项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This Phase III COBRE application seeks to support and sustain the momentum achieved during developmental Phases I and II of the Center for Colon Cancer Research (CCCR) at the University of South Carolina. In the US and South Carolina, colorectal cancer remains the 2nd leading cause of cancer death and the 4th highest in incidence. In the 91/2 years since COBRE funding was initiated, the CCCR has made significant strides in enhancing the critical mass of independent scientists studying this disease, as judged by establishment of fully functional laboratories, receipt of extramural research grants, and publication in highly regarded, peer-reviewed journals. In addition, a vibrant outreach program has been designed and implemented to educate citizens from diverse economic backgrounds about colorectal cancer and the value of screening, making South Carolina a national leader in advocacy for this disease. The CCCR is now a fully established, self-standing center that contributes to the nation's goal of reducing the morbidity of colorectal cancer. To carry on with this effort, the CCCR will implement the following aims during Phase III: Provision of administrative services and support through the Administrative Core. Support of financial, programmatic, and training aspects of the CCCR research and outreach effort will be provided. Operation of a group of interactive Research Cores. CCCR investigators will have state-of-the-art expertise and technology available through four Cores, each of which is led by an experienced and knowledgeable member of the CCCR faculty. Oversight of a Research Pilot Project Program. Through fiscal support for development of investigator initiated seed projects, as well as development of multi-disciplinary programs, the Pilot Project effort will enable entry into challenging new research areas, and will mediate unique collaborations. In addition, the project will manage a graduate scholarship program for underserved minorities. In all, the wide range of knowledge and proficiency exhibited by the interdisciplinary faculty comprising the CCCR provides the basis for sustaining, during Phase III period, that which was built during Phases I and II.

描述（由申请人提供）：本第三期 COBRE 申请旨在支持和维持南卡罗来纳大学结肠癌研究中心 (CCCR) 在第一期和第二期开发期间取得的势头。在美国和南卡罗来纳州，结直肠癌仍然是癌症死亡的第二大原因，发病率排名第四。自 COBRE 资助启动以来的 91/2 年间，CCCR 在提高研究这种疾病的独立科学家的临界质量方面取得了重大进展，这通过建立功能齐全的实验室、获得校外研究资助以及在备受推崇的期刊上发表文章来判断。，同行评审期刊。此外，还设计并实施了一项充满活力的外展计划，向来自不同经济背景的公民宣传结直肠癌和筛查的价值，使南卡罗来纳州成为该疾病宣传的全国领导者。 CCCR 现在是一个完全成立的独立中心，为国家降低结直肠癌发病率的目标做出贡献。为了继续这一努力，CCCR 将在第三阶段实现以下目标：通过行政核心提供行政服务和支持。将提供 CCCR 研究和推广工作的财务、计划和培训方面的支持。一组交互式研究核心的运行。 CCCR 研究人员将通过四个核心获得最先进的专业知识和技术，每个核心均由经验丰富、知识渊博的 CCCR 教职人员领导。研究试点项目计划的监督。通过对研究者发起的种子项目的开发以及多学科项目的开发提供财政支持，试点项目的努力将有助于进入具有挑战性的新研究领域，并将促进独特的合作。此外，该项目还将管理针对服务不足的少数族裔的研究生奖学金计划。总而言之，由 CCCR 组成的跨学科教师所表现出的广泛知识和熟练程度为在第三阶段期间维持第一阶段和第二阶段所建立的基础提供了基础。
