DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary: The aim of this proposal is to establish an Institute for training and mentoring underrepresented minority scientists and those with disabilities by enhancing their research skills. The institute will be administratively and conceptually housed within the Brooklyn Health Disparities Research Center (BHDRC) and will benefit from the experience gained from the existing Summer Institute Program to Increase Diversity (SIPID) at the Center. The goal of the Center is to reduce health related disparities in minorities and immigrants in Brooklyn, New York and to increase diversity among the ranks of scientists towards alleviating health disparities. The goal of the Training and Mentoring Institute is to instruct underrepresented scientists in multidisciplinary approaches to research in cardiovascular health disparities. The Institute specific aims are: Specific Aim 1: To select qualified underrepresented scientists who have great potential to contribute to the state of current knowledge in cardiovascular disease research. Specific Aim 2: To train a diverse group of scientists in multidisciplinary research methods to address cardiovascular health disparities. Specific Aim 3: To mentor underrepresented scientists in order to transition into independent researchers Specific Aim 4: To provide under represented scientists with intensive individualized training and guidance in grant writing and peer review in order to enhance their capacity for success in their research careers. Specific Aim 5: To evaluate the effectiveness of the Training and Mentoring Institute in Collaboration with the Coordination Core. A team of multidisciplinary experts that have partnered to provide the didactic training and mentoring are a group of renowned scientists, many of whom already collaborate to conduct research in health disparities and have satisfactorily participated in the existing SIPID during the last 3 years. Mentors include senior faculty, established researchers and experienced mentors in the fields of clinical and basic cardiovascular research. Partnerships with community-based organizations will also aide in providing training in the conduct of community-based participatory research, an important and innovative approach to preventive medicine. It is expected that the work of the Institute will result in an increased number of underrepresented minority scientist cardiovascular disorders and health disparities. This increase in trained minority and scientists with disabilities will have the potential to resolve important research questions, especially for minority communities. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Project Narrative: This proposal aims at establishing an Institute for training and mentoring underrepresented minority scientists and those with disabilities by enhancing their research skills. The goal of the Training and Mentoring Institute is to instruct scientists in multidisciplinary approaches to research in cardiovascular health disparities. It is expected that the work of the Institute will result in an increased number of underrepresented minority scientist and scientists with disabilities that will be empowered to conduct outstanding research to address cardiovascular disorders and health disparities.

项目描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要：本提案的目的是建立一个研究所，通过提高他们的研究技能，培训和指导未被充分代表的少数民族科学家和残疾人。该研究所将在行政和概念上隶属于布鲁克林健康差异研究中心（BHDRC），并将受益于该中心现有的增加多样性暑期研究所项目（SIPID）所获得的经验。该中心的目标是减少纽约布鲁克林少数民族和移民之间与健康有关的差距，并增加科学家队伍的多样性，以减轻健康差距。培训和指导研究所的目标是指导代表性不足的科学家采用多学科方法研究心血管健康差异。该研究所的具体目标是：具体目标1：选择合格的代表性不足的科学家，他们有很大的潜力为心血管疾病研究的当前知识状况做出贡献。具体目标2：培养具有多学科研究方法的不同科学家群体，以解决心血管健康差异问题。具体目标3：指导代表性不足的科学家，以过渡到独立的研究人员。具体目标4：为代表性不足的科学家提供密集的个性化培训和指导，在拨款写作和同行评审方面，以提高他们在研究生涯中取得成功的能力。具体目标5：评估与协调核心合作的培训和指导研究所的有效性。合作提供教学培训和指导的多学科专家团队是一群著名的科学家，他们中的许多人已经合作开展健康差异研究，并在过去三年中满意地参加了现有的SIPID。导师包括临床和基础心血管研究领域的资深教师、知名研究人员和经验丰富的导师。与社区组织的伙伴关系也将有助于提供进行社区参与性研究的培训，这是预防医学的一种重要和创新的方法。预计研究所的工作将导致人数不足的少数民族科学家心血管疾病和健康差距的增加。受过训练的少数族裔和残疾科学家的增加将有可能解决重要的研究问题，特别是对少数族裔社区而言。
