ADMINISTRATIVE CORE

不同社区老龄中心的行政核心将是中央组织 将协调和支持社区联络、调查员发展和 测量核心。因此，行政核心的具体目标反映了 中心：1)维持/扩大CADC的组织结构和专业知识，以继续促进 发展少数群体调查员，他们将根据 健康老龄化和疾病预防的研究重点。2)制定、实施和测试有效性 在健康促进、流行病-逻辑、社会、 涉及老年人健康的行为和生物医学研究。3)协调计划 重点和成果贡献与协调中心，以综合研究成果， 在促进关注健康老龄化和疾病方面的方法发展和总体进展 预防，以减少健康差距。4)通过网络协调CADC核心的活动 促进以社区为基础的参与性研究。首先，我们定义 以健康老龄化和疾病预防为重点缩小种族健康差距 建议数年6-t 0。然后，我们将目标少数群体确定为CADC的重点，并 提出我们对种族确定的看法。CADC的组织结构和领导人员 包括理事会的组成是详细的。其他CADC核心调查人员和他们的工作也 描述。然后，我们审查了RCMAR项目的行政核心的五个特殊目标 在RFA中概述并定义我们的中心将如何解决这些问题。咨询委员会成员、 文中描述了每一项为CADC带来的具体专门知识及其作用。这些机制是如何 CADC核心将进行交互，并指定这些交互的目标。CADC的相互作用 调查人员与加州大学旧金山分校的其他研究人员和社区组织合作，以确保 讨论了RCMAR计划的目标。行政核心在行政执法中的监督和作用 选定试点研究以供供资，并随后跟踪由信通技术发展中心资助的这些试点项目的调查人员 对提交独立职业发展奖或RO1类型申请的研究进行了描述。最后， 概述了CADC PI和高级调查人员参加由RCMAR资助的NIA会议的情况。

The Administrative Core of the Center for Aging in Diverse Communities will be the central organizational unit that will coordinate and support the work of the Community Liaison, Investigator Development and Measurement Cores. Thus, the Specific Aims of the Administrative Core reflect the overall goals of the Center: 1)To sustain/expand the organizational structure and expertise of the CADC to continue to foster the development of minority investigators who will conduct research with older minority persons based on the research focus of healthy aging and disease prevention. 2)To develop, implement and test the effectiveness of strategies for recruiting retaining minority group members in health promotion, epidemic- logical, social, behavioral and biomedical research dealing with the health of older adults. 3) To coordinate the Program Emphases and Outcomes contribution with the Coordinating Center to synthesize research findings, methodological developments, and overall progress in promoting the focus on healthy aging and disease prevention to reduce health disparities. 4)To coordinate the activities of the CADC cores through a network of investigators and community leaders to promote community-based participatory research. First we define the Program Emphasis of healthy aging and disease prevention to reduce health disparities by ethnicity proposed for years 6-t 0. We then define the target minority populations to be the focus of CADC and present our view of the ascertainment of ethnicity. The CADC organizational structure and leadership staff including Governing Council composition is detailed. Other CADC core investigators and their work are also described. We then review the five special objectives for the Administrative Core of the RCMAR projects outlined in the RFA and define how our Center will address each of these. The Advisory members, the specific expertise that each bring to the CADC, and their role are described. The mechanisms of how the CADC Cores will interact and the objectives of these interactions are specified. The interaction of CADC investigators with other UCSF researchers and the community-based organizations in order to ensure the objectives of the RCMAR program are discussed. The oversight and role of the Administrative Core in the selection of pilot studies for funding and subsequent tracking of the CADC funded investigators of these pilot studies to submit independent career development awards or RO1 type applications is described. Finally, the participation of CADC PI and senior investigators at NIA meetings of funded RCMAR sites is outlined.
