PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This proposal describes plans for a Research Coordinating Center (RCC) at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill to support and enhance the work of the Disparities Elimination through Coordinated Interventions to Prevent and Control Heart and Lung Disease Risk (DECIPHeR) Network. The RCC will coordinate research activities and collaborations among Implementation Research Centers to maximize the synergistic effect of multiple investigators working on different projects, all designed to improve the implementation of evidence-based interventions. As the RCC, our aims are to: 1. Provide organization and management 2. Supply cross-study research coordination and support data analysis 3. Facilitate research skills development and capacity building 4. Promote dissemination and initiate partnerships The UNC team has an exceptionally strong record of successful coordination of multi-center studies that includes building collaborations between investigators, planning and facilitation of meetings and training workshops, construction of cross-study resources of original data and the design and analysis of multi-level studies. The team has deep experience and a long history of publications in population-level cardiovascular research with an emphasis on ethnic disparities. The group has strong expertise in community-level behavior change, prevention research and implementation science; as well as both quantitative and qualitative data analysis. We are eager to support the work of the T4 Implementation Research Centers in the conduct of outstanding research that will reduce or eliminate cardiovascular and/or pulmonary health disparities.
