In recognition of the need to create more institutions that have competitive research programs, to recruit more underrepresented individuals into cancer research, and to increase the attention to cancer health disparities research, we propose to expand the collaboration between New Mexico State University (NMSU) and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC). Three objectives will help us achieve our overall goal. First, we will increase the capacity of NMSU to conduct competitive research. This will be done through a collection of three basic science pilot projects and one basic science full project. Second, we will create a long-standing partnership in cancer research training and education. Our full undergraduate project proposal builds on a successful internship program between NMSU and FHCRC. Our graduate pilot project paves the way to reciprocal training of graduate students. Finally, an outreach proposal seeks to evaluate a way to bring public health intervention to communities suffering from cancer health disparities. The outreach proposal will test the efficacy of the promotora approach in fostering cervical cancer screening behavior change. A well established and rigorous review process will be used to identify additional collaborative projects in later years. An effort to expand outreach efforts in the state will also be developed based on a new faculty hire and an existing network of Cooperative Extension Service offices. Both institutions are enthusiastic about this collaboration and have worked steadily to increase the partnership strength. Mutual benefits will accrue to both institutions. NMSU has a majority of minority and underrepresented students, but not the expertise and experience to recruit and train students in cancer research. A major benefit of this grant will be to establish an infrastructure whereby underrepresented students have opportunities and resources to become cancer researchers. The FHCRC is deeply committed to increasing the number of minority and underrepresented group members involved in cancer research. Collaboration with scientists at NMSU also provides opportunities for new types of research that are of interest to FHCRC scientists. The five pilot projects and two full projects proposed in the developmental core are accompanied by three other cores: Administrative Core, Mentoring Core, and Planning and Evaluation Core. In addition, sound career development approaches will train future cancer researchers.

为了认识到需要创建更多具有竞争性研究计划的机构，招募更多代表性的人参与癌症研究，并增加对癌症健康差异研究的关注，我们建议扩大新墨西哥州立大学（NMSU）和Fred Hutchinson癌症研究中心（FHCRC）之间的合作。三个目标将帮助我们实现我们的整体目标。首先，我们将提高NMSU进行竞争性研究的能力。这将通过三个基础科学试验项目和一个基础科学完整项目来完成。其次，我们将在癌症研究培训和教育方面建立长期的合作伙伴关系。我们的完整的本科项目提案建立在NMSU和FHCRC之间的成功实习计划的基础上。我们的研究生飞行员项目为研究生的相互培训铺平了道路。最后，一项宣传提案试图评估一种将公共卫生干预措施带给患有癌症健康差异的社区的方法。宣传建议将测试促销方法在促进宫颈癌筛查行为变化方面的功效。良好且严格的审核过程将用于确定后来几年的其他协作项目。还将根据新的教职员工和现有合作推广服务办公室网络开发扩大该州的外展工作的努力。 这两个机构都对这项合作充满热情，并稳定地努力提高伙伴关系的实力。相互利益将带来两个机构。 NMSU拥有大多数少数族裔和代表性不足的学生，但没有招募和培训学生从事癌症研究的专业知识和经验。这笔赠款的主要好处是建立一个基础设施，在该基础设施中，代表性不足的学生有机会和资源成为癌症研究人员。 FHCRC非常致力于增加参与癌症研究的少数群体和代表性不足的小组成员的数量。与NMSU科学家的合作还为FHCRC科学家感兴趣的新型研究提供了机会。发展核心中提出的五个试点项目和两个完整的项目还伴随着其他三个核心：行政核心，指导核心以及计划和评估核心。此外，合理的职业发展方法将培训未来的癌症研究人员。
