This renewal application for the Center for American Indian and Alaska Native Health Disparities (CAIANHD; P60 MD000507) is organized in terms of 4 Cores: an Administrative Core, a Research Core, a Research Training and Education (RT/E) Core, and a Community Engagement and Outreach (CE/O) Core. Spero M. Manson, Ph.D. (Pembina Chippewa), Distinguished Professor of Public Health and Psychiatry, leads the RT/E Core. Dr. Manson co-directs the Native Investigator Development Program (NIDP), and brings a wealth of experience to bear on this particular core. Indeed, he twice received the Gerontological Society of America's Distinguished Mentor Award (2006; 2007) and the Herbert W. Nickens Award from the Association of American Medical Colleges (2006) for his, training of American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) investigators. Nancy Whitesell, Ph.D., Associate Professor, a developmental psychologist and statistician with extensive field experience in Native communities, also is a member of the RT/E Core. Dr. Whitesell codirects with Dr. Beals the Building Research Infrastructure for Dissemination, Goals, and Education (BRIDGE) Project, a unique, NIH-funded partnership between CAIANH and the Oglala Lakota Nation Health Administration (OSTHA) to create more effective mechanisms for research training and dissemination within the tribe. The RT/E Core houses 2 interrelated efforts that focus on promoting health disparities research capabilities among AI/AN undergraduate students at tribal colleges and universities (TC/Us) and on increasing the capacity of AI/AN MD/Ph.D.s to conduct high-quality, NIH-supported health disparities research. Few studies of the health of AI/AN people in the U.S. have been conducted by AI/AN researchers.[1] In our ongoing effort to redress this imbalance, the overarching purpose of the RT/E Core is as follows: a) increase the number of AI/AN researchers engaged in high-quality health disparities research in this special population, and b) enhance the ability of AI/AN scientists to compete successfully for externally sponsored health disparities research. We will accomplish this by capitalizing on our prior work over the last 5 years through the CAIANHD in 2 ways. First, we propose to expand our support of and involvement in the Dine College Summer Research Enhancement Program (SREP), a 10-week summer enrichment training program in public health research methods for AI/AN undergraduate students. This program, offered in collaboration with the country's oldest and largest TC/U and housed on the Navajo Nation, introduces AI/AN students to the research process and to health professions, providing them a foundation for basic public health research and evaluation. The SREP integrates concepts of holism, balance/harmony, kinship, and relatedness�values shared by AI/AN people generally and these students in particular�with state-of-the-art scientific methods. As we shall show, this initiative has been remarkably successful: It has attracted 48 AI/AN undergraduate students to health disparities research and led many of them to pursue advanced studies in related areas at other institutions across the country. During the proposed period of renewal, we will expand the program's research foci and replicate it at Oglala Lakota College, another TC/U located on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Second, we intend to renew the Health Disparities Research Scholar effort, which trains and mentors promising new AI/AN scientists. This objective will be accomplished by continuing to augment our unique Native Investigator Development Program (NIDP) to enable it to address a broader array of research areas than permitted by its primary sponsor, the National Institute on Aging (NIA). This 2-year, collaborative, multidisciplinary program identifies potential AI/AN investigators and facilitates their comprehensive, systematic preparation for research careers. As a collaboration between UCD and the University of Washington (UW), the NIDP has been continuously funded since 1998 by NIA, as well as by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the National Human Genome Research Institute, the National Cancer Institute, and NIMHD. It, too, has been highly successful, having trained 42 AI/AN social, behavioral, and health scientists known as Native Investigators (NIs),[2*a] who have acquired more than $90 million in NIH research funding and published almost 300 peer-reviewed journal articles.

美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民健康差异中心（CAIANHD; P60 MD 000507）的更新申请分为4个核心：行政核心，研究核心，研究培训和教育（RT/E）核心以及社区参与和推广（CE/O）核心。斯佩罗湾曼森博士（Pembina Chippewa），公共卫生和精神病学杰出教授，领导RT/E核心。曼森博士共同指导本土研究者发展计划（NIDP），并带来了丰富的经验，承担这一特定的核心。事实上，他两次获得美国老年学会杰出导师奖（2006年; 2007年）和赫伯特W。美国医学院协会（2006年）颁发的Nickens奖，以表彰他对美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民（AI/AN）调查人员的培训。南希·怀特塞尔博士，副教授，发展心理学家和统计学家，在土著社区有着丰富的实地经验，也是RT/E核心的成员。Whitesell博士与Beals博士共同指导了传播，目标和教育（BRIDGE）项目的建设研究基础设施，这是CAIANH和Oglala Lakota国家卫生管理局（OSTHA）之间独特的NIH资助的合作伙伴关系，旨在为部落内的研究培训和传播创造更有效的机制。RT/E核心包含2个相互关联的努力，重点是促进部落学院和大学（TC/Us）AI/AN本科生的健康差异研究能力，并提高AI/AN MD/Ph.D的能力，以进行高质量的NIH支持的健康差异研究。 在美国，AI/AN研究人员很少对AI/AN人群的健康进行研究。[1]在我们持续努力纠正这种不平衡的过程中，RT/E核心的首要目的如下：a）增加在这一特殊人群中从事高质量健康差异研究的AI/AN研究人员的数量，以及B）提高AI/AN科学家成功竞争外部赞助的健康差异研究的能力。我们将以两种方式通过CAIANHD利用我们过去5年的工作来实现这一目标。首先，我们建议扩大我们对Dine College Summer Research Enhancement Program（SREP）的支持和参与，这是一个为期10周的AI/AN本科生公共卫生研究方法夏季强化培训计划。该计划与该国最古老，最大的TC/U合作提供，并在纳瓦霍民族居住，向AI/AN学生介绍研究过程和卫生专业，为他们提供基本公共卫生研究和评估的基础。SREP整合了整体主义，平衡/和谐，亲属关系和相关性的概念-AI/AN人普遍共享的价值观，特别是这些学生-与最先进的科学方法。正如我们将展示的那样，这一举措取得了显著的成功：它吸引了48名AI/AN本科生进行健康差异研究，并导致他们中的许多人在全国其他机构的相关领域进行深造。在拟议的更新期间，我们将扩大该计划的研究重点，并复制它在奥格拉拉拉科塔学院，另一个TC/U位于松树岭印第安人保留地在南达科他州。其次，我们打算更新健康差异研究学者的工作，该工作培训和指导有前途的新AI/AN科学家。这一目标将通过继续扩大我们独特的本土研究者发展计划（NIDP）来实现，使其能够解决比其主要赞助商国家老龄化研究所（NIA）所允许的更广泛的研究领域。这个为期2年的多学科合作计划确定了潜在的AI/AN研究人员，并促进他们为研究职业做全面，系统的准备。作为UCD和华盛顿大学（UW）之间的合作，NIDP自1998年以来一直由NIA以及医疗保健研究和质量机构，国家人类基因组研究所，国家癌症研究所和NIMHD提供资金。它也非常成功，已经培训了42名AI/AN社会，行为和健康科学家，被称为Native Investigators（NI），他们已经获得了超过9000万美元的NIH研究资金，并发表了近300篇同行评议的期刊文章。
