ABSTRACT: Disparities in cancer incidence, mortality and morbidity continue to exist within the Hispanic population. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in Puerto Rico (PR), yet cancer research awareness and opportunities remain somewhat limited on the Island. Nationwide there continues to be a paucity of Hispanic, including Puerto Rican, clinical and basic science faculty with a focus on cancer. This negatively impacts progress in reducing health disparities in the Hispanic population. The overall long-term obiective of the Training/Career Development Core of the Ponce School of Medicine/Moffitt Cancer Center (PSM/MCC) Partnership is to increase the numbers and success of basic science investigators and clinical research scientists focused on enhancing cancer research for the PR population. This training core will accomplish these goals through enhancement of the academic, research, and professional competence of both the underrepresented minority students and those serving these populations. The speciflc measurable objectives of the Training/Career Development Core are as follows: (1) to build a cancer research track for Ph.D. students at PSM to increase the number of basic science cancer investigators and enhance cancer research focused on the Puerto Rican population; (2) to build a clinical training pipeline of medical students and fellows to enhance clinical cancer, research and treatment of the PR population; and (3) to enhance career development of partnership junior investigators. To achieve these objectives we will capture eariy career PhD graduate students in Puerto Rico, immersing them in a cancer research environment. A reciprocal research exchange of PhD students from the MCC Cancer Center and integrated health disparities education will develop a strong network of basic scientists to address cancer disparities issues. Second, we will establish an oncology track for PSM medical students. Third, this Core will support a unique clinical research training experience for oncology fellows on the island. This novel oncology fellowship program will provide coordinated training in clinical trials and translational research at MCC, PSM, San Juan VA Medical Hospital and San Juan City Hospital. Fourth, the Core will support the| career development plans of the Partnership.faculty mentees to build research capacity at PSM. Networking ofi the ti-ainees and junior faculty through shared developmental workshops and long-term interactions will fully integrate the trainees and support establishment of successful cancer research careers on the island. Critical evaluation and tracking of the career paths of the trainees and junior faculty mentees will assess program effectiveness, and provide feedback for improving the education and training components of the Core. Successful outcomes from these goals will enhance the numbers and achievements of Puerto Rican cancer investigators, contribute to a long-term cancer research training infrastructure at PSM, and augment cancer research aimed at improving the diagnosis and treatment of cancer in the Hispanic population in both Puerto Rico and Florida. The Training/Career Development Core will complement and leverage the existing programs at both MCC and PSM to significantly enhance the overall Partnership objectives by providing a better trained workforce to conduct cancer related research with the momentum to create new research initiatives addressing the health disparities found in Hispanic populations.

抽象的： 西班牙裔人口中癌症发病率、死亡率和发病率的差异仍然存在。癌症 是波多黎各 (PR) 的第二大死亡原因，但癌症研究意识和机会 在岛上仍然受到一定程度的限制。在全国范围内，西班牙裔仍然很少，包括 波多黎各人，专注于癌症的临床和基础科学教师。这对进展产生负面影响 减少西班牙裔人口的健康差距。培训/职业生涯的总体长期目标 庞塞医学院/莫菲特癌症中心 (PSM/MCC) 合作伙伴关系的发展核心是 增加基础科学研究人员和临床研究科学家的数量和成功率 加强 PR 人群的癌症研究。该培训核心将通过以下方式实现这些目标 提高少数群体的学术、研究和专业能力 学生和为这些人群服务的人员。培训/职业生涯的具体可衡量目标 发展核心如下：（1）打造癌症博士研究赛道。 PSM 学生人数增加 基础科学癌症研究人员的数量并加强以波多黎各人为重点的癌症研究 人口; (2) 建立医学生和研究员的临床培训管道，以增强临床癌症， PR 人群的研究和治疗； (3) 促进合伙人初级合伙人的职业发展 调查人员。为了实现这些目标，我们将吸引波多黎各的早期职业博士研究生， 让他们沉浸在癌症研究环境中。两校博士生的互惠研究交流 MCC 癌症中心和综合健康差异教育将发展一个强大的基础网络 科学家们致力于解决癌症差异问题。其次，我们将为PSM医疗建立肿瘤学赛道 学生。第三，该核心将为肿瘤学研究员提供独特的临床研究培训体验 岛。这个新颖的肿瘤学研究金计划将提供临床试验和临床试验方面的协调培训 MCC、PSM、圣胡安退伍军人医院和圣胡安市医院的转化研究。第四， 核心将支持|伙伴关系教员的职业发展计划，以培养研究能力 PSM。通过共享发展研讨会和长期合作，建立青年教师和初级教师的网络 互动将充分整合学员并支持在以下领域建立成功的癌症研究职业 岛屿。对受训者和初级教员学员的职业道路进行批判性评估和跟踪 评估计划的有效性，并为改进教育和培训部分提供反馈 核心。这些目标的成功结果将增加波多黎各人的数量和成就 癌症研究人员，为 PSM 的长期癌症研究培训基础设施做出贡献，并增强 癌症研究旨在改善西班牙裔人群的癌症诊断和治疗 波多黎各和佛罗里达。培训/职业发展核心将补充和利用现有的 MCC 和 PSM 的计划通过提供 训练有素的劳动力进行癌症相关研究，并有动力创造新的研究 解决西班牙裔人口健康差距的举措。
