密歇根阿尔茨海默病相关因素研究中心的行政核心(AC) (MCCFAD)将促进该中心的两个长期目标：1)促进阿尔茨海默病和 与痴呆症(ADRD)相关的社会和行为科学研究 代表不足的社区和2)使致力于ADRD的研究队伍多样化。我们建议 关注在密歇根州有独特历史的三个少数民族和服务不足的群体：非裔美国人，阿拉伯人 美国人和拉美人。ADRD的研究和与阿拉伯裔美国人和拉美裔美国人的社区关系将 是在这个项目中专门开发的；而多亏了我们的UM同事，我们将利用 MCUAAAR和MADCC为非洲开发的已经开发的研究和基于社区的关系 美国人。 协调委员会将通过有效的互动确保所有MCCFAD活动的整合和协调， 通信和信息流。此外，它还将利用密歇根大学的现有资源 为协作指导和研究提供独特的联系。中心的基础是飞行员 AD-RCMAR科学家的项目。因此，咨询委员会将对征集工作提供监督和支持 和遴选试点项目，以资助和招募科学家，以获得中心的试点补助金和 暑期数据沉浸计划。AD-RCMAR侧重于社会和行为因素，即背景因素 这影响了不同群体对ADRD的体验。在这些方面进行高质量的研究 地区研究应包括社区居民参与研究的方方面面。结合 社区联络和招募中心将帮助建立和维持社区 以尽可能在文化上最敏感和最适当的方式建立伙伴关系。最后，审计委员会将确保 组织和财政的完整性、计划的有效性以及遵守所有相关的规则、法规、 和道德原则。我们将最大限度地利用技术来实现分段的结构 责任和强有力的监督，包括来自内部和外部咨询委员会以及 社区咨询委员会。 总而言之，AC将监督、管理、指导和支持所有其他MCCFAD核心，以确保其丰富 开展和提高ADRD背景因素研究的质量，增加ADRD的多样性 劳动力。

The Administrative Core (AC) of the Michigan Center for Contextual Factors in Alzheimer's Disease (MCCFAD) will promote the two long-term goals of the Center: 1) to advance Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) relevant social and behavioral science research in underserved and underrepresented communities and 2) to diversify the research workforce dedicated to ADRD. We propose to focus on three minority and underserved groups with unique histories in Michigan: African Americans, Arab Americans and Latinos. ADRD research and community based relations with Arab Americans and Latinos will be developed specifically within this project; whereas, thanks to our UM colleagues, we will capitalize on the already developed research and community based relations developed by MCUAAAR and MADCC for African Americans. The AC will ensure integration and coordination of all MCCFAD activities through effective interactions, communication, and information flow. Further, it will leverage existing resources at the University of Michigan to enable unique linkages for collaborative mentoring and research. Fundamental to the Center are the pilot projects of the AD-RCMAR Scientists. Therefore, the AC will provide oversight and support for the solicitation and selection of pilot projects for funding and for the recruitment of scientists for the Center's Pilot Grant and Summer Data Immersion programs. This AD-RCMAR focuses on social and behavioral, i.e. contextual, factors that influence the experience of ADRD among different groups. To conduct high quality research in these areas research should include community resident participants in all aspects of the research. In conjunction with the Community Liaison and Recruitment Core the AC will help to build and sustain community partnerships in the most culturally sensitive and appropriate manner possible. And finally, the AC will ensure organizational and fiscal integrity, program effectiveness, and compliance with all relevant rules, regulations, and ethical principles. We will maximize the use of technology to implement a structure of segmented responsibility and strong oversight that includes counsel from Internal and External Advisory Boards as well as Community Advisory Boards. In sum, the AC will oversee, manage, direct and support all other MCCFAD Cores to assure that it enriches the conduct and quality of research on contextual factors in ADRD and increases the diversity of the ADRD workforce.
