CSUF and UCI-CFCCC Partnership for Cancer Health Disparities Research (2 of 2)

描述（申请人提供）：加州州立大学富勒顿分校（CSUF）和加州大学欧文·赵家庭综合癌症中心（UCI-CFCCC）计划建立合作伙伴关系，在CSUF和UCI-CFCCC的教职员工之间开发试点研究项目，这些项目将为ROI或其他有竞争力的资助申请产生初步数据，作为这些项目的一部分，指导和培训癌症健康差异研究的早期研究人员和学生。第一项试点研究“宫颈癌幸存者在社会支持、隔离和应对方面的差异”与本申请一起提交。该伙伴关系计划在提案期间资助四个项目。有两个目标;  * 开展试点癌症健康差异研究项目，每个机构至少有一名研究人员参与，这将导致向NCI和其他资助机构提交研究提案。这些项目将增进对癌症健康差异的了解。 * 为参与试点研究项目的早期研究人员和学生提供癌症健康差异研究的指导和培训。通过这样做，我们希望增加进行癌症健康差异研究的调查人员的数量。 索拉帕克·坦贾西里博士，M.P.H. CSUF健康科学教授，F。艾伦·哈贝尔医学博士M.S.P.H. UCI的医学，公共卫生和护理科学教授将担任该伙伴关系的主要研究者。PI与每个站点的项目经理沿着将组成执行委员会（EC），对合作伙伴关系进行监督。EC将收到内部咨询委员会（IAC）的建议，该委员会由PI和CSUF和UCI其他主要教职员工的平等代表组成。UCI-CFCCC高级领导理事会（SLC）将对研究项目进行科学审查。在UCI-CFCCC SLC进行科学审查后，lAC将负责向EC推荐资助项目。实验顾问委员会亦会以逻辑模式为理论架构，评估试验研究项目和整体伙伴关系的过程和成果。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) and the University of California, Irvine Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center (UCI-CFCCC) plan to establish a collaborative partnership to develop pilot research projects between faculty members at CSUF and UCI-CFCCC that will generate preliminary data for ROI or other competitively funded grant applications and, as part of these projects, to mentor and train early stage investigators and students in cancer health disparities research. The first pilot study, "Disparities in Social Support, Isolation and Coping in Cervical Cancer Survivors", is submitted with this application. The Partnership plans to fund four projects during the length of the proposal. There are two objectives;  * To conduct pilot cancer health disparities research projects involving at least one investigator at each institution that will lead to submission of research proposals to NCI and other funding agencies. These projects will advance knowledge regarding cancer health disparities. * To provide mentorship and training in cancer health disparities research to early stage investigators and students who are involved in the pilot research projects. By doing so, we hope to increase the number of investigators conducting research in cancer health disparities. Sora Park Tanjasiri, D.Ph., M.P.H., Professor of Health Sciences at CSUF, and F. Allan Hubbell, M.D., M.S.P.H., Professor of Medicine, Public Health, and Nursing Science at UCI, will serve as Principal Investigators for the Partnership. The PIs, along with the Program Managers at each site, will form the Executive Committee (EC) that will provide oversight for the Partnership. The EC will receive advice from an Internal Advisory Committee (lAC) comprised of the PIs and equal representation from other key faculty members at CSUF and UCI. The UCI-CFCCC Senior Leadership Council (SLC) will conduct scientific reviews of the research projects. The lAC will be the responsible for recommending projects for funding to the EC after scientific review by the UCI-CFCCC SLC. The lAC will also be responsible for the evaluation of the pilot research project and the overall Partnership using the Logic Model as the theoretical framework to evaluate both processes and outcomes.
