DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Florida A&M University (FAMU) College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (COPPS) proposes the establishment of an Exploratory Center of Excellence (COE) in the area of Cancer Research, Training and Community Service (CRTCS). African-Americans experience the highest mortality rates associated with most cancer (breast, lung, prostate, etc.) deaths despite decreases in morbidity rates for all other racial and ethnic groups since early 1990. Health disparities are closely related to underlying socioeconomic inequalities and have been linked to racial differences among cancer mortality which presents major challenges across the entire spectrum of cancer prevention, early detection, and access to high quality care for disadvantage and underrepresented groups. The overall goal and objective of the COE CRTCS will consist of researchers focusing on developing innovative cancer research (breast and lung) abnormalities utilizing an interdisciplinary and synergistic approach toward addressing some of the most significant health consequences in minority and socioeconomic disadvantaged populations. This will address novel and innovative approaches to treating and preventing breast and lung cancer. The administrative; biomedical and behavioral research; research training/educational and community engagement/outreach cores will enable the COE CRTCS to accomplish the proposed initiatives. The specific aims of the COE CRTCS are to: 1) Develop detailed innovative research plans that will address specific cancer (breast and lung) health issues that disproportionately impact African-American; 2) Develop a research team conducting cancer research; 3) Train minority PhD graduate students in health disparities research affecting disadvantage and minority populations; 4) Increase the number of minority scientists engaged in biomedical and behavioral research; 5) Establish and enhance community outreach and information dissemination activities that will increase prevention efforts and foster early detection towards reducing breast cancer in African-American women (Leon and Gadsden County, Florida); 6) Establish and expand partnerships with community engagement/outreach organizations toward addressing and conducting minority health and other health disparities issues; and 7) Position FAMU to become more competitive in securing mainstream funding in biomedical and behavioral research support and addressing minority health disparities. The support of this application will promote minority health and aid i the elimination of health disparities as it relates to breast (among African-American females) and lung cancer (among minorities).

描述（由申请人提供）：佛罗里达A&M大学（FAMU）药学和药物科学学院（COPPS）提议在癌症研究，培训和社区服务（CRTCS）领域建立一个卓越的探索中心（COE）。非洲裔美国人经历了与大多数癌症（乳腺癌、肺癌、前列腺癌等）相关的最高死亡率。自1990年初以来，尽管所有其他种族和族裔群体的发病率有所下降，但死亡率仍在下降。健康差距与潜在的社会经济不平等密切相关，并与癌症死亡率的种族差异有关，这在癌症预防、早期发现以及弱势群体和代表性不足群体获得高质量护理的整个范围内提出了重大挑战。COE CRTCS的总体目标和目的将由研究人员组成，他们专注于开发创新的癌症研究（乳腺和肺）异常，利用跨学科和协同方法解决少数民族和社会经济弱势群体中一些最重要的健康后果。这将涉及治疗和预防乳腺癌和肺癌的新颖和创新方法。行政;生物医学和行为研究;研究培训/教育和社区参与/外展核心将使COE CRTCS能够完成拟议的举措。COE CRTCS的具体目标是：1）制定针对特定癌症的详细创新研究计划（乳腺和肺）健康问题，不成比例地影响非洲裔美国人; 2）发展一个研究小组进行癌症研究; 3）培训少数民族博士研究生在健康差距研究影响弱势和少数民族人口; 4）增加从事生物医学和行为研究的少数民族科学家的数量; 5）建立和加强社区外联和信息传播活动，以加强预防工作，促进早期发现，减少非洲裔美国妇女的乳腺癌（莱昂和加兹登县，佛罗里达）; 6）建立和扩大与社区参与/外展组织的伙伴关系，以解决和进行少数民族健康和其他健康差距问题;和7）定位FAMU成为更有竞争力的主流资金在生物医学和行为研究支持和解决少数民族健康差距。对这一应用程序的支持将促进少数民族的健康，并有助于消除与乳腺癌（非洲裔美国妇女）和肺癌（少数民族）有关的健康差距。
