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）：该提案名为芝加哥南区癌症差异倡议（CSCDI），旨在寻求支持，在芝加哥大学综合癌症中心（UCCCC） （nci指定的综合癌症中心）和芝加哥州立大学（CSU）（少数族裔服务机构）之间建立伙伴关系，以开发癌症教育，培训和推广的基础设施。呼吁采取行动，增加保健工作人员中代表性不足的少数群体，以此作为减少差距和推进与社区有关的研究的一种机制，我们必须发展教育和学术途径，以增加本科和研究生水平的知识转移。为此，CSCDI的目标是：1)创建一个跨大学合作，开发、实施和评估癌症差异课程，并将其整合到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)通过合作发展和加强现有的服务学习网站(例如：社区组织)；3)培训MPH队列参与服务学习网站(例如：社区组织)预防癌症、促进健康和传播癌症研究；4)通过利用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年拨款期之后扩大教育和培训。芝加哥迫切需要改善癌症治疗结果。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，研究在社区的传播一直很弱。科罗拉多州立大学是一所城市公立大学，在教育、领导和对芝加哥南部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，重点关注少数民族的健康和健康公平，为我们的合作提供了一个令人兴奋的机会。然而，尽管科罗拉多州立大学拥有强大的实力和影响力，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却在上升。因此，CSCDI是一种创新和及时的伙伴关系，它将把优秀的少数民族学生和教师与全国公认的癌症领域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民族公共卫生专业人员的数量。
