DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal entitled the Chicago Southside Cancer Disparities Initiative (CSCDI) seeks support to form a partnership between the University of Chicago Comprehensive Cancer Center (UCCCC), a NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center, and Chicago State University (CSU), a minority serving institution, to develop an infrastructure for cancer education, training and outreach. Abiding to the call for action to increase underrepresented minorities in the health care workforce as a mechanism to reduce disparities and advance research pertinent to the community, it is critical that we develop educational and academic pathways to increase knowledge transfer at the undergraduate and graduate levels. To this end, the CSCDI's objectives are to: 1) Create an Inter-University collaboration to develop, implement and evaluate cancer disparities curriculum to be integrated within selected CSU's current MPH curriculum as well as UC's Pritzker School of Medicine's (PSOM) curriculum. 2) Provide opportunities for community involvement through collaboratively developing and enhancing existing service learning sites(i.e. community organization) at both institutions; 3) Train MPH cohorts to engage service learning sites(i.e. community organization) in cancer prevention, health promotion and dissemination of cancer research; and 4) Expand education and training beyond the 4-year grant period by utilizing an NCI mechanism Cancer Education Program (R25E) or other federal agency collaborative research training grant There is a pressing need to improve cancer outcomes in Chicago. Specifically, UCCCC has been a leading institution for groundbreaking cancer research and technological advances. However, impact at the community level has been challenging and research dissemination into communities has been weak. CSU, an urban public University has had a long history of education, leadership and commitment to the Chicago's Southside. CSU has recently developed a new Master of Public Health (MPH) program to focus on minority health and health equity, providing an exciting opportunity for our partnership. However, despite CSU's strengths and reach, their research program and expertise in cancer disparities are tenuous, while cancer disparities on Chicago's Southside are on the rise. CSCDI, therefore, is an innovative and timely partnership that will bridge outstanding minority students and faculty together with nationally recognized educators and researchers in the field of cancer to increase the pool of minority public health professionals interested in studying cancer disparities.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案名为芝加哥南区癌症差异倡议（CSCDI），旨在寻求支持，以在芝加哥大学综合癌症中心（UCCCC）（一家NCI指定的综合癌症中心）和芝加哥州立大学（CSU）（一家少数民族服务机构）之间建立合作伙伴关系，以开发癌症教育、培训和外展的基础设施。遵守呼吁采取行动，以增加代表性不足的少数民族在卫生保健劳动力作为一种机制，以减少差距和推进研究有关的社区，这是至关重要的，我们开发教育和学术途径，以增加知识转移在本科和研究生水平。为此，CSCDI的目标是：1）创建校际合作，以开发，实施和评估癌症差异课程，将其整合到选定的CSU当前的MPH课程以及UC的普利兹克医学院（PSOM）课程中。2)通过合作开发和加强现有的服务学习网站，为社区参与提供机会（即社区组织）在这两个机构; 3）培训MPH队列参与服务学习网站（即社区组织）在预防癌症、促进健康和传播癌症研究方面的作用;以及4）通过利用NCI机制癌症教育计划（R25 E），将教育和培训扩展到4年补助期之后或其他联邦机构合作研究培训补助金有一个迫切需要改善癌症的结果在芝加哥。具体来说，UCCCC一直是开创性癌症研究和技术进步的领先机构。然而，在社区一级的影响一直具有挑战性，向社区传播研究成果的工作一直很薄弱。CSU是一所城市公立大学，在芝加哥南区有着悠久的教育、领导和承诺历史。CSU最近开发了一个新的公共卫生硕士（MPH）计划，专注于少数民族的健康和健康公平，为我们的合作伙伴关系提供了一个令人兴奋的机会。然而，尽管CSU的优势和影响力，他们的研究计划和专业知识在癌症的差距是脆弱的，而癌症的差距在芝加哥的南区正在上升。因此，CSCDI是一个创新和及时的合作伙伴关系，将优秀的少数民族学生和教师与国家认可的教育工作者和研究人员在癌症领域一起，以增加有兴趣研究癌症差异的少数民族公共卫生专业人员的人才库。
