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）：这项名为“芝加哥南区癌症差异倡议”(CSCDI) 的提案寻求支持，以在 NCI 指定的综合癌症中心芝加哥大学综合癌症中心 (UCCCC) 和少数族裔服务机构芝加哥州立大学 (CSU) 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。为了响应采取行动增加医疗保健劳动力中代表性不足的少数群体的呼吁，作为减少差距和推进与社区相关的研究的机制，我们必须开发教育和学术途径，以增加本科生和研究生水平的知识转移。为此，CSCDI 的目标是： 1) 创建大学间合作，开发、实施和评估癌症差异课程，将其整合到选定的科罗拉多州立大学当前的公共卫生硕士课程以及加州大学普利兹克医学院 (PSOM) 课程中。 2）通过合作开发和增强两个机构现有的服务学习站点（即社区组织），为社区参与提供机会； 3) 培训 MPH 群体让服务学习场所（即社区组织）参与癌症预防、健康促进和癌症研究传播； 4) 利用 NCI 机制癌症教育计划 (R25E) 或其他联邦机构合作研究培训补助金，在 4 年补助期之后扩大教育和培训 迫切需要改善芝加哥的癌症治疗结果。具体来说，UCCCC 一直是突破性癌症研究和技术进步的领先机构。然而，社区层面的影响一直具有挑战性，研究成果向社区的传播也很薄弱。科罗拉多州立大学是一所城市公立大学，在教育、领导力和对芝加哥南区的承诺方面有着悠久的历史。科罗拉多州立大学最近开发了一个新的公共卫生硕士 (MPH) 项目，重点关注少数族裔健康和健康公平，为我们的合作伙伴关系提供了令人兴奋的机会。然而，尽管科罗拉多州立大学拥有强大的优势和影响力，但他们在癌症差异方面的研究项目和专业知识却很薄弱，而芝加哥南区的癌症差异正在上升。因此，CSCDI 是一种创新且及时的合作伙伴关系，它将在癌症领域将优秀的少数族裔学生和教师与全国公认的教育工作者和研究人员联系起来，以增加对研究癌症差异感兴趣的少数族裔公共卫生专业人员的数量。
