独特的文化、地理位置、历史和医疗保健环境结合在一起，产生了不寻常的模式 癌症发生在美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民中。 鹰的精神社区网络计划将是一个面向美国印第安人的全国性CNP 以及阿拉斯加原住民社区的大大小小、城市和保留地。我们的合作伙伴关系包括 学术癌症中心、原住民保健组织、学生组织和倡导 癌症组织。此外，我们的跨学科成员擅长解决全面的癌症问题。 从预防到临终关怀的控制。“美洲印第安人/阿拉斯加原住民癌症倡议” [UOI CA86098]从2000年到2005年作为NCI资助的18个特别项目之一实施 人口网络。该网络开展并评估了提高癌症意识的努力 在全国各地的部落国家和组织之间。印第安人/阿拉斯加原住民 癌症领导倡议[NCI UOI CA 114609]，在社区中被称为“鹰的精神” 从2005年到2010年提供资金，并增加了基于社区的参与性研究(CBPR) 处理与文化相关的教育、培训和研究。我们的新鹰精神社区 网络计划(SOE-CNP)将专注于转化性研究、临床试验和持续的CBPR。这个 这项为期五年的研究的目标是有效地协调和评估一个全国性的癌症研究计划 AIAN社区通过整合所有项目组成部分来解决这一人群中的癌症差异问题。这 多学科国家计划将继续努力减少癌症健康差距，通过实施 以及通过社区驱动的伙伴关系评估创新和文化上合适的研究。这个 SOE-CNP将包括四个部分：(1)行政；(2)研究；(3)外联；(4)培训。 研究基地是梅奥诊所综合癌症中心，该中心的PL是土著主任 癌症中心人口科学部的美国项目。

Unique circumstances of culture, location, history and healthcare combine to produce unusual patterns of cancer occurrence among American Indians and Alaska Natives in the United States. The "Spirit of Eagles Community Network Program" will be a national CNP with outreach to American Indian and Alaska Native communities large and small, urban and reservation. Our partnerships encompass academic cancer centers, Native specific health care organizations, student organizations and advocacy cancer groups. Furthermore, our interdisciplinary members are skilled at addressing comprehensive cancer control from prevention through end of life care. "The American Indian / Alaska Native Initiative on Cancer" [UOI CA86098] was implemented from 2000 through 2005 as one of eighteen NCI-funded Special Populations Networks. This Network conducted and evaluated efforts that increased cancer awareness among tribal Nations and organizations throughout the country. The American Indian/Alaska Native Leadership Initiative on Cancer [NCI UOI CA 114609], known in the communities as "the Spirit of Eagles" was funded from 2005 through 2010 and increased community-based participatory research (CBPR) addressing culturally relevant education, training, and research. Our new Spirit of Eagles Community Network Program (SOE-CNP) will focus on translational research, clinical trials, and continued CBPR. The goal ofthis five year study is to efficiently coordinate and assess a national cancer research program for AIAN communities by integrating all project components to address cancer disparities in this population. This multidisciplinary national program will continue efforts to reduce cancer health disparities by implementing and assessing innovative and culturally appropriate research through community-driven partnerships. The SOE-CNP will include four components: (1) Administrative; (2) Research; (3) Outreach and (4) Training. The research base is Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center where the Pl is the Director of Native American Programs within the Population Sciences section of the Cancer Center.
