The overall goal of the Partnership for Native American Cancer Prevention (NACP) is to eliminate cancer disparities in Native Americans of the southwest. The University of Arizona Cancer Center (UACC) and Northern Arizona University (NAU) as NACP, partner with tribal communities to develop research, outreach, and training activities aimed at defining and eliminating obstacles to health equity in areas of Native American cancer incidence, mortality, and survivorship. The overall goal of the proposed NACP Training Core is to provide Native American students with mentoring and research experiences of importance to their own communities to help them achieve their individualized career development plans in cancer-related research. The proposed program will be jointly led by Northern Arizona University and UACC. The proposed program will partner with institutionalized and/or currently funded programs at NAU and UACC to enhance the opportunities for Native American students, faculty, and staff to develop their research training in cancer-related biomedical fields. The proposed core was developed based on the evaluation of previous NACP training activities. We plan to continue one-on-one student research experiences with faculty as well as establish a structured professional development plan for all those involved with NACP (students, staff, faculty). The achievements of the previous two-funding cycles include training 317 total students of which 189 were Native American. Our 6-year baccalaureate graduation rate for NACP Native American students for the past funding cycle was 63% which is substantially higher than the national average for Native American students at 38%. Additionally, we have secured external funding for activities that were developed by NACP allowing our Core to increase our training capacity. We propose to build on this success by implementing activities aimed at transitioning a greater number of Native American students into graduate programs. ' The synergy between the Outreach, Research, and Training Cores is key to addressing health disparities for Native American communities. The Training Core provides assistance for the Outreach and Developmental Cores for recruitment and retention of Native American students for projects that both train the students in research methods and utilize their talents to enhance the projects with their knowledge of culture and community. The Training Core facilitates a number of activities that allow students at all levels (from incoming freshmen to graduate students) to be involved in NACP projects. The Training Core will work directly with Native American student services as well as research and outreach investigators at both NAU and UA to identify and recruit Native American students for specific projects that match the talents of the students and the needs of the projects. Further, the Training Core will work directly with the students on independent development plans to assist them in their pursuit of advanced degrees that will train them to address cancer health disparities in their communities.

美洲原住民癌症预防伙伴关系 (NACP) 的总体目标是消除癌症 西南部美洲原住民的差异。亚利桑那大学癌症中心 (UACC) 和 北亚利桑那大学 (NAU) 作为 NACP，与部落社区合作开展研究、推广、 旨在确定和消除美洲原住民地区健康公平障碍的培训活动 癌症发病率、死亡率和生存率。 拟议的 NACP 培训核心的总体目标是为美国原住民学生提供指导 以及对其所在社区具有重要意义的研究经验，以帮助他们实现个性化 癌症相关研究的职业发展计划。拟议的计划将由北方联合领导 亚利桑那大学和 UACC。拟议的计划将与机构化和/或目前资助的 NAU 和 UACC 的项目旨在增加美国原住民学生、教职员工的机会 开展癌症相关生物医学领域的研究培训。所提议的核心是基于开发的 对以往 NACP 培训活动的评估。我们计划继续一对一的学生研究 与教师合作的经验，并为所有相关人员制定结构化的专业发展计划 与 NACP（学生、教职员工、教师）合作。前两个资助周期的成果包括培训 317 学生总数，其中 189 名是美洲原住民。我们 NACP Native 的 6 年学士学位毕业率 美国学生上一个资助周期的比例为 63%，大大高于全国平均水平 美国原住民学生的比例为 38%。此外，我们还为以下活动获得了外部资金 由 NACP 开发，使我们的核心能够提高我们的培训能力。我们建议在此成功的基础上再接再厉 通过实施旨在让更多美国原住民学生转入研究生的活动 程序。 ' 外展、研究和培训核心之间的协同作用是解决健康差距的关键 美国原住民社区。培训核心为外展和发展提供帮助 招募和保留美国原住民学生的核心项目既培训学生 研究方法并利用他们的才能通过他们的文化知识和知识来增强项目 社区。培训核心促进了一系列活动，使各个级别的学生（从即将入学的 新生到研究生）参与 NACP 项目。培训核心将直接与 NAU 和 UA 的美国原住民学生服务以及研究和外展调查员 识别和招募美国原住民学生来进行与学生的才能和学校相匹配的特定项目 项目的需求。此外，培训核心将直接与学生独立合作 制定计划，帮助他们攻读高级学位，培训他们应对癌症 社区中的健康差异。
