Research Translation Core

研究翻译核心项目摘要 金属中心的研究翻译核心（RTC）将利用一个独特的网络， 四十年来，促进我们的研究人员和学员之间的信息多方向翻译， 受影响的美洲原住民社区、地方、区域和国家政府合作伙伴， 研究人员和重要的最终用户，以解决与混合金属有关的真实的和紧迫的问题 废弃的铀矿区。我们的假设是， 翻译和交流支持更知情的预防、研究和政策决定。的RTC 目标（1）在UNM METALS研究人员、受训人员和核心人员之间建立研究翻译论坛， 在METALS和其他SRP项目中识别和翻译研究产品;（2）扩大我们的 在部落、州和国家各级政府机构网络之间的通信接口 在金属混合物的健康影响和风险降低战略方面有共同的信息需求 （3）开发和应用独特的多方向研究翻译框架，以提供及时的 向社区合作伙伴和其他重要的最终用户提供易于理解的信息，使他们能够 参与制定政策和未来的研究方向;（4）确保技术和方法的发展 通过对合作伙伴的直接培训，并在适当时， 通过UNM技术转让支持的商业化。独特的 区域培训中心领导层将调查结果转化为土著社区的观点和部落的观点 监管机构、临床医生和科学家的参与将最终影响研究的设计和实施方式 与原住民社区的参与，也满足了对暴露和健康数据的需求 AUM对土著社区的影响。

RESEARCH TRANSLATION CORE PROJECT SUMMARY The Research Translation Core (RTC) of the METALS Center will utilize a unique network built over nearly four decades to facilitate the multidirectional translation of information among our researchers and trainees and to impacted Native American communities, local, regional and national governmental partners, other SRP researchers and important end-users to address real and immediate concerns related to mixed metals exposures from abandoned uranium mining sites. Our hypothesis is that increased multidirectional translation and communication supports more informed prevention, research, and policy decisions. The RTC aims (1) establish research translation forums among UNM METALS researchers, trainees, and cores to identify and translate research products within METALS and to other SRP programs; (2) expand our communications interface across a network of governmental agencies at the tribal, state, and national levels with shared information needs on the health effects and risk reduction strategies for metals mixtures exposures; (3) develop and apply unique multi-directional research translation frameworks to provide timely and understandable information to community partners and other important end users to enabling them to engage in setting policy and future research directions; and (4) ensure technologies and method developed through the UNM METALS SRC are made available through direct training of partners and, when appropriate, through commercialization supported through UNM’s STC.UNM technology transfer support. The unique perspective of the RTC leadership on translating findings to indigenous communities and perspectives of tribes to regulators, clinicians, and scientists will ultimately influence the way research is designed and conducted with the engagement of Native communities, and also fulfills the need for data on exposures and health impacts of AUM on indigenous communities.
