COBRE: UAF: CANHR CULTURAL BEHAVIORAL CORE: OBESITY, DIABETES, CVD

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 文化和行为核心协助设计研究，并为Cobre II和独立调查员应用程序的未来研究确定研究优先事项。今年取得的成绩包括： A.与流行病学和生物信息学核心合作，向参与社区展示初步结果。向部落会议和整个社区作了介绍。介绍小组包括一名PI项目、实地研究协调员、当地村庄协调员和核心的语言专家。莱加斯皮博士在一篇名为《研究成果的传播：阿拉斯加原住民村落与学术界之间的合作》的手稿中描述了创建和传播这些材料的过程。美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民心理健康研究国家中心的《美国印第安人和阿拉斯加精神卫生研究杂志》将在春季或夏季刊上发表这篇文章。 B.我们利用今年的春天开始规划未来五年，帮助所有研究人员思考何时以及如何与尤普伊克社区建立关系。这包括决定如何分配研究项目，以减轻社区负担，同时确保CANHR II调查人员的工作将与我们之前的数据收集以及Boyer博士的R01项目相结合。这将使我们能够开始建立一个关于该地区Yupik健康状况的预期纵向数据库。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The Cultural and Behavioral core assists in the design of studies and elicitation of research priorities for future studies for COBRE II and independent investigator applications. Accomplishments this year include: A. Working with the Epidemiology and Bioinformatics core to present preliminary results to a participating community. The presentations was made to both the Tribal Council and to the community at large. The presentation team included a Project PI, the field research coordinator, the local village coordinator, and the core's linguistic expert. Dr. Legaspi described the process of creating and disseminating these materials in a manuscript, "Dissemination of research findings: collaboration between Alaska Native villages and the academe." The Journal of American Indian and Alaska Mental Health Research of the National Center of American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research will publish it in their spring or summer issue. B. We utilized the spring of this year to begin to plan for the next five years by assisting all researchers in thinking through when and how to establish relationships with Yup'ik communities. This involved deciding how to distribute research projects in order to lessen community burden, yet insuring that the work of CANHR II investigators will be integrated with our previous data collection, as well as with Dr. Boyer's R01 project. This will allow us to begin to build a prospective longitudinal database on Yup'ik health status for the region.
