PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This proposal is a resubmission of the University of Arizona Cancer Center’s (UACC) Cancer Prevention and Control R25T postdoctoral training program re-competition. This program was first funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in 1998 as a R25T and currently continues under that mechanism (2R25CA078447). Our R25T program is currently in a no cost extension year and has supported 9 successful postdoctoral fellows over the current grant cycle (2010 – 2015), 44% of whom are from underserved populations. This T32 proposal requests 4 postdoctoral positions per year for two-year training periods with the goal to train a maximum of 10 postdoctoral trainees over five years. Upon program completion, T32 fellows will be prepared to proceed to successful and productive independent cancer health disparity research careers that contribute to decreases in cancer morbidity and mortality among underserved populations. This will be achieved through two designated foci: 1) recruit qualified trainees committed to cancer prevention work in underserved populations, including researchers from underserved communities and those with an interest in cancer health disparities science; and 2) train individuals in cancer prevention and control and health disparities science to reduce health disparities. During this training program, fellows will be required to 1) engage in a primary research project along with required coursework, including a health disparities training curriculum; 2) attend and lecture in the weekly UACC Cancer Prevention and Control seminar series; 3) submit their work for presentation and publication in peer-reviewed journals; 4) attend scientific and career development meetings; and 5) develop a grant proposal for research funding. This proposed Cancer Prevention and Control Health Disparities Training Program aligns with the University of Arizona’s strategic plan and addresses the needs of our State’s unique population (25.5% Hispanic, 4.1% African-American, and 5.8% Native American residents, as compared to national averages of 15.8% Hispanic/Latino, 12.6% African-American, and 0.7% Native American (US Census Bureau)). This distinctive geographic location along with our strong community ties, university partnerships, CPC postdoctoral training history, and university infrastructure and resources uniquely position us to train the next generation of CPC researchers focused on reducing health disparities and working with underserved communities.

项目概要/摘要 该提案是亚利桑那大学癌症中心 (UACC) 癌症预防和 控制R25T博士后培养项目复赛 本项目首次获得国家资助。 癌症研究所 (NCI) 于 1998 年作为 R25T，目前继续按照该机制 (2R25CA078447)。 我们的 R25T 计划目前处于免费延期年，并已支持 9 名成功的博士后研究员 在当前的拨款周期（2010 年至 2015 年）中，其中 44% 来自服务不足的人群。 每年要求 4 个博士后职位，为期两年的培训期，目标是最多培训 10 名博士后 五年以上的博士后培训生项目完成后，T32 研究员将准备继续进行 成功且富有成效的独立癌症健康差异研究事业，有助于减少 服务不足人群的癌症发病率和死亡率 这将通过两个指定项目来实现。 重点：1) 招募合格的学员致力于服务不足人群的癌症预防工作，包括 来自服务不足社区的研究人员和对癌症健康差异科学感兴趣的人； 2）对个人进行癌症预防和控制以及健康差异科学方面的培训，以减少健康差异。 在此培训计划期间，研究员将被要求 1）参与主要研究项目 必修课程，包括健康差异培训课程；2) 每周参加讲座 UACC 癌症预防和控制研讨会系列；3) 提交他们的作品以供展示和出版 同行评审期刊；4) 参加科学和职业发展会议；5) 制定资助提案； 这项拟议的癌症预防和控制健康差异培训计划与此相一致。 与亚利桑那大学的战略计划相结合，并满足我们州独特人口的需求 （与全国相比，25.5% 为西班牙裔居民、4.1% 为非裔美国人、5.8% 为美国原住民居民 平均 15.8% 为西班牙裔/拉丁裔，12.6% 为非裔美国人，0.7% 为美洲原住民（美国人口普查） 独特的地理位置以及我们强大的社区联系、大学合作伙伴关系， 中国共产党博士后培养历史、大学基础设施和资源使我们在培养博士后方面具有得天独厚的优势 下一代 CPC 研究人员致力于减少健康差距并与服务不足的人群合作 社区。
