PROJECT SUMMARY: PLANNING UNIT With the long-term goal of establishing a Caribbean Regional Center for Research Excellence (CRCRE), our plan is to first develop a Center for Research Excellence (CRE) in Jamaica, ultimately to be rolled out to the rest of the Caribbean. The Center will facilitate robust collaborative research between Caribbean countries as well as international partners. The Aims of the Planning Unit are: Aim 1. Perform a needs assessment including researchers, laboratory personnel and the community; and use the results to plan for a high-quality research program that focuses on multidisciplinary NCD research priorities (in collaboration with the coordinating unit). Aim 2. Establish sustainable regional research enhancement activities for scientists and public health professionals based in Jamaica, to enable them to address heath issues related to NCDs (focused on cancer and cardiometabolic diseases) and conduct a pilot study in this area.. Aim 3. Enhance existing facilities and services to promote regional linkages for robust research, educational and community outreach efforts between Jamaica, the Caribbean region and other international partners. We will achieve this in three phases, the first two during the planning award period. (1) In Phase 1, we will conduct a scientific retreat in Jamaica to introduce the CRCRE plan and initiate a research/laboratory needs assessment to identify priorities, gaps in training and resources for research conduct. This will include researchers, laboratory personnel and the community, in collaboration with the coordinating unit. Results will be used to plan a high quality research program focusing on multidisciplinary research priorities (prostate cancer, CVD and diabetes). (2) Phase 2 includes research enhancement activities for the Jamaica CRE guided by the needs assessments; and planning for the research program and Shared Core Facilities. Although research enhancement activities will be focused in Jamaica, in preparation for the CRCRE (post-award), these activities will be made accessible to the wider Caribbean through web-based communication methods. Research enhancement activities will also be augmented by lab-based training and a mentor-mentee matching program, which will help to strengthen research project concepts and promote development of future pilot research. (3) Planning for Phase 3 (post-award phase) includes development of a research program strategy for sustainability as well as inclusion of additional partners with a U54 application for funding of the Center. Throughout Phases 1 and 2, the aim is to enhance existing facilities and services to promote regional linkages for robust research, educational and community outreach efforts between Jamaica and the Caribbean region, so that by the end of the planning award period and start of Phase 3, preparation for the transition to the CRCRE is complete.

项目概要：规划单位 我们的长期目标是建立加勒比地区卓越研究中心 (CRCRE)，我们的计划是 首先在牙买加建立卓越研究中心（CRE），最终推广到加勒比海其他地区。 该中心将促进加勒比国家以及国际合作伙伴之间强有力的合作研究。 这 规划部门的目标是： 目标 1. 进行需求评估，包括研究人员、实验室人员和 社区;并利用研究结果规划专注于多学科非传染性疾病的高质量研究计划 研究重点（与协调单位合作）。目标 2. 建立可持续的区域研究 为牙买加的科学家和公共卫生专业人员开展增强活动，使他们能够解决健康问题 与非传染性疾病相关的问题（重点是癌症和心脏代谢疾病）并在该领域进行试点研究。 目标3。 加强现有设施和服务，促进区域联系，促进强有力的研究、教育和社区 牙买加、加勒比地区和其他国际伙伴之间的外展努力。我们将在三年内实现这一目标 阶段，前两个阶段在规划奖励期间。 (1) 第一阶段，我们将在牙买加举办科学务虚会 介绍 CRCRE 计划并启动研究/实验室需求评估 确定培训的优先事项、差距 研究行为的资源。这将 包括 研究人员、实验室人员和社区合作 与协调单位。结果将用于规划专注于多学科的高质量研究计划 研究重点（前列腺癌、CVD 和糖尿病）。 (2) 第二阶段包括加强研究活动 牙买加 CRE 以需求评估为指导；研究计划和共享核心设施的规划。 尽管研究加强活动将集中在牙买加，但为 CRCRE（获奖后）做准备，这些 活动将通过基于网络的通信方法向更广泛的加勒比地区开放。研究 强化活动还将通过基于实验室的培训和导师与受训者匹配计划得到加强，这将 有助于强化研究项目理念，推动未来试点研究的发展。 （三）三期规划 （授予后阶段）包括制定可持续发展研究计划战略以及纳入 其他合作伙伴通过 U54 申请该中心的资金。在第一阶段和第二阶段，目标是增强 现有设施和服务，以促进区域联系，以促进强有力的研究、教育和社区外展 牙买加和加勒比地区之间的努力，以便在规划授予期结束和第三阶段开始时， 向 CRCRE 过渡的准备工作已完成。
