The Research Education Component (REC) of the Deep South RCMAR is designed to recruit, educate, and support a diverse group of faculty at our four partnering institutions (Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM), Tuskegee University (TU), The University of Alabama (UA) and The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). The focus is to Mentor junior faculty to achieve enduring research careers focused on reducing health disparities between Black African Americans (B/AA) and White older adults in the Deep South (a region of the country where the majority of older B/AAs live, and health disparities have been particularly persistent). This long- term collaboration between institutions that vary greatly in their respective cultures, research emphases, infrastructure, and faculty backgrounds will increases the pool of faculty applicants to the program. Each partnering institution brings unique strengths to the RCMAR. The benefits of collaboration for the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) include exposure to more senior researchers with extensive research portfolios available to serve as Program Mentors. The strengths of the HBCUs to the collaboration include a pool of faculty experienced in cultural sensitivity who are committed to aging research leading to the reduction of health inequities. Additionally, TU brings unique strength in bioethics, a key component for scientists interested in addressing health disparities in the Deep South. The overall goals of the REC are to: (1) build research capacity and increase the diversity of the research workforce, (2) Mentor our Scientists by providing opportunities for them to work on interdisciplinary teams, exposing them to the methodologies and theories of other scientific disciplines pertinent to the study of age-related phenomena, 3) support our Scientists in pursuing independent careers in aging and health disparities research through ongoing Mentoring, and (4) build research capacity through funding for pilot grants and assistance in the submission of future competitive research projects. To insure the success of the REC, we will draw from a large pool of established Mentors at all partner institutions. We will evaluate the program through various indicators of Scientist career independence including publications, successful grant applications, promotions, and service in the academic community (e.g., editorial board memberships, participation on study sections). In these ways, the REC will help diversify the cadre of scientists engaged in aging research, with the ultimate goal of reducing health inequities in the older population. Through improving the diversity of scientists trained in this area of research, the expectation is that global competitiveness will be improved, scientific innovation will be enhanced, and older adults will benefit.

深南RCMAR的研究教育部分（REC）旨在招募， 教育，并支持我们的四个合作机构（莫尔豪斯）教师的多元化群体 医学院（MSM），塔斯基吉大学（TU），亚拉巴马大学（UA）和 亚拉巴马大学伯明翰分校。重点是指导初级教员实现 持久的研究事业，重点是减少非洲黑人之间的健康差距 美国人（B/AA）和南方腹地的白色老年人（美国的一个地区， 大多数年龄较大的B/AAs生活，健康差距特别持久）。这么久- 长期合作机构之间的差异很大，在各自的文化，研究 重点，基础设施和教师背景将增加教师申请人的数量， 节目每个合作机构都为RCMAR带来了独特的优势。的好处 历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）的合作包括接触 更多拥有广泛研究成果的资深研究人员可担任项目导师。 HBCUs的合作优势包括一批在文化方面经验丰富的教师 致力于老龄化研究，以减少健康不平等的敏感性。 此外，TU在生物伦理学方面具有独特的优势，这是科学家感兴趣的一个关键组成部分。 解决南方腹地的健康差距。REC的总体目标是：（1）建立 研究能力和增加研究人员的多样性，（2）指导我们的科学家 通过为他们提供在跨学科团队中工作的机会，让他们接触到 与年龄相关的研究相关的其他科学学科的方法和理论 现象，3）支持我们的科学家在追求独立的职业生涯在老龄化和健康 通过持续的指导进行差异研究，以及（4）通过资助建立研究能力 在提交未来的竞争性研究项目时提供试点赠款和援助。以确保 为了REC的成功，我们将从所有合作伙伴的大量知名导师中汲取经验， 机构职能体系我们将通过科学家职业生涯的各种指标来评估该计划 独立性，包括出版物，成功的赠款申请，晋升和服务， 学术界（例如，编辑委员会成员，参与研究部分）。在这些 通过各种方式，REC将有助于使从事老龄化研究的科学家队伍多样化， 最终目标是减少老年人口的健康不平等。通过提高多样性 在这一研究领域接受过培训的科学家中，预期全球竞争力将 改进后，科学创新将得到加强，老年人将受益。
