Overall Summary: Center for Biomedical Research/Research Centers at Minority Institutions This proposal presents Tuskegee University's plan to continue development and strengthening of its RCMI supported Center for Biomedical Research (CBR). The existing and planned infrastructure in biomedical, molecular, and information technology plays a critical role in the University's plans to meet the health care challenges facing minorities in the 21 st century. The proposal was developed after institutional analysis of strengths and needs in biomedical research following Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and American Veterinary Medical Association accreditation and strategic planning. The overreaching goals of the proposal are to: 1) continue to support and strengthen biomedical research infrastructure; 2) assist in supporting the implementation of the new Ph. D. program in Integrative Biosciences; 3) promote mechanisms to institutionalize the CBR/RCMI program; 4) support individual developmental research projects in areas having significant health related impact on minority populations. This proposal builds on the vision of approaching minority health problems through five significant areas. These are bioinformatics and computational epidemiology, cancer, environmental toxicology, and immunology. These four areas of research examine specific diseases and basic principles, which disproportionately impact minority, especially African American, populations. This proposal has a section describing the overall nature of the institution and future goals of the University and the interrelationship between the CBR/RCMI program and the Ph. D. program, an Administrative section, a Core Facility section describing the existing biomedical research infrastructure (CBR/RCMI supported) and developmental plans for those facilities, and individual developmental proposals in the biomedical areas listed above. The implementation of the Core Facility and individual project proposals will enhance the ability of Tuskegee University faculty to compete in the biomedical research arena. Enhanced competition by Tuskegee faculty will improve the understanding of and conditions effecting the health care of minorities.

总体摘要：少数族裔机构的生物医学研究/研究中心 该提案介绍了杜斯基吉大学继续开发和加强其RCMI支持生物医学研究中心（CBR）的计划。生物医学，分子和信息技术中现有的和计划的基础设施在大学应对21世纪少数群体面临的医疗挑战的计划中起着至关重要的作用。该提案是在南部学院和学校协会以及美国兽医医学协会的认证和战略计划后对生物医学研究的优势和需求进行机构分析之后制定的。该提案的过度目标是：1）继续支持和加强生物医学研究基础设施； 2）协助支持综合生物科学中新的D. D.计划的实施； 3）促进机制使CBR/RCMI计划制度化； 4）支持对少数群体具有重大健康影响的领域的个人发展研究项目。该提议以五个重要领域的少数族裔健康问题的愿景为基础。这些是生物信息学和计算流行病学，癌症，环境毒理学和免疫学。这四个研究领域检查了特定的疾病和基本原则，这些疾病和基本原则会影响少数群体，尤其是非裔美国人的人口。 该提案有一节描述机构的整体性质和未来目标 大学与CBR/RCMI计划与博士学位课程之间的相互关系， 行政部门，一个核心设施部分，描述了这些设施的现有生物医学研究基础设施（支持CBR/RCMI）和开发计划，以及上面列出的生物医学领域的个人发展建议。核心设施和个人项目建议的实施将增强塔斯基吉大学教职员工在生物医学研究领域的竞争能力。 Tuskegee教职员工的竞争增强将改善对少数民族医疗保健的理解和条件。
