Health Equity for Underrepresented Populations; Rural Health
COREs Connections:
A Series of Zoom Collaboration Events to Foster Inter-institutional Connections
The purpose of these Zoom collaboration calls is to promote connections between these six CTSA Institutions in preparation for the release of the annual RFA. Join us for a series of three zoom meetings to listen, share your research focus, and make connections with others in your research focus.
COREs Introduction
The Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) programs of the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center (UNM HSC), University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC), University of Kentucky, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), University of Iowa, and the University of Utah Health are seeking to make connections for all faculty members—senior as well as junior investigators —for pilot projects that will exemplify the CTSA mission of developing clinical and translational research, to promote and support the “bench to bedside to community and practice and back” goal of the National Institutes of Health, National Center for Advancing Translational Science (NCATS).
These meetings will focus on the four areas of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) strategic plan and its commitment to increasing representation in research:
- Climate Change and Environmental Health
- Health Equity for Underrepresented Populations
- For example, pediatric populations, older adults, people with disabilities and/or rare disorders, underrepresented racial/ethnic and/or sexual and gender minorities, rural populations, or populations with low socio-economic status. Click here for more details.
- Rural Health
- Maternal Health
