SFSU/UCSF Comprehensive cancer Partnership Program

旧金山弗朗西斯科州立大学（SFSU）和加州大学综合癌症中心（UCSFCC）提出了一个56规划计划，包括两个研究试点项目的前列腺癌和乳腺癌和培训计划，以鼓励和准备少数民族护理学生获得博士学位。关注癌症研究和健康差异的学位。它还包括社区外展和教育组成部分，以及少数民族教师发展活动纳入试点项目和计划。拟议计划的主要活动之一是招聘活动，这将导致SFSU立即聘用一名高级生物行为研究人员，并在未来五年内聘用六名初级教师研究人员，他们都将成为SFSU新的生物行为研究中心的核心。SFSU的总统已承诺$1M，以帮助建立这个新的中心，并分配持续的人员资金为终身，高级教授，以填补这一职位。该提案是SFSU和UCSFCC的教师和管理人员进行广泛规划的结果，他们仔细考虑了两个机构的优势和劣势，以及两个机构可以互补和加强彼此工作的方式。本提案选择的项目、计划和活动是那些使合作伙伴和周围社区互惠互利的项目、计划和活动，这些社区的卫生保健网络服务较差。其中一个直接的好处是将来自少数群体的个人纳入癌症预防试验。我们组建了一个由高效研究人员组成的杰出项目指导委员会，他们支持为传统上在生物医学和生物行为研究人员中代表性不足的个人增加机会，并消除SFSU的教师和管理人员之间的健康差异，以建立更紧密的联系UCSFCC和少数族裔社区，与社区组织合作，开发利用SFSU/UCSFCC合作伙伴关系的综合资源和优势的新项目，并致力于U-54项目赠款的开发。

San Francisco State University (SFSU) and the University of California Comprehensive Cancer Center (UCSFCC) propose a 56 planning program comprised of two research pilot projects on prostate and breast cancer and a training program to encourage and prepare minority nursing students to earn Ph.D. degrees focusing on cancer research and health disparities. It also includes community outreach and education components as well as minority faculty development activities incorporated within the pilot projects and program. One of the major activities of the proposed program is a recruitment activity that will result in the immediate hiring of a senior-level biobehavioral researcher at SFSU and, over the next five years, the hiring of six junior-faculty researchers-all of whom will form the core of a new Biobehavioral Research Center at SFSU.. The President of SFSU has committed $1M to help build-out this new Center, and to allocating ongoing personnel funds for a tenured, senior level professor to fill this position. The proposal is the result of extensive planning among faculty and administrators at SFSU and the UCSFCC who took into careful consideration the strengths and weaknesses of both institutions and the ways in which the institutions could complement and strengthen each other's work. Projects, programs, and activities selected for this proposal are those that will mutually benefit both partners and surrounding neighborhoods which are poorly served by the health care network. One such direct benefit will be the enrollment of individuals from minority groups into cancer prevention trials. We have assembled an outstanding Program Steering Committee of highly productive researchers who have championed both increasing opportunities for individuals traditionally under-represented in biomedical and biobehavioral researcher and the elimination of health disparities Faculty and administrators from SFSU, to develop closer connections between the UCSFCC and minority communities, to work with community organizations to develop novel programs which take advantage of the combined resources and strengths of the SFSU/UCSFCC partnership, and to work toward the development of a U-54 program grant.
