项目摘要

The seemingly immutable existence of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in cardiovascular disease is problematic. Medical doctors play an important role in the nation's health by treating the sick. Public health complements medicine by focusing on population health. Some argue that public health and medicine move in opposite directions but this is a false dichotomy. Despite billions of dollars spent on research and volumes of published studies, there is no consensus on why racial and ethnic disparities in CVDs such as hypertension have not been reduced. We seek to prepare a new generation of medical students from groups underrepresented in medicine to address CVD disparities through transdisciplinary research that combines the best of medicine and public health. The purpose of this proposal is to create a two-summer, developmental research program titled, The Research to Reduce Disparities in Disease (R2D2). The R2D2 program seeks to develop “hands-on” research skills of medical students at the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine (MSU-CHM). It will train medical students to conduct community-based translational research on CVD health disparities. The mission is to create a research education program that will make MSU-CHM medical students more competitive for research-oriented residency programs. The Specific Aims are to: (1) Implement and evaluate a two-summer, developmental community-based public health research education program for a racially and ethnically diverse group of medical students. (2) Create two new summer “hands-on” research methods classes to increase practical research skills among medical students. (3) Recruit and select seven medical students each year, “ramping up” to 14 students in the program by the second year and maintain a total of 14 students in years two through five of the grant. (4) Train the selected students in community-based research methods, including the collection, entry, management, and analysis of data, as well as effective data presentation and visualization. (5) Pair each student with a funded faculty mentor who will supervise the student within a two-month community-based research project that will culminate in a paper submitted for publication. Medicine and public health are natural allies. However, they do not always work optimally together. Professional differences in training and perspectives have led to a false impression that public health professionals only work “upstream” on prevention while physicians are only concerned with “downstream” patient care. R2D2 will prepare medical students to conduct the transdisciplinary research needed to achieve health equity in cardiovascular diseases. We aim to train medical students who will bridge the boundary between medicine and public health. R2D2 medical students will hopefully, can bring the world of biomedicine and the world of psychosocial public health together, bringing biology into the community and the community into the clinic.

心血管疾病中种族、民族和社会经济差异看似不可改变的存在医生通过治疗公众健康在国家健康中发挥着重要作用。通过关注人口健康来补充医学。一些人认为公共卫生和医学正在介入。尽管在研究上花费了数十亿美元，但这是一种错误的二分法。已发表的研究表明，对于为什么高血压等心血管疾病存在种族和民族差异，目前尚未达成共识我们寻求从团体中培养新一代医学生。医学界代表性不足，通过跨学科研究解决 CVD 差异，该研究结合了该提案的目的是创造一个两夏季的发展环境。名为“减少疾病差异的研究”(R2D2) 的研究计划 R2D2 计划旨在培养密歇根州立大学人类学院医学生的“实践”研究技能医学（MSU-CHM）将培训医学生进行基于社区的转化研究。 CVD 健康差异的使命是创建一个研究教育计划，使 MSU-CHM 成为可能。医学生在研究型住院医师项目中更具竞争力。具体目标是：(1) 实施和评估为期两个夏季的、基于社区的发展性公共卫生研究教育面向不同种族和民族的医学生群体的计划 (2) 创建两个新的暑期“实践”项目。提高医学生实践研究技能的研究班方法 (3) 招募和选拔。每年 7 名医学生，到第二年该项目的学生人数“增加”到 14 名（四）对选定的学生进行培训基于社区的研究方法，包括数据的收集、输入、管理和分析，以及 (5) 为每个学生配备一位受资助的导师，导师将监督学生进行为期两个月的社区研究项目，最终形成一篇论文医学和公共卫生是天然的盟友，但它们并不总是有效。培训和观点方面的专业差异导致了一种错误的印象：公共卫生专业人员只在预防方面“上游”工作，而医生只关心 “下游”患者护理将为医学生进行跨学科研究做好准备。我们的目标是培养能够弥补心血管疾病健康公平的医学生。 R2D2 医学生有望将医学与公共卫生之间的界限带入世界。生物医学和社会心理公共卫生世界结合在一起，将生物学带入社区和社会社区走进诊所。
