OVERALL SUMMARY The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), through support from the Research Centers at Minority Institutions (RCMI) has created the Border Biomedical Research Center (BBRC) to address issues of Hispanic Health Disparities unique to the far West Texas region that we call the Borderplex. In this proposal UTEP has developed an extensive cadre of collaborators consisting of experts from regional academic, medical, and community partners with the goal to address cancer health disparities that permeate our majority Mexican American population. When combined with our sister city of Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, we represent the largest binational community in the world, with nearly 3 million people. The overall goal for this application is to develop, grow and sustain the extant infrastructure and programs of the BBRC, as well as to recruit, train, and develop cancer scientists and health practitioners to promote high quality cancer research and to translate meaningful findings back to the community. Through mentoring, pilot programs, and enhanced research infrastructure we seek to promote investigator competitiveness in acquiring extramural funding to address regional disease disparities. We also seek to generate an environment that creates pipelines for undergraduate and graduate students into biomedical careers and serves as a major point of entry for Hispanics and other underrepresented minorities into the nation’s biomedical workforce. These outcomes will be obtained through the achievement of five specific objectives which are to: (1) Contribute, to cancer research through innovative (a) basic; (b) behavioral; or (c) clinical studies within our geographically isolated and underserved Mexican American population. Increased emphasis on epidemiology and collaborations with clinical and public health specialists is within the context of the University’s mission to address the broader scope of pressing health problems in its service population. (2) Strengthen research infrastructure and, thereby, capabilities of BBRC investigators through (a) enhancement of extant multi-user core facilities for research related to proteins, DNA, cell culture, biorepository, biostatistics and bioinformatics; (3) Recruit experienced faculty members to address cancer health issues; (4) Facilitate the professional development and mentoring of BBRC investigators, including postdocs via (a) training/education, (b) pilot grant programs focusing on our cancer project themes, and through interdisciplinary research, address important health disparity issues and (5), Promote meaningful community partnerships to engage and recruit participants for research studies and augment outreach and dissemination efforts, through community events, discussions, seminars, and international symposia for our scientific professionals to share findings and best practices. Included in infrastructure enhancement are physical plant components that support research, an administrative core to carry out coordination, management and governance of program components, an evaluative component to ensure programmatic and border health objectives are achieved, and ultimately the development of new approaches to reduce cancer health disparities in our underrepresented population.

总结 德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索分校（UTEP）通过少数族裔机构的研究中心的支持 （RCMI）创建了边境生物医学研究中心（BBRC），以解决西班牙裔健康问题 我们称之为边界的远西得克萨斯州地区独有的差异。在此提案中，UTEP已经开发了 由区域学术，医学和社区的专家组成的广泛合作者干部 旨在解决渗透到我们多数墨西哥裔美国人的癌症健康分布的目标 人口。当与墨西哥的姊妹城市华雷斯城市结合在一起时，我们代表了最大的二进制文件 世界上有近300万人的社区。该应用程序的总体目标是发展，成长和 维持BBRC的广泛基础设施和计划，以及招募，培训和发展癌症 科学家和健康从业人员促进高质量的癌症研究并翻译有意义的发现 回到社区。通过心理，试点计划和增强研究基础设施，我们寻求 促进研究者在获得壁外资金方面的竞争力来解决区域疾病分布。 我们还寻求生成一个为本科生和研究生创建管道的环境 生物医学职业是西班牙裔和其他代表性不足的少数群体的主要入境点 美国的生物医学劳动力。这些结果将通过实现五个特定的 要：（1）通过创新（a）基本的目标为癌症研究做出贡献的目标； （b）行为；或（c） 我们在地理上孤立和服务不足的墨西哥裔美国人中的临床研究。增加 强调流行病学以及与临床和公共卫生专家的合作 该大学的使命是解决在服务人群中紧迫健康问题的更广泛范围。 （2） 加强研究基础设施，从而通过（a）增强BBRC研究者的能力 现有的多用户核心设施，用于与蛋白质，DNA，细胞培养，生物疗法，生物统计学和生物统计学有关的研究 生物信息学； （3）招募经验丰富的教职员工来解决癌症健康问题； （4）促进 BBRC调查人员的专业发展和心理化，包括（a）培训/教育的博士后， （b）针对我们癌症项目主题的试点赠款计划，并通过跨学科研究解决 重要的健康差异问题和（5），促进有意义的社区伙伴关系以参与和招聘 通过社区活动，研究研究和增强宣传和传播工作的参与者 讨论，半小伙和国际研讨会供我们的科学专业人员分享发现和最佳 实践。基础设施增强中包括的是支持研究的物理植物成分，这是 行政核心进行计划组件的协调，管理和治理，这是一个 确保实现程序化和边境健康目标的评估组成部分，并最终 开发新方法，以减少我们代表性不足的人群中的癌症健康分布。
