Research Core

亚裔美国人健康研究中心(CSAAH)的研究核心的研究努力都是针对一个单一的焦点--改善亚裔美国人的健康。主要的重点将是记录卫生保健差距，并通过生物医学、临床、流行病学和公共卫生研究确定其根源。社区外展计划、信息传播以及培训卫生专业人员、社区领导人和患者是与研究部分紧密结合的举措，以在缩小差异和改善亚裔美国人的健康方面产生最大影响。综合P60卓越中心(COE)得益于其与不同的调查人员、工作人员和医疗保健提供者的合作伙伴关系，这些人都有开展社区参与的卫生研究并为服务不足的人群提供临床护理和直接服务的既定记录，尤其是在亚裔美国人社区。 CSAAH的核心研究领域坚持反映CSAAH科学框架的三个中心主题。这些主题包括：1)了解社区的社会、文化、生物和环境背景以及这些因素之间在影响健康结果方面的相互作用；2)缓解和/或消除健康状况方面的差异；3)确保获得具有文化能力和语言适当性的保健服务。

The research efforts of the Research Core of the Center for the Study of Asian American Health (CSAAH) are all directed at one single focus - the improvement of the health of Asian Americans. The major emphasis will be in documenting health care disparities and identifying their origins through biomedical, clinical, epidemiological, and public health research. Community outreach programs, dissemination of information, and training health professionals and community leaders and patients are initiatives that are closely integrated with the research component to result in maximum impact in reducing disparities and improving the health of Asian-Americans. The Comprehensive P60 Center of Excellence (COE) benefits from its partnership with a diverse pool of investigators, staff, and health care providers, all of whom have an established track record of conducting community-engaged health research and providing clinical care and direct services to underserved populations, particularly in the Asian American community. CSAAH's core research areas adhere to three central themes that reflect CSAAH's scientific framework. These themes include: 1) understanding the social, cultural, biological, and environmental context of community and the interactions among these factors in influencing health outcomes; 2) alleviating and/or eliminating disparities in health status; and 3) ensuring access to culturally-competent and linguistically-appropriate health care services.
