Overall – Abstract In response to RFA-MD-21-007, we propose the Rutgers-NYU Center for Asian Health Promotion and Equity (CAHPE) to advance interdisciplinary research on comorbid cardiometabolic disease and mental health of Asian adults. There are currently significant disparities in relationship to Heart and Mind, with lower thresholds for BMI for Asians and disproportionate disparities related to cardiometabolic disease and mental health. Such an important focus in research, population and investigators will inform both practice and policy at community, regional and national levels. Asians are the fastest growing yet most understudied US minority group at 23 million people and growing 26% from 2010-2019. Yet, < 1% of NIH research funding in the last 10 years were focused on US Asian populations. Moreover, this population experiences the “Asian Paradox”: while on average, US Asians, are the highest-income earners and the most highly educated, more Asians, especially older adults, live below the poverty line, are less likely to participate in biomedical research, and suffer disproportional health disparities compared to white Americans. These health inequities are further complicated by the heterogeneity of these immigrant populations, especially with respect to culture, religion, language, sexual identity, and trauma exposure, many of which challenge our assumptions about the “model minority” stereotype. Building on two decades of rigorous aging research in minority populations and track records of successful academic achievements, we have leveraged strong existing transdisciplinary partnerships across multiple academic and community institutions to build a center designed to foster the next generation of diverse researchers in a nurturing environment that is conducive to success and promotes highly relevant and rigorous translational research on cardiometabolic and mental health outcomes among US Asians. With strong institutional support of $3 million in matching funds, our Center will have five inter-connected aims: 1) Provide leadership, organizational communication, and evaluation systems designed to achieve the overarching goals of supporting high quality and enduring inter-disciplinary research on cardiometabolic and mental health outcomes among Asian adults; 2) Guide solicitation and selection of 6 pilot studies per year; 3) Implement the three interdisciplinary, translational, and synergistic R01-like projects with specific focus on: Nutritional, Positive Affect, and Dementia Caregiving Interventions to multi-prong target diverse Asian population at high risk; 4) Enhance, track, and evaluate existing infrastructure to support and synchronize the pilot and center projects; and 5) Disseminate these findings to the local, regional, and national levels in order to inform the design of future prevention/intervention research commodities. The overall aims of this application reflect the synergistic work of the Administrative Core (AC), Investigator Development Core (IDC), Community Engagement Core (CEC), and research projects.

总体 - 抽象 为了响应RFA-MD-21-007，我们提出了Rutgers-NYU亚洲健康促进与公平中心 （CAHPE）推进有关合并性心脏代谢疾病和亚洲心理健康的跨学科研究 成年人。目前与心灵的关系存在很大的差异，BMI的阈值较低 对于亚洲人和与心脏代谢疾病和心理健康有关的不成比例差异。这样的 研究，人口和研究人员的重要重点将为社区的实践和政策提供信息， 区域和国家一级。亚洲人是增长最快，但最了解美国少数民族的2300万 人们从2010年至2019年增长了26％。然而，在过去10年中，NIH研究资金的<1％是集中的 在我们亚洲人口上。此外，这个人口经历了“亚洲悖论”：平均而言，我们 亚洲人是收入最高的人，受过最高教育的亚洲人，更多的亚洲人，尤其是老年人 在贫困线以下，参与生物医学研究的可能性较小，并且遭受不利的健康状况 与白人美国人相比差异。这些健康不平等因异质性而更加复杂 在这些移民人口中，特别是关于文化，宗教，语言，性认同和创伤 暴露，其中许多挑战了我们对“少数派”刻板印象的假设。 建立在少数族裔人口的二十年严格衰老研究的基础上 成功的学术成就，我们利用了跨越现有的跨学科伙伴关系 多个学术和社区机构建立一个旨在促进下一代潜水员的中心 在养育环境中的研究人员，该环境是为成功的导电，并促进了高度相关和严格的 美国亚洲人中有关心脏代谢和心理健康成果的转化研究。坚强 机构支持300万美元的匹配资金，我们的中心将有五个相互联系的目标：1） 提供旨在实现总体的领导力，组织沟通和评估系统 支持高质量和持久有关心脏代谢和心理健康的跨学科研究的目标 亚洲成年人的结果； 2）每年指导和选择6个试点研究； 3）实施 三个跨学科，翻译和协同R01式项目具有特定的重点：营养，积极 情感和痴呆症护理干预措施对高风险的多个统一目标亚洲人口； 4） 增强，跟踪和评估现有的基础设施，以支持和同步飞行员和中心项目； 5）将这些发现传播给地方，区域和国家一级，以告知未来的设计 预防/干预研究商品。该应用程序的总体目的反映了 行政核心（AC），研究人员发展核心（IDC），社区参与核心（CEC）和 研究项目。
