some of the specific aims of the center are: 1) the enhancing of clinical and translational research through collaboration among these three schools 2) to establish this tradition or "culture of collaboration" for the future 3) to develop sustainable, replicable and culturally appropriate prevention and/or intervention research programs targeted to the Puerto Rican population to decrease the burden of disease 4) to develop and validate a series of culturally appropriate instruments to measure diverse variables such as but not limited to: sociodemographic, HIV risk behaviors, co-morbidities, adherence, stigma, history of violence and abuse; and to make them available to interested investigators and health care providers 5) to establish a Mentorship Program for juniors investigators with resources from both local a abroad (PR and US institutions)and to create the stimulating academic environment that will encourage students and fellows to pursue a career in health disparities research and in particular, HIV/AIDS research and 6) to enhance the opportunities for multidisciplinary research collaborations between the Island institutions and those with a more established research programs in the US mainland. During a Phase I the operational infrastructure of the Center will be established and one pilot project per institution will be supported. During the Phase II, these pilot project will become research projects and new young investigators will join the Center through pilot projects. A strong Core componenet of faculty development will assure the growth and productivity of the center's investigators. Other Core activities will be a Data Center, a Lab, a CRC, a publications office with the assistance of a writer/editor, and the recruitment of three health disparities investigators.

该副本是利用资源的众多研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供。对该子弹的主要支持 而且，副投影的主要研究员可能是其他来源提供的 包括其他NIH来源。 列出的总费用可能 代表subproject使用的中心基础架构的估计量， NCRR赠款不直接向子弹或副本人员提供的直接资金。 该项目为艾滋病毒/艾滋病领域的健康差异研究综合中心建立了运营和研究基础设施。这是独特而重要的，因为PR（UCC医学院，UCC医学院和Ponce医学院）的三所认可的医学院将首次作为合作伙伴进行共同追求。 该中心的一些具体目标是： 1）通过这三所学校合作增强临床和转化研究 2）为未来建立这种传统或“协作文化” 3）开发可持续，可复制和适当的预防和/或针对波多黎各人口的研究计划，以减轻疾病的负担 4）开发和验证一系列文化上适当的工具来衡量不同的变量，例如但不限于：社会人口统计学，艾滋病毒风险行为，合并症，遵守，污名，暴力和虐待历史；并将其提供给感兴趣的研究人员和医疗保健提供者 5）为初级调查员建立指导计划，并拥有来自当地A国外（公关和美国机构）的资源，并创建令人兴奋的学术环境，以鼓励学生和研究员从事健康差异研究的职业，尤其是HIV/AIDS研究和 6）为了增强岛屿机构与在美国大陆具有更富裕的研究计划的岛屿机构之间进行多学科研究合作的机会。 在第一阶段，将建立该中心的运营基础设施，并将支持每个机构的一个试点项目。在第二阶段，这些试点项目将成为研究项目，新的年轻调查人员将通过试点项目加入中心。教师发展的强大核心组合将确保该中心调查人员的增长和生产力。其他核心活动将是一个数据中心，一个实验室，CRC，在作家/编辑的协助下，以及招募三个健康差异调查人员的出版社。
