Career E Core

职业提升核心(CEC)对于满足社会资本中心(SOCA)的使命至关重要 减少持续贫困地区的癌症发病率。SOCA CEC将实施多管齐下的 支持早期研究人员进入、保留和发展癌症健康的方法 最贫困人口之间的差距研究。为此，我们开发了SOCA方法，该方法 我们将其定义为为社交网络开发可持续的基础设施，其中已建立的规范 产生了对癌症健康研究人员进入、保留和发展的期望 不平等，推进个人和社区的集体目标。为此，CEC将利用 现有方案和建立所需的方案，协调激活和支持的集体努力 在生物医学企业中持续调动早期研究人员，并拥有所需的专业知识 服务于服务不足的社区。CEC将通过开发基于网络的方案来支持进入 基础设施，以识别和帮助现有调查人员确保多样性补充剂(DSS)，这将 支持所有符合条件的早期调查人员阶段(从最早的高中到初级教师的支持) 世卫组织致力于贫困社区癌症健康差距的研究(Aim1)。保留早期发展阶段 致力于服务于服务不足社区的研究人员，我们将实施一名临床研究协调员 本科生、学士研究生和硕士研究生培训计划，将促进进入 长期贫困社区内的临床协调员职位(目标2)。在早期取得进展 调查人员，我们将提供个性化的团队指导和培训方法，以支持 学者有效竞争外部研究资金的能力，加强推广方案的能力，以及 在其投资组合内的PPA中灌输癌症研究(目标3)。 CEC的目标得到了无与伦比的资源的利用，包括出色的培训和 哥伦比亚大学欧文医学中心(CUIMC)、康奈尔大学(CU)和 北州健康科学大学(DownState)，以及可用的核心资源，包括临床 以及翻译科学奖(CTSA)和附属癌症中心。CEC将协同工作 与SOCA中心核心(研究和方法、开发和管理核心)、咨询委员会、 以及支持索卡中心整体使命的项目。中央协调委员会将支持提交≥40DSS， 对20名学生进行了临床研究协调员培训，并对12名SOCA学者进行了个性化培训 授权期。由索卡的核心联席董事(亚兹明·卡拉斯科博士和茉莉·麦克唐纳博士)支持 中央学院，以及CU、CUIMC和DownState-CEC内部和之间的跨机构机会 将创建可持续和可扩展的基础设施和项目，以增加生物医疗劳动力的多样性。

The Career Enhancement Core (CEC) is essential for meeting the Center for Social Capital (SoCa) mission of reducing cancer incidence in persistent poverty areas (PPAs). The SoCa CEC will implement a multipronged approach to support early stage investigators entry, retention, and progression into conducting cancer health disparities research among the most impoverished populations. To this end, we develop the SoCa Method which we define as the development of a sustainable infrastructure for a social network where the established norms of the network produce the expectation of entry, retention, and progression of investigators in cancer health disparities, advancing the individual and the collective goals of the community. To this end, the CEC will leverage existing programs and build needed programming, harmonizing collective efforts that activates and supports sustained movement of early stage investigators across the biomedical enterprise with the expertise needed to serve underserved communities. The CEC will support entry by developing web-based programmatic infrastructure to identify and aid established investigators in securing diversity supplements (DSs) that will support all eligible stages of early stage investigators (from as early as high school through junior faculty support) who are dedicated to cancer health disparities in impoverished communities (Aim1). To retain early stage investigators dedicated to serving underserved communities, we will implement a Clinical Research Coordinator Training Program for undergraduates, post baccalaureates, and master’s students that will facilitate entry into clinical coordinator positions within persistent poverty communities (Aim 2). To progress early stage investigators, we will provide a personalized approach to team-based mentoring and training to bolster the scholars’ ability to compete effectively for external research funding, to strengthen promotional packages, and instill cancer research in PPAs within their portfolio (Aim 3). The CEC objectives are leveraged by unparalleled resources including the outstanding training and educational programs at Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC), Cornell University (CU), and Downstate Health Sciences University (Downstate), as well as, available core resources including the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) and the affiliated Cancer Centers. The CEC will work collaboratively with the SoCa Center Cores (Research and Methods, Development, and Administrative Core), Advisory Board, and Projects to support the SoCa Center’s overall mission. The CEC will support the submission of ≥40 DSs, clinical research coordinator training of 20 students, and personalized training of 12 SoCa Scholars across the granting period. Supported by the Core Co-Directors (Drs. Yazmin Carrasco and Jasmine McDonald), SoCa Center Faculty, and cross-institutional opportunities within and across CU, CUIMC, and Downstate - the CEC will create sustainable and scalable infrastructures and programs that increase biomedical workforce diversity.
