Cherokee Nation Native AmericanResearch Center for Health

项目摘要 切诺基印第安人健康研究中心(Cherokee NArch)试图进行 社区参与的研究和科学劳动力增强项目，能够解决主要的 影响俄克拉荷马州东北部印第安人的健康问题，由切诺基国家健康中心提供服务 系统临床和公共卫生计划。切诺基·纳奇将通过以下方式完成使命 与其研究密集型合作伙伴俄克拉荷马大学健康科学中心的合作 (OUHSC)和俄克拉荷马医学研究基金会(OMRF)，共同执行和评估这些 项目。整个切诺基NARCH方案的目标是：1)加强基础设施以实现可持续发展 切诺基民族与其研究密集型合作伙伴OUHSC和OMRF之间的接触；2) 制定高度协作和强有力的科学研究计划，旨在阐明和补救 影响切罗基民族的主要健康差距；以及3)通过提供 为美国印第安人/阿拉斯加原住民(AI/AN)学生、部落雇员和其他人提供增强机会 希望帮助切诺基民族或其他人工智能/人工智能社区的研究人员解决导致 过高的发病率和死亡率。所有项目都是通过迭代协商和共享决策制定的- 使部落代表、切诺基纳奇领导小组和社区校园参与进来 咨询委员会，以及切诺基民族和OUHSC/OMRF的研究人员。这一过程导致了决定 提出研究、试点研究、学生提升和研究人员提升项目 共同将通过发展土著干部来帮助提高真正的部落研究能力 做好充分准备对主要健康状况进行经验性、科学性调查的调查人员 影响美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民的问题。

Project Summary The Cherokee Nation Native American Research Center for Health (Cherokee NARCH) seeks to conduct community-engaged research and scientific workforce enhancement projects capable of addressing the major health issues affecting American Indians in northeastern Oklahoma that are served by Cherokee Nation Health System clinical and public health programs. Cherokee NARCH will accomplish its mission through collaboration with its research-intensive partners, the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) and the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF), to jointly execute and evaluate these projects. The aims of the overall Cherokee NARCH program are: 1) to strengthen infrastructure for sustained engagement between the Cherokee Nation and its research intensive-partners, OUHSC and OMRF; 2) to develop a highly collaborative and robust program of scientific research aimed at elucidating and remedying major health disparities affecting the Cherokee Nation; and 3) to grow the scientific workforce by providing enhancement opportunities for American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) students, tribal employees and other researchers who wish to help the Cherokee Nation or other AI/AN communities address leading causes of excess morbidity and mortality. All projects were developed through iterative consultation and shared decision- making involving tribal representatives, the Cherokee NARCH Leadership Team and Community-Campus Advisory Council, and researchers at Cherokee Nation and OUHSC/OMRF. This process led to the decision to propose research, pilot research, student enhancement and researcher enhancement projects that taken together will help grow genuine tribal research capacity through the development of a cadre of Native investigators who are well-prepared to conduct empirically based, scientific investigation on the major health issues affecting American Indians and Alaska Natives.
