DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We seek to reduce disparities in cardiovascular health by recruiting a molecular cardiologist to the John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) in order to enhance capacity to conduct research in partnership with Asian, Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander communities. Phase I (Years 1 & 2) will involve the establishment of an External Advisory Committee (EAC) and an Internal Advisory and Selection Committee (IASC) to oversee recruitment of an experienced research scientist to JABSOM. To achieve the specific aim of recruiting a highly qualified candidate, Phase I activities will include interaction with the IASC, EAC, and focus groups that will guide an active search for a renowned cardiovascular scientist. Phase II (Years 3-7) will establish a community-based research and education program with the recruited scientist as principal investigator. During Phase II, two specific aims will be accomplished, namely, to conduct state-of-the-art research related to disparities in cardiovascular health, and to develop an educational program that will increase the cadre of investigators dedicated to such research. To achieve these aims, we propose collaboration with the community (including Community Health Centers and Research Clinics, public and private sector research programs, and the Department of Health), mentoring of minority investigators, planning and implementation of pilot projects conceived by junior faculty, and development of educational activities designed to augment graduate research training at the University of Hawai'i (UH). Educational activities will include implementation of a Cardiology Fellowship Program and formulation of educational exchanges and seminars as well as intensive laboratory training for junior faculty. These research collaborations and educational activities will serve as a basis for rapid integration of the new scientist's independent research into the expanding health disparities research network in Hawai'i. Achieving these objectives will increase opportunities for UH-affiliated researchers to address health disparities, particularly in Asian, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander populations that demonstrate high rates of cardiovascular disease and related risk factors. Recruiting a cardiovascular scientist to UH will enhance the research capacity of the institution and the community, improve the quality of biomedical education and training, lead to collaborative relationships between existing research programs as well as to the development of innovative new programs, and increase the quality and quantity of community-based research efforts designed to address health disparities in the State of Hawai'i.

描述（由申请人提供）： 我们寻求通过在约翰·A·伯恩斯医学院 (JABSOM) 招募一名分子心脏病学家来减少心血管健康方面的差异，以增强与亚洲人、夏威夷原住民和其他太平洋岛民社区合作开展研究的能力。 第一阶段（第一年和第二年）将涉及建立外部咨询委员会 (EAC) 和内部咨询和选拔委员会 (IASC)，以监督 JABSOM 招聘经验丰富的研究科学家。为了实现招募高素质候选人的具体目标，第一阶段的活动将包括与 IASC、EAC 和焦点小组的互动，以指导积极寻找著名的心血管科学家。 第二阶段（第 3-7 年）将建立一个以社区为基础的研究和教育计划，并由招募的科学家作为首席研究员。 在第二阶段，将实现两个具体目标，即进行与心血管健康差异相关的最先进的研究，并制定一项教育计划，以增加致力于此类研究的研究人员队伍。 为了实现这些目标，我们建议与社区（包括社区健康中心和研究诊所、公共和私营部门研究计划以及卫生部）合作，指导少数族裔研究人员，规划和实施由初级教师设想的试点项目，开展旨在增强夏威夷大学 (UH) 研究生研究培训的教育活动。 教育活动将包括实施心脏病学奖学金计划、制定教育交流和研讨会以及针对初级教师的强化实验室培训。 这些研究合作和教育活动将为新科学家的独立研究快速融入夏威夷不断扩大的健康差异研究网络奠定基础。 实现这些目标将为夏威夷大学附属研究人员增加解决健康差异的机会，特别是在亚洲、夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民群体中，这些群体心血管疾病和相关危险因素的发病率很高。 招募一名心血管科学家到夏威夷大学将增强该机构和社区的研究能力，提高生物医学教育和培训的质量，促进现有研究项目之间的合作关系以及创新项目的开发，并提高质量旨在解决夏威夷州健康差异的社区研究工作的数量和数量。
