DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a proposal for a Mid-career Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research in Cardiovascular Disparities (K24). The candidate is Lisa A. Cooper, MD, MPH, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and a core faculty member in the Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology, & Clinical Research. Dr. Cooper also holds joint appointments in the Departments of Epidemiology and Health Policy & Management at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Dr. Cooper has conducted cutting-edge patient-oriented research regarding healthcare disparities and patient-physician relationships over the past 10 years. Her work explores barriers and mechanisms for disparities and tests interventions to eliminate them. Her two current federally funded intervention trials are designed to increase physicians' patient-centeredness and cultural competence and to activate minority patients to participate in their health care. As a mid-career scientist engaged in patient-oriented research, she needs dedicated time to amplify her scientific program and serve as mentor for the increasing number of trainees and junior faculty who seek her expertise in cardiovascular disease disparities research. Dr.Cooper's specific aims for this proposal are: 1) to build a multi-disciplinary center devoted to patient-oriented research in cardiovascular health disparities at Johns Hopkins; 2) to recruit and mentor junior clinician investigators in the conduct of rigorous patient-oriented cardiovascular health disparities research; and 3) to develop and test novel methods of measuring racial and ethnic discrimination and its impact on cardiovascular healthcare and outcomes. Dr. Cooper's research program will be supported by the strong epidemiology and biostatistics resources available in the Welch Center and the strong research infrastructure at Johns Hopkins. Dr. Cooper's work links patient and clinician attitudes and behaviors with health outcomes and continues to inform the training of physicians and the transformation of health system programs to deliver high-quality, equitable care to an increasingly diverse patient population. This K24 Award will greatly increase the likelihood of continued success in Dr. Cooper's research program and the careers of a future generation of patient-oriented researchers in cardiovascular health disparities.

描述（由申请人提供）： 这是一项关于以患者为导向的心血管研究中职业生涯研究者奖的提案 差异（K24）。该候选人是丽莎·A·库珀 (Lisa A. Cooper)，医学博士、公共卫生硕士、约翰·霍普金斯大学医学院医学副教授，也是韦尔奇预防、流行病学和临床研究中心的核心教员。库珀博士还在约翰·霍普金斯大学彭博公共卫生学院流行病学系和卫生政策与管理系担任联合职务。过去 10 年来，库珀博士针对医疗保健差异和医患关系开展了以患者为导向的前沿研究。她的工作探索了差异的障碍和机制，并测试了消除这些障碍的干预措施。她目前进行的两项联邦资助的干预试验旨在提高医生以患者为中心的态度和文化能力，并激励少数族裔患者参与医疗保健。作为一名从事以患者为导向的研究的职业中期科学家，她需要专门的时间来扩大她的科学计划，并为越来越多寻求她在心血管疾病差异研究方面的专业知识的学员和初级教师担任导师。库珀博士对此提案的具体目标是：1）在约翰·霍普金斯大学建立一个多学科中心，致力于以患者为导向的心血管健康差异研究； 2) 招募和指导初级临床研究人员进行严格的以患者为导向的心血管健康差异研究； 3) 开发和测试衡量种族和民族歧视及其对心血管保健和结果影响的新方法。库珀博士的研究计划将得到韦尔奇中心强大的流行病学和生物统计学资源以及约翰霍普金斯大学强大的研究基础设施的支持。库珀博士的工作将患者和临床医生的态度和行为与健康结果联系起来，并继续为医生培训和卫生系统项目转型提供信息，以便为日益多样化的患者群体提供高质量、公平的护理。该 K24 奖将大大增加库珀博士的研究计划以及下一代以患者为中心的心血管健康差异研究人员的职业生涯继续取得成功的可能性。 （摘要完）
