MSM/WCI Partnership To Investigate Mechanisms of Prostate Cancer: Planning Stage

优先级设定阶段 试点项目#1（Davidson博士和Hsieh博士）已充分构思、规划和配备人员。因此该 该项目将在获得资金后立即实施。试点项目#2将在第一年由一个 确定优先事项的过程如下。 我们选择了一个由6名癌症研究人员组成的内部咨询委员会： 加上每个机构的2名额外成员： Alec J. Davidson博士是解剖学和神经生物学系的助理教授， 神经科学研究所和昼夜节律和睡眠障碍项目的成员。戴维森医生 4年来，他一直在研究生物钟与癌症之间的关系， 目前是NCI R21基金的PI，在大鼠肝细胞癌模型中研究该问题。他是 这份资助申请的男男性接触者领导人 Sandra Harris-Hooker博士是赞助研究的副总裁兼副院长 MSM的管理，以及Morehouse少数民族生物医学研究支持计划的主任 医学院，致力于未来生物医学研究学者的发展计划。与 细胞生物学的专业培训，以及心血管病理学的研究生重点，哈里斯博士- 胡克在血管细胞生物学领域工作了20多年，研究内皮功能障碍 参与动脉粥样硬化的发病机制。虽然她的主要研究领域是血管生物学，但她 还对如何加强基础、临床和人口研究的一体化感兴趣， 以解决健康方面的差距。Harris-Hooker博士自1983年以来一直担任MSM教师。 丹尼尔布卢门塔尔，医学博士，公共卫生硕士，是社区卫生和预防医学系主任 Morehouse医学院预防研究中心（PRC）的首席研究员。的 中华人民共和国的使命是促进非洲裔美国人疾病预防领域的科学知识 在这方面，我们将继续努力，以加强对少数民族和其他少数民族社区的保护，并传播新的信息和预防战略。具体地说， 博士布卢门塔尔是中国癌症预防和控制研究网络的主要负责人，其使命是 是在少数民族社区加速采用循证癌症预防和控制。

Priority-Setting Stage Pilot Project #1 (Drs. Davidson and Hsieh) is fully conceived, planned and staffed. Consequently this project will be implemented immediately upon funding. Pilot project #2 will be selected during Year 1 by a Priority-setting process described as follows. We have selected an Internal Advisory Committee comprised of 6 cancer investigators: The two Lead Pis plus 2 additional members from each institution: Alec J. Davidson, PhD is an assistant professor in the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology, and a member of the Neuroscience Institute and Circadian Rhythms and Sleep Disorders Program. Dr. Davidson has been pursuing research on the relationship between circadian clocks and cancer for 4 years, and is currently PI of an R21 grant from NCI to investigate this issue in a rat model of hepatocellular carcinoma. He is the MSM Lead-Pi of this grant application. Sandra Harris-Hooker, PhD is the Vice President and Associate Dean for Sponsored Research Administration at MSM, and the Director of the Minority Biomedical Research Support Program at Morehouse School of Medicine, a program dedicated to the development of future biomedical research scholars. With professional training in Cell Biology, and postgraduate emphasis in Cardiovascular Pathology, Dr. Harris- Hooker has worked in the area of vascular cell biology for over 20 years, studying enddthelial dysfunctions involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. While her primary research area is vascular biology, she is also interested in ways by which to enhance the integration of basic, clinical and population-based research in order to address disparities in health. Dr. Harris-Hooker has been on the MSM faculty since 1983. Daniel Blumenthal, MD, MPH, is Chairman of the Department of Community Health and Preventive Medicine and Principal Investigator of the Morehouse School of Medicine Prevention Research Center (PRC). The mission of the PRC is to advance scientific knowledge in the field of prevention of disease in African American and other minority communities and to disseminate new information and strategies of prevention. Specifically, Dr. Blumenthal is PI of the Cancer Prevention and Control Research network within the PRC, whose mission it is to accelerate the adoption of evidence-based cancer prevention and control in minority communities.
