DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of New Mexico (UNM) proposes an innovative Center of Excellence titled the New Mexico Center for Advancement of Research, Engagement & Science on Health Disparities, or NM CARES HD. Based on an understanding of the common causes of health disparities across indigenous communities, NM CARES HD will apply a conceptual model that stresses three principles in interventions to eliminate those disparities: 1) community partnering, through community-based participatory research; 2) multifactoral, multilevel interventions within a cultural and social context; and, 3) translating evidence-based and community-based practice. NM CARES HD will build on the foundations of a strong set of established, collaborating institutional programs, nationally recognized expertise in several key areas, long-standing productive partnerships with Native American and Hispanic communities, and a diverse interdisciplinary collaboration to achieve its overall goal. That goal is to create a vigorous, self-sustaining, research center that advances the scientific base of knowledge about interventions and solutions to health disparities in Southwestern Native American and Hispanic communities. A strong team of investigators with senior, NIH- funded leadership has come together to meet the NM CARES HD specific aims. An Administrative Core, a Research Core, a Research Training and Education Core, and a Community Engagement Core together with two research projects will be the initial composition of the NMCOE it works toward meeting a set of specific aims and subaims. Those aims are to: 1. Establish a multidisciplinary research center that advances the science of interventions to eliminate health disparities among Southwestern Native American and Hispanic communities; 2. Enhance the ability of UNM researchers to compete for NIH individual, disparity- related research grants; 3. Build a partnership, dedicated to research on health disparities, between UNM investigators and community residents in Native American and Hispanic communities. In meeting these aims, NM CARES HD will develop innovative structures and resources to support the expansion of research on interventions to eliminate disparities in these communities. The combined resources and institutional commitments of new faculty, and pilot project and national conference support make success highly likely. RELEVANCE (See instructions):

描述（由申请人提供）：新墨西哥州大学（UNM）提出了一个创新的卓越中心，名为新墨西哥州健康差异研究，参与和科学促进中心，或NM CARES HD。基于对土著社区之间健康差距的共同原因的理解，NM CARES HD将采用一个概念模型，强调消除这些差距的干预措施的三项原则：1）通过基于社区的参与性研究建立社区伙伴关系; 2）在文化和社会背景下进行多因素、多层次的干预; 3）转化基于证据和基于社区的做法。NM CARES HD将建立在一套强大的既定合作机构计划，国家认可的几个关键领域的专业知识，与美洲原住民和西班牙裔社区的长期有效合作伙伴关系以及多元化的跨学科合作的基础上，以实现其总体目标。这一目标是创建一个充满活力，自我维持的研究中心，推进有关干预措施和解决方案的知识的科学基础，在西南美洲原住民和西班牙裔社区的健康差距。一个强大的研究团队与高级，美国国立卫生研究院资助的领导走到一起，以满足NM CARES HD的具体目标。一个行政核心，一个研究核心，一个研究培训和教育核心，一个社区参与核心以及两个研究项目将是NMCOE的初始组成，它致力于满足一系列具体的目标和子目标。这些目标是：1.建立一个多学科研究中心，推进干预科学，以消除美国西南部原住民和西班牙裔社区之间的健康差距; 2.提高UNM研究人员竞争NIH个人、差异相关研究赠款的能力; 3.新墨西哥大学调查人员与美洲原住民和西班牙裔社区的社区居民之间建立合作伙伴关系，致力于研究健康差异。为了实现这些目标，NM CARES HD将开发创新的结构和资源，以支持扩大对干预措施的研究，以消除这些社区的差异。新教师的综合资源和机构承诺，以及试点项目和国家会议的支持，使成功的可能性很大。相关性（参见说明）：
