Capacity building is necessary for supporting research on issues affecting human health in under-resourced communities such as Puerto Rico. The Technologies and Resources for Research Laboratories Core (TRRCL) is a component of the Hispanic Alliance for Clinical and Translational Research (the Alliance) composed of the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus (UPR-MSC), the Ponce Medical School Foundation (PMSF), and the Universidad Central del Caribe (UCC). TRRCL services to clinical and translational investigators in Puerto Rico has increased steadily from 2014 until 2019. Under the newly conceived Alliance, the TRRCL team proposes to continue developing the capacity of TRRCL to fulfill the needs of clinical and translational investigators who require specialized laboratory equipment and services to conduct their research. It is expected that continuous access to cutting-edge technologies and laboratory resources facilitated by the TRRCL will motivate more investigators to conduct clinical and translational research successfully and increase the institutional capacity to address health issues impacting underserved Hispanic populations in Puerto Rico and the rest of the US. The TRRCL´s main goal for this project is to improve shared research facilities for investigators, and to improve access for investigators to these facilities. The objective of TRRCL is to ensure that investigators that require laboratory space and technical support receive access to core laboratory services thereby allowing for the timely completion and publication of their research projects. The central hypothesis is that the TRRCL will catalyze an increase in active clinical and translational research projects in the Alliance institutions. The TRRCL will achieve this by: 1) supporting the training of researchers in the Alliance institutions and increasing researchers´ access to TRRCL cores and highly trained staff; 2) providing investigators the technical expertise and infrastructure they need to produce reliable data that is of publication quality, and; 3) enhancing the impact and outreach of the TRRCLby establishing collaborative agreements with other institutions and by participation in community engagement activities. As the TRRCL usage increases, the team expects to satisfy the increased demand by collaborating INBRE and COBRE research cores in Puerto Rico and in other IDeA states. TRRCLwill complement this support and accelerate progress on research projects that will translate to health benefits for the Puerto Rico population and underserved Hispanic/Latino populations across the nation, and will result in a more competitive biomedical workforce in Puerto Rico supported by state-of-the-art research f ac ilities.

能力建设对于支持在资源贫乏地区影响人类健康问题的研究是必要的 波多黎各等社区。研究实验室核心技术和资源 (TRRCL) 是西班牙临床和转化研究联盟（联盟）的组成部分，该联盟由 波多黎各大学医学科学校区 (UPR-MSC)、庞塞医学院基金会 (PMSF) 和加勒比中央大学 (UCC)。 TRRCL 临床和转化服务 从 2014 年到 2019 年，波多黎各的调查人员数量稳步增加。在新构想的联盟下， TRRCL 团队建议继续发展 TRRCL 的能力，以满足临床和临床的需求 需要专门实验室设备和服务来进行研究的转化研究人员。 预计将持续获得尖端技术和实验室资源 TRRCL 将激励更多的研究人员成功地进行临床和转化研究，并增加 解决影响波多黎各服务不足的西班牙裔人口的健康问题的机构能力 以及美国其他地区。 TRRCL 该项目的主要目标是改善共享研究设施 调查员，并改善调查员进入这些设施的机会。 TRRCL 的目标是确保 需要实验室空间和技术支持的研究人员可以获得核心实验室服务 从而能够及时完成并发表他们的研究项目。中心假设是 TRRCL 将促进联盟中活跃的临床和转化研究项目的增加 机构。 TRRCL 将通过以下方式实现这一目标：1）支持联盟机构研究人员的培训 增加研究人员接触 TRRCL 核心和训练有素的工作人员的机会； 2) 为研究者提供 他们需要生成具有出版质量的可靠数据所需的技术专业知识和基础设施； 3） 通过与其他机构建立合作协议来增强 TRRCL 的影响力和外展范围 以及参与社区参与活动。随着 TRRCL 使用量的增加，团队预计 通过在波多黎各和其他地区合作 INBRE 和 COBRE 研究核心来满足不断增长的需求 IDea 指出。 TRRCL 将补充这一支持并加快研究项目的进展，这些项目将转化为 为波多黎各人口和全国服务不足的西班牙裔/拉丁裔人口提供健康福利， 并将在最先进的研究的支持下，为波多黎各带来更具竞争力的生物医学劳动力 设施。
