In recognition of the need to create more institutions that have competitive research programs, to recruit more underrepresented individuals into cancer research, and to increase the attention to cancer health disparities research, we propose to expand the collaboration between New Mexico State University (NMSU) and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC). Three objectives will help us achieve our overall goal. First, we will increase the capacity of NMSU to conduct competitive research. This will be done through a collection of three basic science pilot projects and one basic science full project. Second, we will create a long-standing partnership in cancer research training and education. Our full undergraduate project proposal builds on a successful internship program between NMSU and FHCRC. Our graduate pilot project paves the way to reciprocal training of graduate students. Finally, an outreach proposal seeks to evaluate a way to bring public health intervention to communities suffering from cancer health disparities. The outreach proposal will test the efficacy of the promotora approach in fostering cervical cancer screening behavior change. A well established and rigorous review process will be used to identify additional collaborative projects in later years. An effort to expand outreach efforts in the state will also be developed based on a new faculty hire and an existing network of Cooperative Extension Service offices. Both institutions are enthusiastic about this collaboration and have worked steadily to increase the partnership strength. Mutual benefits will accrue to both institutions. NMSU has a majority of minority and underrepresented students, but not the expertise and experience to recruit and train students in cancer research. A major benefit of this grant will be to establish an infrastructure whereby underrepresented students have opportunities and resources to become cancer researchers. The FHCRC is deeply committed to increasing the number of minority and underrepresented group members involved in cancer research. Collaboration with scientists at NMSU also provides opportunities for new types of research that are of interest to FHCRC scientists. The five pilot projects and two full projects proposed in the developmental core are accompanied by three other cores: Administrative Core, Mentoring Core, and Planning and Evaluation Core. In addition, sound career development approaches will train future cancer researchers.

认识到需要创建更多的机构，有竞争力的研究计划，招募更多的代表性不足的个人进入癌症研究，并增加对癌症健康差异研究的关注，我们建议扩大新墨西哥州州立大学（NMSU）和弗雷德哈钦森癌症研究中心（FHCRC）之间的合作。三个目标将帮助我们实现我们的总体目标。首先，我们将提高NMSU进行竞争性研究的能力。这将通过三个基础科学试点项目和一个基础科学完整项目的集合来实现。第二，我们将在癌症研究培训和教育方面建立长期的伙伴关系。我们完整的本科项目提案建立在NMSU和FHCRC之间成功的实习计划的基础上。我们的研究生试点项目为研究生的相互培训铺平了道路。最后，一项外展建议旨在评估一种将公共卫生干预措施带到遭受癌症健康差异的社区的方法。外展提案将测试促进者方法在促进宫颈癌筛查行为改变方面的有效性。今后几年将利用一个完善和严格的审查程序来确定更多的合作项目。还将在新的教职员工和现有的合作推广服务办公室网络的基础上，努力扩大该州的外联工作。 两个机构都对这种合作充满热情，并一直在稳步努力加强伙伴关系。这两个机构将获得互利。NMSU有少数民族和代表性不足的学生占多数，但没有专业知识和经验，招募和培训学生在癌症研究。这笔赠款的一个主要好处是建立一个基础设施，使代表性不足的学生有机会和资源成为癌症研究人员。FHCRC致力于增加参与癌症研究的少数群体和代表性不足的群体成员的数量。与NMSU科学家的合作也为FHCRC科学家感兴趣的新型研究提供了机会。在发展核心中提出的五个试点项目和两个正式项目，还有三个其他核心：行政核心、指导核心以及规划和评价核心。此外，健全的职业发展方法将培养未来的癌症研究人员。
