实施阶段癌症培训试点计划 摘要 少数民族在基础、临床和行为研究中的代表性不足被视为一个问题。 这是解决癌症差异和将少数群体纳入临床试验的重大障碍。 因此，有必要培养一支种族和族裔多样、训练有素的科学家队伍。癌症 UF-FAMU佛罗里达少数民族癌症研究与培训中心的研究培训部分是 建议向大学本科生、学士后和硕士后学生提供信息，并提高他们的文化敏感性 学生需要减少不成比例的前列腺癌（CAP）的负担在少数民族人口 通过基础临床和行为研究在推行阶段，我们会完成 以下目标：（1）实施先进的CaP研究培训计划，将促进职业生涯 UF和FAMU URM学生的发展;（2）建立AR计划在培养 CaP奖学金和职业生涯通过跟踪AR学员和导师纵向10年。AR计划 建立在我们以前的研究培训计划的成功，特别是佛罗里达前列腺癌 杰出领导者研究培训机会（ReTOOL）计划（DAMD W81 XWH-12-1-0083）。 AR计划将允许UF-FAMU团队收集初步数据，以提交极具竞争力的资助 申请NIH/NCI癌症教育（R25）和培训（T32）赠款。

IMPLEMENTATION STAGE CANCER TRAINING PILOT PROGRAM Abstract The underrepresentation of minorities in basic, clinical, and behavioral research has been viewed as a significant barrier to addressing cancer disparities and the inclusion of minority populations in clinical trials. Thus, there is a need to develop a cadre of racially and ethnically diverse, well-trained scientists. The cancer research training component of the UF-FAMU Florida Minority Cancer Research & Training Center is proposed to apprise and culturally sensitize URM undergraduate, post-baccalaureate, and post-masters students of the need to reduce the disproportionate prostate cancer (CAP) burden in minority populations through basic, clinical, and behavioral research. During the implementation stage, we will accomplish the following aims: (1) implement an advanced CaP research training program that will foster the career development of UF and FAMU URM students; and (2) establish the efficacy of the AR program in fostering CaP scholarship and careers by tracking AR trainees and mentors longitudinally for 10 years. The AR program builds on the success of our previous research training programs, in particular the Florida Prostate Cancer Research Training Opportunities for Outstanding Leaders (ReTOOL) Program (DAMD W81XWH-12-1-0083). The AR program will allow the UF-FAMU team to gather preliminary data to submit highly competitive grant applications for the NIH/NCI cancer education (R25) and training (T32) grants.
