Comprehensive SDSU-UCSD Cancer Center Partnership (2 of 2)

圣地亚哥州立大学（SDSU）和加州大学圣地亚哥分校（UCSD）有着悠久的合作历史，包括研究，联合研究生课程和旨在提高不同社区福祉的外展计划。位于该国最具种族多样性的地区之一，项目和方案集中在传统上服务不足的社区。合作伙伴关系规划进程为成功实施全面伙伴关系建立了重要的基础设施。建立了新的示范性研究、培训和外联机构间合作。这些举措证明是非常富有成效的努力，以以前不可能的方式解决癌症差异。 综合SDSU-UCSD癌症伙伴关系的总体目标建立在迄今为止的进展，并加强癌症研究和研究培训在SDSU;提高UCSD癌症中心（UCSD-CC）在研究，研究培训和职业发展的有效性有关少数民族;并继续发展有效的研究、教育和推广计划，这将对消除癌症差距产生影响。具体目标是：（1）增进与得不到充分服务的族裔社区有关的癌症研究知识;（2）教育和培训癌症研究方面有前途的少数民族科学家;（3）增加从事与文化有关的癌症研究和社区外联及教育的教师、科学家和学生人数;（4）扩大社区教育和外展计划，并将这些计划纳入研究。 为达致这些目标，私人机构和地方谘询委员会将继续紧密合作，以确定优先次序和促进新的合作。该伙伴关系建立在机构领导人的明确承诺和坚定的方案指导委员会（PSC）的稳定指导的基础上。最初，总共三个（一个试点和两个完整的）研究项目，一个完整的培训计划，和癌症差异社区合作伙伴和研究资源将通过发展基金的支持。我们迄今取得的成功表明，发展基金的支持将导致有竞争力的出版物和赠款申请，从而支持伙伴关系的目标。

San Diego State University (SDSU) and the University of California at San Diego (UCSD) share a long history of collaboration that includes research, joint graduate programs, and outreach programs designed to enhance the well-being of diverse communities. Located in one of the most ethnically diverse regions of the country, projects and programs have focused on a wide array of traditionally underserved communities. The collaborative Partnership planning process has built critical infrastructure to implement a successful Comprehensive Partnership. New exemplary research, training, and outreach inter-institutional collaborations have been established. These initiatives are demonstrating to be very productive efforts to address cancer disparities in ways that were not possible before. The overall goals of the Comprehensive SDSU-UCSD Cancer Partnership build on the progress to date and are to enhance cancer research and research training at SDSU; increase the effectiveness of the UCSD Cancer Center (UCSD-CC) in research, research training and career development related to minorities; and to continue the development of effective research, education, and outreach programs that will have an impact on the elimination of cancer disparities. The specific objectives are to: (1) Advance the body of knowledge in cancer research relevant to underserved ethnic communities; (2) Educate and train promising minority scientists in cancer research; (3) Increase the number of faculty, scientists, and students engaged in culturally relevant cancer research and community outreach and education; and (4) Expand community education and outreach programs and integrate these programs into the research. To achieve these objectives, PIs and the Local Advisory Committee (LAC) will continue to work closely together to establish priorities and to foster new collaborations. The Partnership builds on the unequivocal commitment of the Institutional leaders and the steady guidance of a committed Program Steering Committee (PSC). Initially, a total of three (one pilot and two full) research projects, one full training program, and a Cancer Disparities Community Partners and Research Resource will be supported through developmental funds. Our successes to date suggests that the developmental fund support will result in competitive publications and grant applications that will support the Partnership's goals.
