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.

摘要 夏威夷大学癌症中心(UHCC)孢子职业增强计划(CEP)将确定和 在少数民族翻译研究中显示出独立研究职业前景的导师调查人员 健康和纠正癌症方面的民族/种族差异。我们理解，创造一个持续的、高影响的 少数群体健康计划取决于从不同的人才中吸引最有前途的研究人员 包括代表人数不足的群体，包括种族/族裔和性/性别少数群体、妇女、退伍军人、 和残疾人士，通过高质量的指导和研究帮助这些教职员工出类拔萃 支持。呃，癌症中心的成员可以在夏威夷和太平洋获得独特的机会 少数民族健康方面的创新研究和因多种族和民族而导致的癌症差异研究 居住在这里的人口以及他们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必要的资源。UCC有一家 在少数族裔健康问题上与夏威夷多族裔人口成功合作的广泛记录 识别和了解不同癌症之间的差异。我们也有长期的记录指导我们的 有希望的初级教员从事独立的研究事业，尤其是来自 AANHPI背景。UCC还成功地聘请了知名研究人员开发新的 少数群体健康和差异研究项目，通过提供论坛来传播和讨论 对我们流域的癌症预防和治疗很重要。CEP的目标是提供资金和 指导初级教员制定独立研究计划，并为已建立的 研究人员将极大地加强或重新将他们的职业生涯集中在少数群体健康研究上。为了实现这一目标，我们 提出以下具体目标：1)协调确定有前途的差异新研究 来自初级教员和资深研究人员的研究，希望重新将他们的研究重点放在这一领域；2)提供 对少数群体健康研究获奖者的培训、职业发展和指导；3)监测 CEP获奖者在少数群体健康方面发展独立的职业和/或新的研究计划，以及 评估CEP方法的有效性。通过这些活动，我们将促进新的多样化的发展 在少数族裔健康领域进行高度合作的翻译研究的教师，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 纠正夏威夷、太平洋群岛以及更广泛的美国和全球舞台上的族裔/种族差距。
