The regions served by the Howard University Cancer Center (HUCC) and Johns Hopkins Comprehensive Cancer Center (JHCCC), Maryland and the District of Columbia, have had among the highest cancer death rates in the United States for more than fifty years. Minority residents of these regions have been disproportionately affected by cancer, and cancer has become a leading cause of morbidity and mortality for African-Americans in both Baltimore, Maryland, and Washington, D.C. To address this problem, HUCC and JHCCC have embarked on a partnership to increase productive research in screening, diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and supportive care as it relates to cancer, with a special focus on cancer in African-Americans. The HUCC/JHCCC partnership, which began as a series of collaborative efforts involving faculty from each institution organized into groups targeting high priority areas, has been supported since September of 1999 by supplemental funds for the JHCCC core grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The successes realized thus far during the planning phases of the HUCC/JHCCC partnership, with collaborative research progress in several areas, including prostate cancer, gastrointestinal cancers, and breast cancer, has promoted the submission of this grant in an attempt to secure funds to further augment partnership activities. The major aim of this grant proposal is to continue the development of a sustainable partnership between HUCC and JHCCC that enhances the research, training, education, and outreach missions of both institutions. To accomplish this goal, the HUCC/JHCCC partnership will work to build the research faculty and scientific programs at HUCC directed at cancer in African-Americans, to enhance population-based cancer studies at JHCCC involving African-Americans, to increase opportunities for research training and career development of African- American cancer researchers at HUCC, and to improve proposal seeks support for 3 research projects, 2 pilot research projects, 1 pilot educational program, and core infrastructure at HUCC, along with additional funds for further planning and development of the HUCC/JHCCC partnership. Over the last 5 years of support requested for the HUCC/JHCCC partnership, as these initial research and educational activities progress to complete for independent funding, new programs, and resources of high priority for development will be identified and supported.

霍华德大学癌症中心（HUCC）和约翰·霍普金斯综合癌症中心（JHCCC），马里兰州和哥伦比亚特区服务的地区在美国癌症死亡率最高了五十年以上。 Minority residents of these regions have been disproportionately affected by cancer, and cancer has become a leading cause of morbidity and mortality for African-Americans in both Baltimore, Maryland, and Washington, D.C. To address this problem, HUCC and JHCCC have embarked on a partnership to increase productive research in screening, diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and supportive care as it relates to cancer, with a special focus on cancer in非裔美国人。 HUCC/JHCCC合作伙伴关系最初是在一系列涉及每个机构的教职员工的合作努力中，该组织成立于针对高优先级领域的团体，自1999年9月以来，由国家癌症研究所（NCI）的JHCCC核心补助金得到支持。到目前为止，在HUCC/JHCCC合作伙伴关系的计划阶段取得的成功，在包括前列腺癌，胃肠道癌和乳腺癌在内的多个领域进行了协作研究进展，已促进了该赠款的提交，以试图确保资金获得进一步增强伙伴活动的资金。该赠款提案的主要目的是继续建立HUCC和JHCCC之间可持续合作伙伴关系，从而增强了这两个机构的研究，培训，教育和外展任务。为了实现这一目标，HUCC/JHCCC伙伴关系将致力于在非裔美国人针对癌症的HUCC建立研究教师和科学计划，以增强非裔美国人的JHCCC的基于人群的癌症研究，以增加涉及非裔美国人的研究培训的机会，以提高研究培训和提高HUCC的非裔美国癌症研究计划，并寻求3个研究PIRONTICENTION PLESINATION INTERCONITION，并寻求3个PIL启发PIT PIL，2 PIL，2 PIL，2 PIL，2 PIL，2 HUCC的基础设施，以及额外的资金，用于进一步计划和开发HUCC/JHCCC合作伙伴关系。在过去的5年中，要求HUCC/JHCCC合作伙伴关系，因为这些最初的研究和教育活动将在独立资金，新计划和高优先级的开发资源方面完成，并得到确定和支持。
