OVERALL PROJECT ABSTRACT The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) Center for Health Equity Research (CHER) will effectively contribute to the elimination of health inequalities among minority populations by addressing Structural Violence, one of the major root causes of health disparities. Structural Violence refers to the multiple ways in which social, economic, and political systems expose particular populations to risks leading to increased morbidity and mortality. The Center assembles investigators from six UIC units: School of Public Health, College of Medicine, UI Health Cancer Center, College of Nursing, the Institute for Minority Health Research, and the Office of Community Engagement and Neighborhood- Health Partnerships, and the University of Chicago's Center for Asian Health Equity to develop multidisciplinary and multi-level research. CHER is led by under-represented minorities (URM) investigators (including fully bilingual, English/Spanish) with expertise on health disparities and community engagement. UIC is an R1 Minority Serving Institution and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution, situated in the heart of Chicago, with a long-standing mission of social justice and civic engagement. The overall goal of CHER is to advance the science of health disparities by examining the ways in which Structural Violence contributes to such disparities among African American, Latino, and Asian American (and their intersecting sexual minority) populations. The Specific aims include: Aim 1. Strengthening institutional and investigators' capacity to pursue health disparities research on Structural Violence (Administrative Core). Aim 2. Provide career development opportunities to junior faculty, post-doctoral trainees, and new investigators, especially URM (Administrative and Investigator Development Core) Aim 3. Stimulate and enhance the production of publications and grant applications in Structural Violence as a root cause of health inequalities (Investigator Development Core and Research Projects). Aim 4. Support transdisciplinary and multi-level research on the pathways between Structural Violence and health inequalities (Investigator Development Core and Research Projects). Aim 5. Facilitate and strengthen community partnerships for the support of engaged scholarship and the dissemination and translation of research (Community Engagement Core). CHER consists of three Cores and three research projects: Community stressors and racial disparities in colorectal cancer risk; Intergenerational transmission of racialized stress and cardiovascular disease risk in Latino families; and Exposure to violence, trauma, resilience, and mental health in South East Asian immigrants.

总体项目摘要 伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校 (UIC) 健康公平研究中心 (CHER) 将有效做出贡献 通过解决结构性暴力来消除少数民族人口的健康不平等，这是 健康差异的主要根源。结构性暴力是指社会、 经济和政治制度使特定人群面临导致发病率增加和 死亡。 该中心聚集了来自 UIC 六个单位的研究人员：公共卫生学院、医学院、UI Health 癌症中心、护理学院、少数族裔健康研究所和社区办公室 参与和邻里健康伙伴关系以及芝加哥大学亚洲健康中心 公平发展多学科、多层次的研究。 CHER 由代表性不足的少数族裔领导 (URM) 调查人员（包括完全双语，英语/西班牙语），具有健康差异和 社区参与。 UIC 是一所 R1 少数族裔服务机构以及亚裔美国人和美洲原住民服务机构 太平洋岛民服务机构，位于芝加哥市中心，长期致力于社会服务 正义和公民参与。 CHER 的总体目标是通过研究健康差异的方式来推进健康差异的科学。 结构性暴力加剧了非裔美国人、拉丁裔和亚裔美国人（以及 他们的交叉性少数群体）人口。具体目标包括： 目标 1. 加强机构和研究人员进行结构性健康差异研究的能力 暴力（行政核心）。 目标 2. 为初级教师、博士后培训生和新人提供职业发展机会 调查员，尤其是 URM（行政和调查员发展核心） 目标 3. 刺激和加强结构性暴力方面的出版物和拨款申请，作为 健康不平等的根本原因（研究者发展核心和研究项目）。 目标 4. 支持对结构性暴力与暴力之间的途径进行跨学科和多层次的研究 健康不平等（研究者发展核心和研究项目）。 目标 5. 促进和加强社区伙伴关系，以支持参与的学术和 研究的传播和翻译（社区参与核心）。 CHER 由三个核心和三个研究项目组成： 社区压力源和种族差异 结直肠癌风险；种族压力和心血管疾病风险的代际传播 拉丁裔家庭；东南亚的暴力、创伤、复原力和心理健康状况 移民。
