项目摘要/摘要 美国欧亚癌症联盟(AECA)成立于2001年，最初名为美俄癌症 联盟(ARCA)，代表着来自俄罗斯联邦和 美国。基于ARCA的成功和东欧和中亚日益增长的兴趣 在各国，联盟的范围和深度扩大到欧亚区域，包括研究， 研究培训、从研究到政策，以及卫生外交活动。 该项目于2014年更名为美国欧亚癌症联盟(AECA)，以代表 更广泛的国家参与，包括以下区域：俄罗斯联邦、中央 亚洲(哈萨克斯坦、乌兹别克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦、塔吉克斯坦)、中欧(乌克兰、摩尔多瓦、白俄罗斯)、波罗的海国家 (立陶宛、拉脱维亚、爱沙尼亚)和高加索(亚美尼亚、格鲁吉亚、阿塞拜疆)。该联盟的目标是汇集知识分子 和科学资源，以进一步研究和发现癌症预防和治疗策略。AECA‘s 这些计划主要集中在三个领域： 1.加强全球癌症研究 2.推动科研培训和教育 3.将研究转化为政策和计划 AECA与欧亚大陆的几个国家建立了伙伴关系，这些伙伴关系是通过#年的备忘录正式确立的。 卫生部之间在癌症研究、预防和控制方面的合作谅解。穿过 AECA继续与高级别利益攸关方接触，促进欧亚地区的资源分配 政府和癌症研究机构为美国和当地人民的共同利益。这 参与减少了NCI指定的癌症中心和其他美国总部的财务负担 研究所建立和实施他们的研究方案。在COVID大流行期间，AECA继续 它不间断地工作，尽管是通过虚拟渠道，继续促进研究、开展 教育和公共卫生倡议。AECA与NCI人员一起努力进行这项工作。

Project Summary/Abstract The American Eurasian Cancer Alliance (AECA) was formed in 2001, originally called American Russian Cancer Alliance (ARCA), representing a unique partnership of scientists and clinicians from Russian Federation and the United States. Based on the successes of ARCA and growing interest from Eastern European and Central Asian countries, the scope and depth of the alliance expanded to the Eurasian region encompassing research, research training, research to policy, and health diplomacy activities. The program was re-branded under the American Eurasian Cancer Alliance (AECA) in 2014 to represent the wider range of national participation, which encompasses the following regions: Russian Federation, Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan), Central Europe (Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus), Baltics (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia), and Caucasus (Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan). The Alliance aims to pool intellectual and scientific resources to further research and discovery in cancer prevention and treatment strategies. AECA’s programs focus on three main areas: 1. Strengthening Global Cancer Research 2. Promoting Research Training and Education 3. Translating Research into Policy and Programs AECA has formed partnerships with several countries in Eurasia which were formalized through Memoranda of Understanding between Ministries of Health for cooperation in cancer research, prevention, and control. Through continued engagement with high-level stakeholders, AECA facilitates allocation of resources by Eurasian governments and cancer research institutes for the mutual benefit of U.S. and local populations. This engagement results in reduced financial burden to NCI-Designated Cancer Centers, and other U.S.-based institutes to establish and implement their research programs. During the COVID pandemic, AECA has continued its worked uninterrupted, albeit through virtual channels, by continuing to facilitate research, conducting education and public health initiatives. AECA works with NCI personnel in this effort.
