The New York University (NYU) Center for the Study of Asian American Health (CSAAH) is a partnership of an academic medical and research center (NYU), several healthcare and public hospital organizations, and more than 55 community and government partners serving NYC's Asian American community. CSAAH's primary mission is to address, alleviate, and eliminate Asian American health disparities through a trans disciplinary and community-engaged research approach. To accomplish this mission, CSAAH is committed to the following guiding principles: 1) systemic change through the use of multiple strategies and working with diverse stakeholders; 2) equitable "partnerships" in research, training, and outreach; 3) action-oriented research; 4) strengthening research capacity of both community and academic partners to fully engage in the research process; and 5) conducting multicultural evaluation as a means to foster ownership, sustainability and impact. These guiding principles are integrated in each of CSAAH's four cores: 1) Administrative, 2) Research, 3) Research Training and Education, and 4) Community Engagement and Outreach. The Specific Aims of the overall Center are to: a) develop and conduct research to understand, address, and eliminate health disparities in the Asian American community; b) build new and strengthen existing private and public partnerships in order to increase outreach, dissemination advocacy, and research capacity to address Asian American health disparities and social inequalities; and c) train a cadre of health and public health professionals on community-based approaches to conducting research, outreach, service delivery, and advocacy in the Asian American community. CSAAH has been organized into five research tracks: 1) Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes; 2) Tumorigenesis; 3) Mental Health; 4) Social and Cultural Determinants of Health; and 5) Pilot Project Research. There are two main research projects proposed for this application. The OASIS Project is focused on developing and implementing a culturally-appropriate faith-based intervention to reduce obesity and social stressors in South Asian communities. The second research project tests the efficacy of a pilot intervention to reduce the risk of lymphedema among Chinese breast cancer survivors and improve quality of life and health issues for these women. In addition, there are many community engagement, research training, education, dissemination, and community health and resource needs assessments planned during the grant period with local and national academic and community partners serving Asian Americans populations.

纽约大学(NYU)亚裔美国人健康研究中心(CSAAH)是由一个学术医学和研究中心(NYU)、几个医疗保健和公立医院组织以及55多个为纽约市亚裔社区服务的社区和政府合作伙伴组成的伙伴关系。CSAAH的主要使命是通过跨学科和社区参与的研究方法来解决、缓解和消除亚裔美国人的健康差距。为了完成这一使命，CSAAH致力于以下指导原则：1)通过使用多种战略并与不同的利益攸关方合作进行系统性改革；2)在研究、培训和推广方面建立公平的“伙伴关系”；3)以行动为导向的研究；4)加强社区和学术合作伙伴的研究能力，以充分参与研究过程；以及5)进行多元文化评估，以促进所有权、可持续性和影响力。这些指导原则被整合到CSAAH的四个核心中：1)行政，2)研究，3)研究培训和教育，4)社区参与和外展。整个中心的具体目标是：a)开发和开展研究，以了解、解决和消除亚裔美国人社区中的健康差距；b)建立新的和加强现有的私营和公共伙伴关系，以增加外展、传播宣传和研究能力，以解决亚裔美国人的健康差距和社会不平等问题；以及c)培训一支卫生和公共卫生专业人员队伍，以社区为基础的方法在亚裔美国人社区进行研究、外展、服务提供和宣传。CSAAH被组织成五个研究轨道：1)心血管疾病和糖尿病；2)肿瘤发生；3)精神健康；4)健康的社会和文化决定因素；以及5)试点项目研究。针对这一应用提出了两个主要的研究项目。绿洲项目的重点是开发和实施适合文化的宗教干预措施，以减少南亚社区的肥胖症和社会压力。第二个研究项目测试了一项试点干预措施的有效性，该干预措施旨在降低中国乳腺癌幸存者的淋巴水肿风险，并改善这些女性的生活质量和健康问题。此外，在赠款期间，还有许多社区参与、研究培训、教育、传播以及社区健康和资源需求评估，计划与当地和国家学术和社区合作伙伴一起为亚裔美国人提供服务。
