DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The Center to Advance Cognitive Health and Healthcare in Older Latinos is a new Resource Center for Minority Aging Research at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis RCMAR). The UC Davis RCMAR addresses an important public health problem (cognitive health and impairment) in a demographically significant and historically under-served population (Latinos) that suffers from compelling evidence of disparities. The UC Davis RCMAR represents collaboration between the UC Davis School of Medicine and Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing. The Center's mission is to reduce disparities related to cognitive health and healthcare in Latinos through a well-integrated, interdisciplinary, and inter-professional mentoring program that will diversity the research workforce. In addition, through the creation of a network of community agencies, healthcare leaders and regional academic institution, the Center will advance cognitive health and healthcare for Latinos in California's Central Valley who suffer dramatic health disparities. The Center's four Cores (Administrative, Investigator Development, Community Liaison, and Analysis) will work in an integrated and cohesive fashion to accomplish our aims. The overall specific aims of the application are to 1) enhance the capacity, size, and diversity of the research workforce and promote careers in minority aging research by strategic outreach, sustained mentoring, and pilot grants to RCMAR Scholars, 2) increase knowledge in cognitive health and impairment for older Latinos through interdisciplinary research and training in measurement, mechanisms, and interventions, 3) advance the science of recruitment and retention of older Latinos related to cognitive health and related healthcare services, and 4) improve health and reduce disparities for Latinos in California's central valley through community engagement, community-oriented research, and dissemination to older Latinos and their families and providers serving Latino communities. The proposed RCMAR will benefit from significant resources at UC Davis, including an NIH-funded Clinical Translational Science Center and Alzheimer's Disease Center.

描述（由申请人提供）中心，以促进认知健康和医疗保健在老年人是一个新的资源中心，少数民族老龄化研究在加州大学戴维斯分校（加州大学戴维斯分校RCMAR）。加州大学戴维斯分校RCMAR解决了一个重要的公共卫生问题（认知健康和障碍）在人口统计学上显著和历史上服务不足的人口（拉丁美洲人），遭受令人信服的证据的差异。加州大学戴维斯分校RCMAR代表了加州大学戴维斯分校医学院和贝蒂艾琳摩尔护理学院之间的合作。该中心的使命是减少相关的认知健康和医疗保健在拉丁美洲人通过一个良好的整合，跨学科和跨专业的指导计划，将多样化的研究队伍的差距。此外，通过建立社区机构、医疗保健领导者和区域学术机构网络，该中心将促进加州中央谷拉丁美洲人的认知健康和医疗保健，他们的健康状况存在巨大差异。该中心的四个核心（行政，研究者发展，社区联络和分析）将以综合和有凝聚力的方式工作，以实现我们的目标。该应用程序的总体具体目标是：1）提高研究人员的能力，规模和多样性，并通过战略推广，持续指导和对RCMAR学者的试点赠款促进少数民族老龄化研究的职业生涯，2）通过跨学科研究和测量，机制和干预措施的培训，增加老年人认知健康和障碍的知识，3）推进与认知健康和相关医疗保健服务相关的老年拉丁美洲人的招聘和保留科学，以及4）通过社区参与，面向社区的研究，以及向老年拉丁美洲人及其家庭和服务于拉丁美洲社区的提供者传播，改善健康并减少加州中央谷的拉丁美洲人的差异。拟议的RCMAR将受益于加州大学戴维斯分校的重要资源，包括NIH资助的临床转化科学中心和阿尔茨海默病中心。
