PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT We propose to establish a Short-term "Research Education Program" to Increase Diversity in Health-Related Research, that aims to increase the number of underrepresented undergraduate and health professional students interested and engaged in health disparities research, particularly focused on reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Latino populations. The program will become part of our new NHLBI-funded (P50) Center for Population Health and Health Disparities (CPHHD), and it will be integrated into the CPHHD's current Training and Career Development Program. The UCLA CPHHD is conducting intensive home and neighborhood environment interventions to improve the food and physical activity landscape in East Los Angeles, California (East L.A.), and it uses interdisciplinary methods to understand and intervene on CVD disparities in this low-income, high-risk Latino community. The focus of the education and training is to create a new kind of health disparities researcher, who considers the micro, individual, family, systems and community level factors that contribute to CVD disparities in Latino populations and integrates bench and social science approaches. Our proposed program will take advantage of the CPHHD's interdisciplinary team of investigators from the fields of physiology, epidemiology, psychology, psychiatry, nutritional sciences, health promotion, health communications, biostatistics, and media and the arts. Over the course of the five years of the program, we will recruit and select 40 underrepresented students from the UCLA undergraduate program and from the UCLA Schools of Public Health, Medicine, Nursing, and Dentistry, as well as from other local universities, such as the University of Southern California (USC), to participate in the program. Each summer, four dyads comprised of an undergraduate student and a health professions student will be partnered with UCLA CPHHD investigators. Students will receive intensive one-on-one mentoring and will participate in seminars and workshops focused on health disparities research and policy, health professions preparation and training and career development, and they will be expected to write a report and present their work to the CPHHD investigators and at scientific and professional meetings. It is our expectation that the majority of the students will choose to enter a health professions program or research career focused on health disparities. We will conduct both process and outcome evaluation to determine program success.

项目摘要/摘要 我们建议设立一个短期的“研究教育计划”，以增加 健康相关研究，旨在增加人数不足的本科生 以及对健康差距研究感兴趣并从事健康专业的学生， 特别侧重于减少拉美裔人口的心血管疾病(CVD)。这个 该计划将成为我们新的NHLBI资助的(P50)人口健康和 健康差距(CPHHD)，它将被纳入CPHHD目前的培训和 职业发展计划。加州大学洛杉矶分校的CPHHD正在进行密集的家庭和 社区环境干预改善青岛市饮食和体育活动景观 东洛杉矶，加利福尼亚州(东洛杉矶)，它使用跨学科的方法来理解 并干预这个低收入、高风险的拉丁裔社区的心血管疾病差距。的关注点 教育培训就是要造就一种新型的健康差距研究者，谁 考虑微观、个人、家庭、制度和社区层面的因素 在拉丁美洲人口中的心血管疾病差异，并结合板凳和社会科学方法。我们的 拟议的计划将利用CPHHD的跨学科调查团队 来自生理学、流行病学、心理学、精神病学、营养科学、健康 宣传、健康传播、生物统计、媒体和艺术。在整个过程中 在五年的计划中，我们将从 加州大学洛杉矶分校的本科课程和加州大学洛杉矶分校的公共卫生、医学、护理学院 和牙科，以及其他当地大学，如南方大学 加州(南加州大学)，参与该计划。每年夏天，四个二元体组成一个 一名本科生和一名卫生专业学生将与加州大学洛杉矶分校的CPHHD合作 调查人员。学生将接受密集的一对一指导，并将参与 研讨会和讲习班的重点是健康差距研究和政策、卫生专业 准备和培训以及职业发展，他们将写一份报告 并在科学和专业会议上向CPHHD调查人员介绍他们的工作。 我们预计，大多数学生将选择进入卫生专业 专注于健康差距的项目或研究生涯。我们将同时进行流程和 结果评估，以确定项目的成功。
