SUMMARY The University of Hawai`i Cancer Center (UHCC) SPORE Career Enhancement Program (CEP) will identify and mentor investigators who show promise for independent research careers in translational research in minority health and correcting ethnic/racial disparities in cancer. We understand that creating a sustained, high-impact minority health program is dependent upon attracting the most promising investigators from a diverse talented pool inclusive of underrepresented groups including racial/ethnic and sexual/gender minorities, women, veterans, and individuals with disabilities, to help these faculty members excel through quality mentorship and research support. UH Cancer Center members have access to unique opportunities in Hawai`i and the Pacific to do innovative research in minority health and disparities research in cancer due to the multiple racial and ethnic populations living here and their varying cancer incidence and outcomes. Further, Hawai`i's high-quality health care and cancer registration systems offers access to needed resources for these studies. UHCC has an extensive record of successfully working with Hawaii's multiethnic population around minority health issues and to identify and understand disparities in various cancers. We also have a long track record of mentoring our promising junior faculty to independent research careers with particular success among researchers from AANHPI background. The UHCC has also been successful engaging established researchers in developing new projects in minority health and disparities research by providing forums to disseminate and discuss ideas that are important to cancer prevention and treatment in our catchment. The goal of the CEP is to provide funding and mentoring to junior faculty to develop independent research programs and to provide support to established investigators to greatly enhance or refocus their careers on minority health research. In service of this goal, we propose the following Specific Aims: 1) Coordinate identification of promising new research in disparities research from junior faculty and established investigators looking to refocus their research in this area; 2) Provide training, career development and mentoring to awardees in minority health research; 3) Monitor the progress of CEP awardees as they develop independent careers and/or new research programs in minority health, and assess effectiveness of the CEP approach. Through these activities, we will foster development of new diverse faculty who conducts highly collaborative translational research in minority health focusing on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders aimed at understanding differences in cancer risk and outcomes and correcting ethnic/racial disparities in Hawai`i, the Pacific Islands, and more broadly on the US and global stages.

总结 夏威夷大学癌症中心（UHCC）SPORE职业提升计划（CEP）将确定并 指导研究人员谁显示出在少数民族的翻译研究的独立研究生涯的承诺 健康和纠正癌症中的族裔/种族差异。我们明白，创造一个持续的，高影响力的 少数民族健康计划依赖于吸引来自不同人才的最有前途的调查人员。 人才库包括代表性不足的群体，包括种族/族裔和性/性别少数群体、妇女、退伍军人、 和残疾人，以帮助这些教师通过高质量的指导和研究脱颖而出 支持. UH癌症中心的成员有机会在夏威夷和太平洋的独特机会，做 少数民族健康的创新研究和癌症研究的差异，由于多种族和民族 生活在这里的人口及其不同的癌症发病率和结果。此外，夏威夷的高质量健康 护理和癌症登记系统为这些研究提供了所需的资源。UHCC有一个 在少数民族健康问题上与夏威夷多民族人口成功合作的广泛记录， 来识别和理解各种癌症的差异。我们也有一个长期的跟踪记录指导我们的 有前途的初级教师独立的研究事业与研究人员之间的特别成功， AANHPI背景。UHCC还成功地吸引了已有的研究人员开发新的 通过提供论坛，传播和讨论 对我们流域的癌症预防和治疗非常重要。CEP的目标是提供资金， 指导初级教师开发独立研究项目并为现有项目提供支持 研究人员大大提高或重新集中在少数民族健康研究的职业生涯。为了实现这一目标，我们 我提出以下具体目标：1）协调确定有前途的新研究的差距 来自初级教师和既定研究人员的研究，希望重新关注他们在这一领域的研究; 2）提供 为少数民族健康研究获奖者提供培训、职业发展和指导; 3）监测进展情况 CEP获奖者，因为他们在少数民族健康方面发展独立的职业和/或新的研究项目，以及 评估CEP方法的有效性。通过这些活动，我们将促进发展新的多样化 教师谁进行高度合作的翻译研究，在少数民族健康的重点是亚裔美国人， 夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民旨在了解癌症风险和结果的差异， 在夏威夷、太平洋岛屿以及更广泛的美国和全球舞台上纠正种族/种族差异。
