PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT (OVERALL): Individuals from underserved minority communities in the U.S. experience poor outcomes for the majority of cancers as a result of inequities in access to high quality healthcare, socio-cultural and environmental determinants, and in some cases behavioral and biologic factors. Inequities in cancer outcomes are rooted in a wide range of structural, socio-cultural, and policy-related determinants that are operative throughout the U.S., but local factors can perpetuate and influence the magnitude of disparate cancer outcomes. To some extent, high cancer mortality among racial and ethnic minority segments of the population is a national manifestation of a wide range of local problems. A promising strategy to address cancer disparities is to foster research to understand local patterns of cancer mortality and root causes of disparities, and to test interventions informed by those findings that account for the needs of the local community. This paradigm for addressing cancer disparities has been successfully employed by a large cadre of cancer researchers at the University of Illinois Cancer Center (UICC) for more than a decade and forms the basis of the UICC vision to be a “bench- to-community” NCI-designated cancer center. Governors State University (GSU) has invested substantially in basic science and health science infrastructure, increased efforts to recruit faculty members with an interest in research, and significantly enhanced research support services over the past several years. As a result, GSU is positioned to address growing cancer disparities in their community. The overall goal of this proposal is to develop additional infrastructure that will build on the strengths of the partnering institutions in order to enhance their capacity to conduct cancer health inequities research that is driven by local data and informed by the cancer-related needs of local communities.

项目总结/摘要（总体）： 来自美国服务不足的少数族裔社区的个人在医疗保健方面的结果很差。 大多数癌症是由于在获得高质量医疗保健、社会文化和 环境决定因素，在某些情况下，行为和生物因素。癌症中的不平等 结果植根于广泛的结构、社会文化和政策相关的决定因素， 在美国各地都有活动但当地因素可以延续和影响的规模， 不同的癌症结果。在某种程度上，少数种族和民族的癌症死亡率很高 人口中的某些阶层是一系列广泛的地方问题的全国表现。一个有前途 解决癌症差异的战略是促进研究，以了解当地的癌症模式 死亡率和差距的根本原因，并测试根据这些调查结果采取的干预措施， 考虑到当地社区的需要。这种解决癌症差异的范例 他成功地被伊利诺伊大学的一大批癌症研究人员雇用， 癌症中心（UICC）的十多年，并形成了UICC的愿景是一个“板凳- “社区”的国家癌症研究所指定癌症中心。州长州立大学（GSU）投资了 大力加强基础科学和卫生科学基础设施， 对研究有兴趣的成员，并大大加强了研究支持服务， 过去几年。因此，GSU的定位是解决日益增长的癌症差异， 社区本提案的总体目标是开发更多的基础设施， 合作机构的优势，以提高其开展癌症健康工作的能力 由当地数据驱动并根据当地癌症相关需求进行的不平等研究 社区.
