项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY The University of Chicago and Rush University Medical Center both have well-developed infrastructures for health disparities research that support a number of established investigators with diverse areas of expertise. Both institutions also have longstanding partnerships with a multitude of key community organizations in their respective geographic locations on Chicago’s West and South sides. The Investigator Development Core for the Chicago Chronic Condition Equity Network (C3EN) seeks to leverage these strengths to expand and cultivate the regional network of health disparities researchers in the greater Chicago region. The Core has three aims. Aim 1 is to manage a Research Project Pilot Grant program that funds compelling pilot studies from a diverse group of early stage health disparities researchers. Funding priority will go to proposals for pilot studies that inform novel interventions to reduce chronic disease disparities, that include intersectoral work that features collaborations with community partners in non-health sectors, and that come from investigators with underrepresented backgrounds. Aim 2 is to award “mini-grants” to support important, time-limited activities that strengthen an academic-community collaboration prior to and following the conduct of a research study. These activities help identify priorities for collaboration, inform the design of a research project, and help to demonstrate the researcher’s commitment to the partnership. Aim 3 is to provide early stage grantees with unique resources and support as they conduct their pilot project, publish their work, and prepare funding proposals that build on their preliminary data. Both during and after their pilot project, grantees will have access to a formal mentorship program; ongoing methodological support in biostatistics, data science, and intersectoral action for health; and regular engagement in research progress meetings and seminar series. We will track and adapt our approach based on meaningful performance metrics that capture our Core’s ability to inspire and support innovative pilot projects that catalyze the careers of the next generation of health disparities researchers in the greater Chicago region.

项目概要芝加哥大学和拉什大学医学中心都拥有发达的基础设施健康差异研究为许多具有不同专业领域的知名研究人员提供支持。两家机构还与各自领域的众多重要社区组织建立了长期合作伙伴关系。芝加哥西侧和南侧各自的地理位置。芝加哥慢性病股权网络 (C3EN) 寻求利用这些优势来扩大和培育大芝加哥地区健康差异研究人员的区域网络有三个目标。目标 1 是管理一项研究项目试点资助计划，该计划资助来自不同领域的引人注目的试点研究早期健康差异研究人员小组将优先资助试点研究提案。为减少慢性病差异的新干预措施提供信息，其中包括以与非卫生部门的社区合作伙伴的合作，这些合作来自于调查人员目标 2 是奖励“小额赠款”，以支持重要的、有时间限制的活动，在进行研究之前和之后加强学术界合作。活动有助于确定合作的优先事项，为研究项目的设计提供信息，并帮助证明研究人员对合作伙伴关系的承诺是为早期受资助者提供独特的资源。并支持他们开展试点项目、发布工作并准备基于在试点项目期间和之后，受资助者都可以获得正式的指导。计划；生物统计学、数据科学和跨部门卫生行动方面的持续方法支持；我们将定期参加研究进展会议和研讨会系列。基于有意义的绩效指标，这些指标体现了我们的核心激发和支持创新试点的能力促进大芝加哥地区下一代健康差异研究人员职业生涯的项目地区。
