The overall aims of the UIC Center of Excellence in Eliminating Disparities (CEED) are to: Aim 1: Become a university-wide crucial resource for minority health and health disparities research; Aim 2: Enhance training of faculty and students engaged in minority health and health disparities research; Aim 3: Develop and conduct leading-edge research on health disparities; Aim 4: Disseminate effective strategies for improving minority health and health disparities in community settings; and Aim 5: Develop, maintain and sustain key university-community partnerships. We will accomplish these aims through four cores, two research projects, and one dissemination project. The function of the Administrative Core is to oversee activities to successfully achieve the CEED's aims and support the Research, Training, and Community Core aims. The Research Core will coordinate ongoing research and develop new minority health and health disparities research within the CEED and encourage participation from faculty across disciplines. The Research Training and Education Core will expand and coalesce the diverse training activities at UIC to provide conceptual and methodological information of specific relevance to the conduct of health disparities research to qualified students, faculty, and community partners. The Community Engagement and Outreach Core will facilitate university-community partnerships, with the ultimate goal of improved minority health and reduced health disparities in Chicago. The aims of the 2 research projects are: Study 1: To develop a model of disparities in mortality from prostate and colorectal cancer in the Chicago metropolitan area to conduct a population-based analysis of potential clinical, social, and healthcare-related mechanisms for the mortality disparities; Study 2: To identify the barriers contributing to the racial/socioeconomic disparities in colorectal cancer treatment care continuum. The Community Core includes a specific dissemination project aimed at reducing breast cancer mortality. With very strong institutional commitment, stellar leadership, integrating the full complement of our 6 health sciences programs, we aim fora comprehensive strategy incorporating research, education, policy changes, and community partnerships to reduce health disparities in Chicago and Illinois.

UIC卓越中心消除差异的总体目标（CEED）是：目标1：成为一个 大学范围内的少数民族健康与健康差异研究的关键资源；目标2：增强训练 从事少数民族健康和健康差异研究的教职员工；目标3：发展和 进行健康差异的领先研究；目标4：传播改进的有效策略 社区环境中的少数族裔健康和健康差异；目标5：开发，维护和维持关键 大学社区合作伙伴关系。我们将通过四个核心，两个研究项目实现这些目标， 和一个传播项目。行政核心的功能是监督活动以成功 实现CEED的目标并支持研究，培训和社区核心目标。研究 核心将协调正在进行的研究，并在内部发展新的少数民族健康和健康差异研究 跨学科的教师参与的ceed和鼓励。研究培训和教育 核心将扩大和融合UIC的各种培训活动，以提供概念和 与合格的健康差异研究的特定相关性的方法论信息 学生，教职员工和社区合作伙伴。社区参与和宣传核心将有助于 大学社区合作伙伴关系，其最终目标是改善少数民族健康并降低健康状况 芝加哥的差异。这两个研究项目的目的是：研究1：建立一个差异模型 芝加哥大都会区的前列腺和结直肠癌的死亡率进行基于人群的死亡率 分析潜在的临床，社会和医疗保健相关机制的死亡率差异；研究2： 确定有助于结直肠癌治疗中种族/社会经济差异的障碍 连续。社区核心包括一个旨在减少乳腺癌的特定传播项目 死亡。凭借非常强大的机构承诺，出色的领导，整合了我们的完整补充 6个健康科学计划，我们将旨在纳入研究，教育，政策的全面战略 变化以及社区伙伴关系，以减少芝加哥和伊利诺伊州的健康差异。
