Following the rapid economic development and the severe environmental deterioration during the past three decades, human cancer risk has been increasing rapidly in China. Cancer now is the number one killer in China and the costs for cancer treatment in 2006 reached more than 20% of the annual total medical costs in China, and this number is actually considered to be seriously underestimated. Facing the grave consequence of the ever increasing cancer burden in China; realizing that nationwide deterioration in environmental conditions and human health could jeopardize the economic development, the Chinese government has taken major steps to prevent and control cancer. China, however, faces many challenges in confronting and battling the war against cancer. One of the major shortcomings for cancer prevention and control in China today is the severe lack of well-trained personnel in all major areas of cancer studies. The primary goal of this application is to secure the resources necessary to build a center of excellence in research and teaching in cancer studies within the Cancer Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (CI-CAMS, the designated China National Cancer Center), which is mandated by the central government to be responsible for China's cancer prevention and control. The resources will be used to (1) train scientists urgently needed in the CI-CAMS to develop appropriate strategies to better understand and more effectively respond to the emerging threat from the increasing cancer burden in China; (2) build an infrastructure that will allow CI-CAMS to function as a national center for teaching and research in cancer-related studies; and (3) strengthen China's National Cancer Registration Office to function as a national center of excellence for coordinating and monitoring China's cancer registration. The training goals will be achieved through trainees, selected from faculty and existing pre/post-doctoral programs at CI-CAMS, who will receive education and mentoring at Yale School of Public Health (YSPH) through long-term/intermediate/short-term training or workshops and internet-based tutorial system. The training will emphasize principles and methods in major areas of cancer epidemiology and biostatistics. This training program will be administered by a Program Faculty with representation from both CI-CAMS and Yale University. Yale University, YSPH in particular, has a strong history of prior research and training collaborations with China. We anticipate that trainees of this program will be uniquely qualified to be future leaders in the field of cancer research in China. RELEVANCE (See instructions):

在过去的三年里，随着经济的快速发展和环境的严重恶化， 几十年来，中国的人类癌症风险一直在迅速增加。癌症现在是世界上 而我国用于癌症治疗的费用在2006年达到了全年医疗总费用的20%以上 在中国，这个数字实际上被认为是被严重低估了。面对坟墓 中国癌症负担不断增加的后果;意识到全国范围内的癌症恶化， 环境条件和人类健康可能危及经济发展，中国 政府已采取重大措施预防和控制癌症。然而，中国面临着许多挑战， 与癌症作斗争。癌症预防的主要缺点之一， 目前中国癌症控制的主要障碍是在癌症研究的所有主要领域都严重缺乏训练有素的人员。的 本申请的主要目标是确保建立卓越中心所需的资源， 中国医学科学院肿瘤研究所肿瘤研究与教学 （CI-CAMS，指定的中国国家癌症中心），由中央政府授权， 为中国的癌症预防和控制负责。这些资源将用于（1）培训科学家 迫切需要在CI-CAMS制定适当的战略，以更好地了解和更有效地 应对中国日益增加的癌症负担带来的新威胁;（2）建立基础设施， 将使CI-CAMS成为国家癌症相关研究的教学和研究中心;以及 (3)加强中国国家癌症登记办公室作为国家卓越中心的职能， 协调和监督中国的癌症登记。培训目标将通过受训人员实现， 从CI-CAMS的教师和现有的前/博士后项目中选出，他们将接受教育， 通过长期/中期/短期培训在耶鲁大学公共卫生学院（YSPH）进行辅导，或 讲习班和网上辅导系统。培训将强调主要的原则和方法 癌症流行病学和生物统计学领域。该培训计划将由一个计划管理 学院代表来自CI-CAMS和耶鲁大学。耶鲁大学，特别是YSPH， 与中国的研究和培训合作历史悠久。我们预计， 该项目将有独特的资格成为中国癌症研究领域未来的领导者。 相关性（参见说明）：
