DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There is a critical, national need for an increased number and diversity of health professionals who are actively engaged in clinical and translational research, working to eliminate health disparities and improve minority health. In response to this need, the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus, with NIH support (RR017589), has been a leader, having developed and implemented a successful academic program in clinical research, the Master of Science in Clinical Research (MSc) program. To continue and build on our success in increasing the number, quality, and diversity of outstanding Hispanic clinical and translational investigators, we submit this renewal application in response to PAR-11-325, Clinical Research Education and Career Development (CRECD) in Minority Institutions (R25). We propose to expand the availability of current resources to well qualified candidates from partner academic institutions and research centers in Puerto Rico and continue to foster collaborations with US mainland researchers. The specific aims of this application are: (1) to strengthen research education and career development in Puerto Rico through the implementation of the revised post-doctoral Master of Science in Clinical and Translational Research (MCTR) curriculum; and (2) to develop a diverse group of Hispanic scientists with the necessary knowledge and skills to pursue clinical and translational research, particularly in diseases and healthcare conditions that disproportionately impact minority populations. To further these aims, we propose to strengthen the current post-doctoral program by increasing collaboration with other research training programs, intensifying research mentoring opportunities, and continuing to evaluate our efforts. These enhanced opportunities will ensure that Scholars will participate in on-going faculty research, research seminars, and national conferences. They will also receive publication, presentation, research dissemination, and grantsmanship experiences. We will strengthen the research capacity of the MCTR program through highly trained and experienced faculty and investigators who have productive track records in clinical and translational research in the areas of interest. The formation of thi new generation of clinical and translational investigators will be encouraged by providing administrative, physical, and fiscal support. This Hispanic Clinical and Translational Research Education and Career Development (HCTRECD) program is being further strengthened by fostering partnerships with the community, industry and national research-intensive institutions interested in addressing significant questions in minority health issues. Our ultimate goal is to enhance the participation of minority health professionals in clinical and translational research that will have a significant impact on the health of the community, particularly underrepresented minorities.

描述（由申请人提供）：有一个关键的，国家需要增加谁是积极从事临床和转化研究的卫生专业人员的数量和多样性，努力消除健康差距，改善少数民族健康。为了满足这一需求，波多黎各医学科学校园的大学，与美国国立卫生研究院的支持（RR 017589），一直是一个领导者，已经开发和实施了一个成功的临床研究学术计划，在临床研究（硕士）计划科学硕士。为了继续和建立在我们的成功增加的数量，质量和优秀的西班牙裔临床和翻译研究人员的多样性，我们提交此更新申请，以响应PAR-11-325，临床研究教育和职业发展（CRECD）在少数民族机构（R25）。我们建议扩大现有资源的可用性，以满足来自波多黎各合作学术机构和研究中心的合格候选人，并继续促进与美国大陆研究人员的合作。这项申请的具体目的是：（1）通过实施修订后的临床和转化研究博士后硕士（MCTR）课程，加强波多黎各的研究教育和职业发展;以及（2）培养一批具有必要知识和技能的西班牙裔科学家，以进行临床和转化研究，特别是在不成比例地影响少数群体的疾病和医疗条件方面。为了进一步实现这些目标，我们建议通过增加与其他研究培训计划的合作，加强研究指导机会，并继续评估我们的努力，以加强目前的博士后计划。这些增强的机会将确保学者将参加正在进行的教师研究，研究研讨会和全国会议。他们还将收到出版物，演示文稿，研究传播和graneconomic经验。我们将通过训练有素，经验丰富的教师和研究人员谁在感兴趣的领域的临床和转化研究富有成效的跟踪记录，加强MCTR计划的研究能力。新一代临床和翻译研究人员的形成将通过提供行政，物质和财政支持来鼓励。这个西班牙裔临床和转化研究教育和职业发展（HCTRECD）计划正在通过促进与社区，行业和有兴趣解决少数民族健康问题的重大问题的国家研究密集型机构的伙伴关系得到进一步加强。我们的最终目标是加强少数民族卫生专业人员参与临床和转化研究，这将对社区的健康产生重大影响，特别是代表性不足的少数民族。
