DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This revision application will integrate a new Environmental Health Disparities Research Core (EH Core) into the existing community-academic research infrastructure of the Weill Cornell Center of Excellence in Health Disparities Research and Community Engagement (CEDREC). The EH Core will create an innovative collaborative infrastructure that will position CEDREC for the next generation of research that will intervene on environmental as well as clinical and psychosocial factors, while simultaneously beginning to train a cadre of academic and community researchers to address environmental contributions to health disparities. The EH Core will add a unique perspective to ongoing CEDREC research, facilitate dialogue between community-based organizations, local residents, and elected officials, and inform researchers, community members and policymakers through lectures, community forums, webinars, and didactic education. The primary aim of the EH Core is to provide CEDREC with the capacity to collaboratively examine environmental factors that drive health disparities and develop innovative and transdisciplinary solutions. CEDREC is comprised of 4 cores: 1) Research Core-provides methodological and biostatistical support to 3 ongoing clinical trials; 2) Training Core-provides rigorous training in research methodology to junior investigators; 3) Community Engagement Core-informs the development of new research and community-driven educational activities; and 4) Administrative Core-coordinates all programmatic initiatives. The Environmental Core will leverage these resources to create a vehicle for community and academic partners to jointly develop new research efforts to address environmental factors that drive health disparities. Drs. Boutin-Foster (Pl of CEDREC) and Charison (Co-PI) have recruited Dr. Beverly Watkins to serve as Director of the Environmental Core, who brings a track record of over 12 years experience in environmental health, environmental justice, community capacity building, and community-based participatory research.

描述（由申请人提供）：此修订申请将把新的环境健康差异研究核心（EH Core）整合到威尔康奈尔健康差异研究和社区参与卓越中心（CEDREC）现有的社区学术研究基础设施中。EH核心将创建一个创新的协作基础设施，使CEDREC为下一代研究做好准备，这些研究将干预环境以及临床和社会心理因素，同时开始培训学术和社区研究人员骨干，以解决环境对健康差异的影响。EH核心将为正在进行的CEDREC研究增加一个独特的视角，促进社区组织、当地居民和民选官员之间的对话，并通过讲座、社区论坛、网络研讨会和教学教育向研究人员、社区成员和政策制定者提供信息。EH核心的主要目标是为CEDREC提供协作审查导致健康差异的环境因素并制定创新和跨学科解决方案的能力。CEDREC由4个核心组成：1)研究核心——为3项正在进行的临床试验提供方法学和生物统计学支持；2)培训核心——为初级研究者提供严格的研究方法培训；3)社区参与核心-为新的研究和社区驱动的教育活动的发展提供信息；4)行政核心-协调所有方案倡议。环境核心将利用这些资源，为社区和学术伙伴创造一种工具，共同开展新的研究工作，以解决造成健康差异的环境因素。Drs。Boutin-Foster （CEDREC的Pl）和Charison （Co-PI）已聘请Beverly Watkins博士担任环境核心主任，她在环境卫生、环境司法、社区能力建设和社区参与性研究方面拥有超过12年的经验。
