1/2 Cancer Research and Education to Advance HealTh Equity (CREATE) Partnership

项目总结/摘要-总体 癌症研究和教育促进健康公平（CREATE）伙伴关系的总体目标 进一步提高SDSU的癌症研究能力，扩大SDSU和UCSD的重点， 癌症健康差异研究。双向社区参与也是一个主要特征， 集成在CREATE Partnership的每个组织组件中，是SDSU的优势 在过去的30年里建立起来的。其他目标包括开发癌症研究机会， 本科生、研究生和医学生的途径，以及早期研究者（ESI）， 这将导致未来的劳动力更加多样化，并反映集水区的人口。到 为了实现这些总体目标，提出了以下具体目标：1）招募和支持各种环境服务机构 他们选择了一个有意的职业目标，成为独立的，以癌症为重点的研究人员， （行政核心和公平的转型发展[人才]共享资源）; 2） 开展与确定的癌症优先事项相一致的流域相关研究和试点研究项目 为该地区服务不足的社区（研究和研究试点项目和规划， 评估核心）; 3）扩大和实施癌症，癌症差异和社区参与的研究 教育，重点是在整个SDSU和UCSD本科，研究生代表不足的学生 项目和医学生（研究教育核心）;以及4）将社区参与纳入所有 创建伙伴关系活动（外联核心）。为了实现这些目标，创建伙伴关系要求 初步支持两个全面的研究项目和一个试点研究项目，旨在提供深入了解 癌症健康差异背后的机制（或行为）。这三个项目将由 SDSU和UCSD共同领导;项目2由两名代表性不足的研究人员共同领导。的研究项目 将与研究教育核心相结合，提供扩展的癌症研究经验， 癌症的差异，以及社区参与的研究，以代表性不足的本科生，研究生， 医学院的学生人才共享资源将促进伙伴关系ESI的职业发展。的 外展核心将发展新的和加强现有的社区-学术伙伴关系，以促进癌症 研究、教育和有针对性的外联工作，重点是传播和实施 以证据为基础的干预措施，可以减少癌症负担。该伙伴关系得到了以下方面的显著支持： 强有力的机构承诺，由调查人员组成的行政核心， 领导和组织能力，以及由外部指导的强大的规划和评估核心 项目指导委员会、内部咨询委员会和社区咨询委员会。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT – OVERALL The Cancer Research and Education to Advance HealTh Equity (CREATE) Partnership’s overarching goals are to further increase SDSU’s cancer research capacities and expand SDSU’s and UCSD’s emphasis on cancer health disparities research. Bi-directional community engagement is also a principal feature that is integrated across every organizational component in the CREATE Partnership and is a strength that SDSU has built over the last 30 years. Additional goals include developing cancer research opportunities and pathways for undergraduate, graduate, and medical students, as well as early-stage investigators (ESIs), which will lead to a future workforce that is more diverse and reflective of the catchment-area population. To meet these overarching goals, the following Specific Aims are proposed: 1) Recruit and support diverse ESIs who have chosen an intentional career goal to become independent, cancer-focused researchers (Administrative Core and Transforming fAcuLty dEvelopmeNT for Equity [TALENT] Shared Resource); 2) Conduct catchment-area relevant research and pilot research projects aligned with identified cancer priorities for the underserved communities in the region (Research and Research Pilot Projects and Planning and Evaluation Core); 3) Expand and implement cancer, cancer disparities, and community-engaged research education with a focus on under-represented students across SDSU and UCSD undergraduate, graduate programs, and medical students (Research Education Core); and 4) Integrate community engagement into all CREATE Partnership activities (Outreach Core). To achieve these aims, the CREATE Partnership requests the initial support for two Full Research Projects and one Pilot Research Project designed to provide insight into the mechanisms (or behaviors) underlying cancer health disparities. All three projects will be jointly led by SDSU and UCSD Co-Leads; Project 2 is co-led by two under-represented researchers. The Research Projects will be integrated with the Research Education Core, providing expanded research experiences in cancer, cancer disparities, and community-engaged research to under-represented undergraduate, graduate, and medical students. A TALENT Shared Resource will foster the career development of Partnership ESIs. The Outreach Core will develop new and strengthen existing community-academic partnerships to foster cancer research, education, and tailored outreach efforts with a focus on the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based interventions that can reduce the cancer burden. The Partnership is notably bolstered by strong institutional commitment, an Administrative Core composed of investigators with demonstrated leadership and organizational capabilities, and a strong Planning and Evaluation Core guided by an external Program Steering Committee, an Internal Advisory Board, and a Community Advisory Board.
