DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Weaving an Islander Network for Cancer Awareness, Research and Training (WINCART): The overarching goal of the proposed Center is to contribute to the reduction of cancer health disparities among Pacific Islanders (PIs) in Southern California through an integrated program of research, training, and community education utilizing a multi-level, interdisciplinary, approach that is driven by community based participatory research (CBPR) principles. Building upon the successes of our first Community Network Program (CNP) WINCART: Weaving an Islander Network for Cancer Awareness, Research and Training (U01CA114591/WINCART1), this new Center's programs and cores incorporate the themes of reducing chronic disease mortality and morbidity through lifestyle change (Research Program; Intervention Project), exploring cultural and ethical issues around biobanking to enhance the promise of personalized medicine (Research Program: Pilot Project), increasing prevention and early detection through assessment and community education (Community Outreach Program), and training of early career investigators in CBPR methods (Training Program). Experienced community leaders and researchers will facilitate integration across all Center components (Administrative Core). The overarching CBPR principles and processes in WINCART2 derive from those established in WINCART1, and include: 1) shared participation by both community and academic researchers in the planning, development, implementation and evaluation of community education, research, and training activities; 2) co-learning between all academic and community partners via joint activities in the Center's core, programs, and projects; 3) collaboration mechanisms, through the Center Steering Committee and Community Advisory Groups, that ensure fidelity to CBPR tenets among center partners and trainees; and 4) promotion of lasting community benefits across multiple levels of factors associated with PI cancer health disparities. WINCART2 incorporates the multilevel population health approach to address cancer health disparities, and employs new technologies (including distance learning, electronic surveys and intervention systems) for communication within the Center, dissemination to external audiences, and/aci7ztarion of state-of-the-science research, all in the service of reducing cancer health disparities among PIs.

描述（由申请人提供）：编织一个岛民网络，促进癌症意识、研究和培训：该中心的总体目标是通过研究，培训和社区教育的综合计划，利用多层次，跨学科，基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）原则。在我们的第一个社区网络计划（CNP）WINCART成功的基础上：编织一个岛民网络，以提高癌症意识，研究和培训（U 01 CA 114591/WINCART 1），这个新中心的方案和核心纳入了通过改变生活方式降低慢性病死亡率和发病率的主题（研究计划;干预项目），探索围绕生物库的文化和伦理问题，以提高个性化医疗的承诺（研究方案：试点项目），通过评估和社区教育加强预防和早期发现（社区外展方案），以及对早期职业调查人员进行CBPR方法培训（培训方案）。经验丰富的社区领导人和研究人员将促进所有中心组成部分（行政核心）的整合。WINCART 2的总体CBPR原则和流程源于WINCART 1中建立的原则和流程，包括：1）社区和学术研究人员共同参与社区教育，研究和培训活动的规划，开发，实施和评估; 2）通过中心核心，计划和项目的联合活动，所有学术和社区合作伙伴之间的共同学习; 3）通过中心指导委员会和社区咨询小组的合作机制，确保中心合作伙伴和学员对CBPR原则的忠诚;以及4）在与PI癌症健康差异相关的多个层面的因素中促进持久的社区利益。WINCART 2采用多层次的人口健康方法来解决癌症健康差异，并采用新技术（包括远程学习，电子调查和干预系统）进行中心内部的沟通，向外部受众传播，并进行最新的科学研究，所有这些都是为了减少PI之间的癌症健康差异。
