项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal aims to improve the translational and community-based HPV-associated cancer research, education, and training at Howard University through collaborative projects and an effective long-term partnership with Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center. Human papillomavirus (HPV) accounts for 5.2% of cancer cases worldwide. Several strains of HPV cause a variety of devastating reproductive and oropharyngeal cancers. In the United States, about 26,700 cases of HPV-associated cancers are diagnosed annually. African American women suffer from a significantly higher incidence rate of HPV-associated cervical, vaginal, and anal cancers compared to their Caucasian counterparts. Additionally, HPV-16 has been identified in approximately 20-30% of head and neck cancers and roughly 56% of oropharynx and oral cavity cancers. Howard University Medical Institutions have a historically Black student body, and its medical and dental facilities participate in direct service to minority populations. However, Howard University faces significant challenges in cancer research and health disparities efforts. Johns Hopkins is committed to providing mentorship and educational resources in cancer research to improve Howard's capacities. Howard is a leading minority-serving institution, while Johns Hopkins is a well-established NCI-designated Cancer Center. An educational effort that brings together Howard doctors and dentists who focus on minorities and Johns Hopkins researchers who study HPV-related cancers will help to address socioeconomic disparities and barriers to cancer health, health education, and health-related professions. Through a set of collaborative pilot projects that include HPV vaccine development in mice models, epidemiology research in a Washington D.C. community cohort, and an extensive mentoring network between the two universities, this collaboration will significantly enhance career development, education, and competitiveness in seeking funding opportunities for Howard students and educators. Specific aims will be: 1) to support collaborative cancer research projects between the Howard University Medical Institutions and the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins; 2) to provide collaborative training and mentoring programs for promoting Howard medical and dental students and faculty in cancer research, 3) to establish education programs that advance the knowledge of cancer research as it applies to etiology, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of HPV-associated cancer in the context of minority-serving institutions.

描述（由应用程序提供）：该提案旨在通过合作项目和与Johns Hopkins医疗机构Sidney Kimmel综合癌症中心通过合作项目以及有效的长期合作伙伴关系来改善霍华德大学在霍华德大学的癌症研究，教育和培训的癌症研究，教育和培训。人类乳头瘤病毒（HPV）占全球癌症病例的5.2％。几种HPV菌株会引起各种毁灭性的生殖和口咽癌。在美国，每年诊断出约26,700例HPV相关癌症病例。与高加索同类产品相比，非裔美国妇女患HPV相关的宫颈，阴道和肛门癌的发病率明显更高。此外，在大约20-30％的头颈癌中鉴定了HPV-16，大约56％的口咽和口腔癌。霍华德大学医学机构拥有历史悠久的黑人学生团体，其医疗和牙科设施参与直接服务少数群体。但是，霍华德大学在癌症研究和健康差异方面面临重大挑战。约翰·霍普金斯（Johns Hopkins）致力于在癌症研究中提供精通和教育资源，以提高霍华德的能力。霍华德（Howard）是一家领先的少数民族服务机构，而约翰·霍普金斯（Johns Hopkins）是一个公认的NCI指定的癌症中心。一项教育努力汇集了霍华德医生和牙医，他们专注于少数群体和研究与HPV相关的癌症的约翰·霍普金斯研究人员，将有助于解决社会经济的差异以及癌症健康，健康教育和与健康有关的专业人员的障碍。通过一系列合作试点项目，包括小鼠模型中的HPV疫苗开发，华盛顿特区社区人群的流行病学研究以及两所大学之间的广泛心理网络，这项合作将显着增强职业发展，教育和竞争力，在寻求霍华德学生和教育工作的资金机会方面。具体目的是：1）支持霍华德大学医学机构和约翰·霍普金斯（Johns Hopkins）的西德尼·金梅尔（Sidney Kimmel）癌症中心之间的合作癌症研究项目； 2）提供协作培训和心理计划，以促进霍华德医学和牙科学生以及癌症研究中的教师，3）建立教育计划，以推动癌症研究知识，因为它适用于少数族裔服务机构的病因，预防，诊断和治疗与HPV相关的癌症。
