项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Racial and ethnic minorities in the United States experience an alarming disproportionate burden of disease, especially in the southern region of the country, where Mississippi ranks lowest on many health indicators, the "Most Obese State," and. the "No. 1 Unhealthy State." Therefore, Jackson State University proposes to build an Exploratory Center of Excellence to address and understand health disparities of obesity in collaboration with Its partners, the University of Alabama, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities in Mississippi. The Center will focus on understanding minority health disparities through intensive, multidisciplinary research projects and approaches designed to accelerate the translation of research findings into improvements in patient care, community health, and education and training of current and future health disparity researchers and practitioners. The overarching objective will be to reduce health disparities in obesity and to accelerate the translation of research findings to improve health outcomes and quality of life for at-risk populations, adult ethnic minorities who reside In Mississippi. The Specified Aims are to: 1) develop and maintain an administrative and institutional infrastructure to support the project as a whole; 2) advance scientific understanding of the interrelationship between abdominal obesity and genetics; 3) carry out translational research that will contribute to knowledge and eliminate health disparities; 4) provide exemplary research training and education activities to students and junior faculty from health disparity populations to increase the numbers of well trained researchers from minority and health disparity populations; and. 5) to engage minority and health disparity communities in effective and sustainable partnerships and activities for improving the health of their communities, increasing the numbers of individuals from minority and health disparity populations engaged in research activities for increasing health literacy and knowledge of health disparities. Most significantly, the Center will enhance the quality and quantity of research on minority health and health disparities, provide high quality research career development training, and strengthen community ties.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国的种族和少数民族经历了惊人的不成比例的疾病负担，特别是在该国南部地区，其中密西西比在许多健康指标上排名最低，是“最肥胖的州”。#21453;不健康的第一状态。“因此，杰克逊州立大学建议建立一个探索卓越中心，以解决和了解肥胖的健康差距与合作伙伴，亚拉巴马大学，和历史上黑人学院和大学在密西西比。该中心将专注于通过密集的，多学科的研究项目和方法，旨在加快研究成果转化为改善病人护理，社区健康，教育和培训当前和未来的健康差距研究人员和从业人员了解少数民族的健康差距。总体目标将是减少肥胖的健康差距，并加快研究结果的转化，以改善高危人群的健康状况和生活质量，居住在密西西比的成年少数民族。具体目标是：1）发展和维护行政和机构基础设施，以支持整个项目; 2）促进对腹部肥胖和遗传学之间相互关系的科学理解; 3）开展有助于知识和消除健康差距的转化研究;四、为来自健康差距人群的学生和初级教师提供示范性研究培训和教育活动，来自少数民族和健康差异人群的训练有素的研究人员; 5)使少数群体和健康状况不均衡的社区参与有效和可持续的伙伴关系和活动，以改善其社区的健康状况，增加少数群体和健康状况不均衡的人口中参与研究活动的人数，以提高健康素养和对健康差距的了解。最重要的是，该中心将提高少数民族健康和健康差距研究的质量和数量，提供高质量的研究职业发展培训，并加强社区联系。
