项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The Markey Cancer Center (MCC) at the University of Kentucky collectively delivers highly successful training programs spanning from K-12 to faculty level through the Cancer Research Training and Education Coordination (CRTEC) component. MCC’s CRTEC programs and activities are structured around specific aims to: 1) Generate early interest in cancer-related careers, emphasizing those underrepresented in science; 2) Promote education and career development of a diverse cadre of graduate and postdoctoral cancer researchers; and 3) Foster research faculty career development in basic, population and clinical/translational sciences. Key education activities address the academic challenges across medically and educationally underserved rural Appalachian Kentucky and for underrepresented minorities through support from five grants that include an NCI Youth Enjoy Science R25 program. These efforts complement impactful structured academic and research training at the graduate, postdoctoral and medical residency levels, including three NCI-funded T32 training grants. Through new initiatives such as the recently funded NCI T32 focused on health equities and undergraduate research programs targeting underrepresented and underserved populations, MCC’s CRTEC component expands its comprehensive training reach to implement bold diversity initiatives that complement well-established and emerging state-of-the-art cancer curricula and enrich MCC Research Programs. The establishment of sustainable NIH-funded Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence awards with dedicated cancer themes and associated junior faculty mentorship augment MCC’s long-standing American Cancer Society Institutional Research Grant support for early-stage faculty and effective team-based faculty mentorship mechanisms across basic, population and clinical research levels that are significantly expanding MCC’s extramural funding base. Further targeted mentorship of early career clinical investigators through mechanisms such as the Clinical Trials Boot Camp fosters the development of investigator-initiated trials that translate MCC science to the clinic. The MCC Affiliate Network provides an effective conduit for multi-faceted statewide training of health care professionals in state-of-the-art cancer care, which is needed to address the tremendous cancer burden within Kentucky and the region. A rich cadre of seminars, symposia, meetings and career enrichment activities facilitate successful career development for all individuals engaged in cancer research and clinical practice. The MCC’s collective efforts draw on vital institutional training resources to achieve the overarching goals of this program, which are to guide cohesive growth and coordinate transdisciplinary education and mentoring endeavors across the MCC and integrate them with efforts campus-wide and nationally. Through coordination supported by MCC’s Cancer Center Support Grant, this comprehensive program will continue to evolve innovative curricula and strategically linked initiatives to prepare trainees and faculty for evolving cancer career opportunities.

项目摘要/摘要肯塔基大学的Marky Cancer Center（MCC）共同提供了非常成功的通过癌症研究培训和教育，从K-12到教师层面的培训计划协调（CRTEC）组件。 MCC的CRTEC计划和活动是围绕特定目的进行的至：1）对与癌症相关的职业产生早期兴趣，强调科学领域的人数不足； 2）促进研究生和博士后癌的潜水员干部的教育和职业发展研究人员； 3）基本，人口和临床/翻译的培养研究教师职业发展科学。关键的教育活动应对医学和教育方面的学术挑战通过五项补助其中包括NCI青年享受科学R25计划。这些努力完善了有影响力的结构化研究生，博士后和医学居住水平的学术和研究培训，包括三个 NCI资助的T32培训补助金。通过新的计划，例如最近资助的NCI T32 卫生公平和本科研究计划的代表性不足和服务不足人群，MCC的CRTEC组件扩大了其全面的培训范围，以实施大胆的多样性补充公认和新兴的最先进的癌症课程并丰富MCC的举措研究计划。建立可持续的NIH资助的生物医学研究中心卓越奖励颁发专门的癌症主题和相关的初级教师指导增强MCC 长期以来，美国癌症协会的机构研究赠款支持早期教师跨基本，人口和临床研究水平的有效基于团队的教师心态机制大大扩大了MCC的校外资金基础。早期职业临床的进一步目标心态通过临床试验训练营等机制进行的调查人员促进了研究人员发射的试验将MCC科学转化为诊所。 MCC会员网络提供在最先进的癌症护理中对医疗保健专业人员进行多方面全州培训的有效导管，需要解决肯塔基州和该地区巨大的癌症燃烧所需的。有钱的干部半手，研讨会，会议和职业充实活动有助于所有人的成功职业发展从事癌症研究和临床实践的人。 MCC的集体努力取决于至关重要的机构培训资源以实现该计划的总体目标，这是为了指导凝聚力成长和协调跨学科的教育和跨MCC的心理努力并整合他们努力在校园和全国范围内努力。通过MCC癌症中心支持的协调支持赠款，这个全面的计划将继续发展创新的课程并在战略上联系为学员和教师准备发展癌症职业机会的举措。
