TRAINING CORE

培训核心的目的是促进研究人员的学术生涯发展 重点关注拉美裔社区的健康和心理健康差距。发展壮大干部队伍。 由训练有素的拉丁裔调查人员进行研究，解决服务提供问题并分析 制定和测试旨在增加保健机会和护理质量的干预措施的方法， 从而缩小少数群体之间的健康和心理健康差距。我们会做到这一点的 通过为低年级学生设计的密切指导和说教的研究培训和支持计划来实现目标 教职员工、博士后、研究生、儿科和精神科住院医师以及临床 和研究人员。培训核心将建立在两家合作机构合作的基础上 普遍定期审议-CHA卓越研究中心(RCE)--波多黎各大学和 剑桥健康联盟(CHA)-将通过与卫生部的分包合同来加强 护理政策(HCP)，哈佛医学院。来自这三个机构的研究人员已经 共同成功过往，为青年侦查员提供严谨丰富的培训经验 来自不同的背景。具体的培训核心目标是： 目标1：保留支持教职员工和受训人员的普遍定期审议-CHA出口中心培训方案 协调所有站点的资源、领导力和专业知识，以提供正式培训和 辅导。 目标2：增加独立研究人员的数量，他们将专注于减少健康和 拉丁裔的心理健康差距。 目标3：提供一系列个性化的指导和培训活动，为初级调查人员做好准备 在健康差距和少数群体健康领域的独立研究生涯。 目标4：协调和监督在每个地点开展的导师和研究培训活动，以确保 受训人员对拉丁裔健康差距所作贡献的进展和质量 研究。 培训核心将利用并建立在普遍定期审议、CHA和HCP现有系统的基础上，指导少数群体 实习生。将初级少数民族研究人员指导为独立研究人员和高级教职员工 成员将促进关注健康差距的少数民族研究人员的发展，他们将为 既是少数族裔人口的服务提供者，也是下一代 研究人员。

The purpose of the Training Core is to foster the development of the academic careers of researchers focusing on health and mental health disparities in Latino communities. We will recruit and develop a cadre of well-trained Latino investigators to conduct studies that address service delivery issues and analyze methods for the development and testing of interventions designed to increase access and quality of care, thereby reducing health and mental health disparities among minority populations. We will accomplish this goal through a closely mentored and didactic research training and support program designed for junior faculty members, post-doctoral students, graduate students, pediatric and psychiatric residents, and clinical and research fellows. The Training Core will build upon the collaboration of the two partnering institutions for the UPR-CHA Research Center of Excellence (RCE) - the University of Puerto Rico (UPR) and the Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) - and will be enhanced by a subcontract with the Department of Health Care Policy (HCP), Harvard Medical School. Researchers from these three institutions have worked together successfully in the past to provide a rigorous and rich training experience for young investigators from diverse backgrounds. The specific Training Core aims are: AIM 1: Preserve the UPR-CHA EXPORT Center training program that supports faculty and trainees by coordinating resources, leadership and expertise from all sites to provide formal training and mentoring . AIM 2: Increase the number of independent researchers who will focus their careers on reducing health and mental health disparities for Latinos. AIM 3: Provide a series of individualized mentoring and training activities to prepare junior investigators for an independent research career in the area of health disparities and minority health. AIM 4: Coordinate and monitor the mentor and research training activities carried out in each site to ensure the progress and quality of the contributions made by the trainees to Latino health disparities research. The Training Core will utilize and build upon systems in place at UPR, CHA, and HCP to mentor minority trainees. The mentoring of junior minority researchers into independent researchers and senior faculty members will promote the development of minority researchers focusing on health disparities who will serve both as service providers for minority populations as well as future mentors for the next generation of researchers.
