DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The Center to Advance Cognitive Health and Healthcare in Older Latinos is a new Resource Center for Minority Aging Research at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis RCMAR). The UC Davis RCMAR addresses an important public health problem (cognitive health and impairment) in a demographically significant and historically under-served population (Latinos) that suffers from compelling evidence of disparities. The UC Davis RCMAR represents collaboration between the UC Davis School of Medicine and Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing. The Center's mission is to reduce disparities related to cognitive health and healthcare in Latinos through a well-integrated, interdisciplinary, and inter-professional mentoring program that will diversity the research workforce. In addition, through the creation of a network of community agencies, healthcare leaders and regional academic institution, the Center will advance cognitive health and healthcare for Latinos in California's Central Valley who suffer dramatic health disparities. The Center's four Cores (Administrative, Investigator Development, Community Liaison, and Analysis) will work in an integrated and cohesive fashion to accomplish our aims. The overall specific aims of the application are to 1) enhance the capacity, size, and diversity of the research workforce and promote careers in minority aging research by strategic outreach, sustained mentoring, and pilot grants to RCMAR Scholars, 2) increase knowledge in cognitive health and impairment for older Latinos through interdisciplinary research and training in measurement, mechanisms, and interventions, 3) advance the science of recruitment and retention of older Latinos related to cognitive health and related healthcare services, and 4) improve health and reduce disparities for Latinos in California's central valley through community engagement, community-oriented research, and dissemination to older Latinos and their families and providers serving Latino communities. The proposed RCMAR will benefit from significant resources at UC Davis, including an NIH-funded Clinical Translational Science Center and Alzheimer's Disease Center.

描述（由申请人提供）推进旧拉丁裔认知健康和医疗保健中心是加利福尼亚大学戴维斯分校（UC Davis RCMAR）的新资源中心。加州大学戴维斯分校的RCMAR在人口统计学意义和历史悠久的人口（拉丁裔）中解决了一个重要的公共卫生问题（认知健康和损害），该问题具有令人信服的差异证据。加州大学戴维斯分校的加州大学RCMAR代表加州大学戴维斯分校医学院与贝蒂·艾琳·摩尔护理学院之间的合作。该中心的使命是通过一项良好的整合，跨学科和跨专业的指导计划来减少拉丁美洲人在拉丁美洲人的认知健康和医疗保健相关的差异，这将使研究人员多样化。此外，通过建立社区机构，医疗保健领导者和地区学术机构的网络，该中心将在加利福尼亚州中央山谷的拉丁美洲人的认知健康和医疗保健中，遭受巨大的健康差异。该中心的四个核心（行政，调查员发展，社区联络和分析）将以综合而有凝聚力的方式工作，以实现我们的目标。应用程序的总体具体目的是1）提高研究劳动力的能力，规模和多样性，并通过战略外展，持续的指导，持续的指导以及对RCMAR学者的促进少数族裔衰老研究的职业，2）增加对认知健康的知识，并通过较早的拉丁裔培训来提高与较早的拉丁裔的认知健康和损害，并培训较早的研究和培训，并培训较早的招聘，并培训3.与认知健康和相关医疗服务有关的拉丁美洲人，以及4）通过社区参与，面向社区的研究以及向拉丁美洲裔及其较老的拉丁裔及其家人及其为拉丁裔社区服务的老年人和提供者传播，改善了加利福尼亚中部山谷中拉丁美洲人的健康差异。拟议的RCMAR将从加州大学戴维斯分校的大量资源中受益，其中包括NIH资助的临床转化科学中心和阿尔茨海默氏病中心。
