ADMINISTRATIVE CORE

不同社区老龄化中心的行政核心将是中心组织核心， 该单位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行政核心的总体目标。 中心：1）维持/扩大CADC的组织结构和专业知识，以继续促进 培养少数民族调查员，他们将根据《公约》对少数民族老年人进行研究。 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、社会、 研究老年人健康的行为和生物医学研究。3)协调方案 与协调中心一起为综合研究结果作出贡献， 方法的发展，以及在促进健康老龄化和疾病方面的全面进展 预防，以减少健康差距。4）通过网络协调CADC核心的活动 研究人员和社区领导人的参与，以促进社区为基础的参与性研究。首先，我们定义 该方案强调健康老龄化和疾病预防，以减少种族之间的健康差距 建议在6-t 0年。然后，我们将目标少数群体定义为CADC的重点， 提出我们对种族认定的看法。CADC的组织结构和领导人员 包括理事会理事会的组成。其他CADC核心研究人员及其工作也 介绍了然后，我们回顾了RCMAR项目行政核心的五个特殊目标 RFA中概述的内容，并定义我们的中心将如何解决这些问题。咨询委员会、 具体的专业知识，每个带来的CADC，他们的作用进行了说明。的机制如何 CADC核心将相互作用，并指定这些相互作用的目标。CADC的互动 研究人员与其他加州大学旧金山分校的研究人员和社区组织，以确保 RCMAR计划的目标进行了讨论。行政核心的监督和作用 选择资助的试点研究，并随后跟踪CADC资助的这些试点研究的调查人员 研究提交独立的职业发展奖或RO1类型的应用程序。最后， 概述了CADC PI和高级研究人员在NIA会议资助的RCMAR网站的参与。

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.
