项目摘要

Project Summary The long term objective of the Texas Minority Health, Education, Research and Outreach (Texas MiHERO) is to expand the capacity of University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC) to enhance research and research training in minority health and health disparities by increasing the number of under-represented students in health disparity research, providing interdisciplinary research and leadership training to junior faculty, and increasing the number of health professional faculty involved in health disparity research. Given the substantial need for physicians, physician scientists, and other health professionals to care for vulnerable populations, and the critical need to study diseases and conditions that disproportionately affect these groups, more efforts are needed to increase the participation of individuals from diverse backgrounds in conducting research on minority health and health disparities, and encouraging them to consider careers in research and related fields. The Texas Center for Health Disparities (TCHD), a NIMHD-Specialized Center of Excellence developed the MiHERO program, through the NIMHD S21 mechanism, to increase health disparity research capacity by increasing the size of the PhD workforce in health disparities, train junior faculty in interdisciplinary research leadership, and provide opportunities for senior investigators to develop research focus in minority health and health disparities. Four priority activities will be conducted under the MiHERO program: • Priority Activity 1: Support an Interdisciplinary Research Leadership (IRL) Program for junior faculty in Minority Health and Health Disparities • Priority Activity 2: Recruit/Retain diverse faculty through a Health Education, Awareness and Research in Disparities Scholarship (HEARD Scholars) program in Minority Health and Health Disparities. • Priority Activity 3: Increase the diversity of the biomedical, behavioral and clinical research workforce by recruiting a new cohort of PhD students from minority and underrepresented groups each year who focus on health disparities. • Priority Activity 4: Develop a mechanism for minority health and health disparity researchers to engage community members in their research. Using the endowment funds secured through this mechanism of funding, we will ensure robust training opportunities are provided that encourage participants of the proposed program to seek careers in research and related field that address the issue of health disparities. The impact of the endowment income will be sustainable programs in Minority Health and Health Disparities, including health disparity curricula for PhD students, a junior faculty development program that can be expanded to faculty from other institutions, and a cadre of health disparity researchers who have active research projects in the area of Minority Health and Health Disparities.

项目摘要德克萨斯州少数民族健康，教育，研究和推广（德克萨斯州MiHERO）的长期目标是扩大北德克萨斯大学健康科学中心（UNTHSC）的能力，以加强研究和通过增加代表人数不足的少数群体的人数，学生在健康差距研究，提供跨学科的研究和领导培训，以初级教师，增加参与健康差距研究的卫生专业人员的数量。鉴于医生，医生科学家和其他卫生专业人员的大量需求，以照顾弱势群体，人口，迫切需要研究对这些群体造成不成比例影响的疾病和病症，需要做出更多努力，增加来自不同背景的个人参与，研究少数群体的健康和健康差距，并鼓励他们考虑从事研究工作，相关领域德克萨斯州健康差异中心（TCHD），NIMHD专业卓越中心通过NIMHD S21机制开发MiHERO计划，以增加健康差异研究通过增加健康差距的博士生劳动力规模的能力，培养跨学科的初级教师研究领导，并为高级研究人员提供机会，以发展少数民族的研究重点，健康和健康差距。MiHERO计划将开展四项优先活动： ·优先活动1：支持跨学科研究领导（IRL）初级教师计划，少数民族健康和健康差异 ·优先活动2：通过健康教育，意识和研究招聘/保留多样化的教师在差异奖学金（HEARD学者）计划在少数民族健康和健康差异。优先活动3：通过以下方式增加生物医学、行为学和临床研究工作人员的多样性：每年从少数民族和代表性不足的群体中招募一批新的博士生，健康差距。优先活动4：建立一个机制，让少数群体健康和健康差距研究人员参与社区成员在他们的研究。我们将利用通过这一供资机制获得的捐赠资金，提供机会，鼓励拟议计划的参与者寻求研究和职业生涯，这是解决健康差距问题的相关领域。养老金收入的影响将是可持续的少数族裔健康和健康差距项目，包括博士生、大三学生的健康差距课程教师发展计划，可以扩大到教师从其他机构，和干部的健康在少数民族健康和健康差异领域有积极研究项目的差异研究人员。
