Over the next five years, the Research Education and Training Core (RET) will address the above overall specific aim by coordinating the efforts of both programs, the educational programs of Project EXPORT and those of the CRMH, to develop a seamless research education and training model starting at the kindergarten level and continuing through postgraduate training. This effort is highly responsive to several recommendations made at the recent 2006 Cancer Disparities Summit sponsored by the National Cancer Institute. The Center for Research on Minority Health and Project EXPORT have developed the PIPELINE Scientific Training Program - Linking Training from Elementary School to Graduate Programs, aimed at: 1) increasing the number of minorities pursuing careers in science and health disparities research; 2) developing of a health disparities core curriculum that increases awareness of health disparities and relevant issues; and 3) developing health disparities as a rigorous, unique and distinct discipline with member institutions of the HDEART Consortium. Importantly, one of the recommendations of the External Scientific Advisory Committee of Project EXPORT recommended that the CRMH integrate and centralize its ongoing minority health and health disparities educational and training program under one administrative core, thus allowing CRMH programs and PEACE, along others within M. D. Anderson to benefit from the full spectrum of all of the multiple core activities and expertise. The official integration and centralization of all of the education programs focusing on increasing the number of minorities entering health careers, like those in research and community outreach activities, will allow us to officially take the step to bring all of our funded, (public and private) programs under the coordination of one multifaceted education and training core. The RET Core will address the need to increase recruitment and training minorities in biomedical research and health professions through its student development programs focusing primarily on the relationship between environmental health and chronic diseases. The PEACE RET will help in providing coordinating and infrastructure to maintain and expand the educational and outreach activities within the CRMH, including the SCIENCE Program, HDEART and those high school programs funded by ExxonMobil Foundation and the Houston Endowment, Inc. In addition, during the past academic year a partnership was established between Burton Elementary School and Hightower High School (Medical Science Academy Magnet) in the Fort Bend Independent School District (FBISD) and the CRMH to support science education for students and teachers. High school students from Hightower, participating as student aides, have begun to serve as mentors at Burton Elementary. They have also taught science to both kindergarten and 1st grade classes.

在接下来的五年中，研究教育和培训核心（RET）将通过协调两个计划，项目出口和CRMH的教育计划的努力来解决上述特定目标，以开发从幼儿园水平开始并通过后培训开始的无缝研究教育和培训模型。这项工作对在美国国家癌症研究所（National Cancer Institute）赞助的2006年癌症差异峰会上提出的几项建议非常有反应。少数民族健康与项目出口研究中心已经制定了管道科学培训计划 - 将小学的培训与研究生课程联系起来，目的是：1）增加从事科学和健康差异研究领域的少数民族数量； 2）发展健康差异核心课程，以提高对健康差异和相关问题的认识； 3）与HDEART财团的成员机构一起发展健康差异是一种严格，独特和独特的纪律。 重要的是，项目出口的外部科学咨询委员会的建议之一建议，CRMH在一个行政核心下整合并集中了其持续的少数民族健康和健康差异教育和培训计划，从而使CRMH计划与和平允许M. D. Anderson内部的其他核心及其和平，从而使M. D. Anderson内部受益于所有多个核心活动和专业知识的全部范围。所有的教育计划的官方整合和集中化，重点是增加从事研究和社区外展活动的少数民族的数量，将使我们能够正式采取步骤，以一项多方面的教育和培训核心协调下，将所有资助的（公共和私人）计划带入。 RET核心将通过其学生发展计划主要关注环境健康与慢性病之间的关系，以增加生物医学研究和卫生专业领域的招聘和培训少数群体的需求。和平RET将有助于提供协调和基础架构，以维持和扩展CRMH内的教育和外展活动，包括科学计划，HDEART和由埃克森美孚基金会和休斯顿Endowment，Inc。资助的那些高中计划。此外，在过去的学年中，在过去的学年和Highter School School School and Highter Schoolsions（Burton Hightary Maint Maint Maint Maint Interney Interney Interney in Medical Schooly Interney in Medical Schooly of Schooly of Schooly of Schooly of）（ CRMH支持学生和老师的科学教育。来自Hightower的高中生（作为学生助手参加）已开始担任Burton Elementary的导师。他们还向幼儿园和一年级班级教授科学。
