Department of Defense (DOD) Fiscal Year 2006 (FY06) Prostate Cancer Research Program (PCRP) Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Collaborative Partnership Award: The intent of the HBCU Collaborative Partnership Award is to intensify the commitment of the prostate cancer research community to investigate the disparate burden of prostate cancer among affected populations. To effectively address this issue, these awards are directed at HBCU institutions as a means to increase the number of HBCU scientists who are trained as prostate cancer researchers. This award is designed to establish stable, long-term partnerships between one or more investigators at the applicants HBCU institution and one or more experienced prostate cancer researchers at the collaborating institution(s) to (1) provide mentorship and collaborative research opportunities for HBCU scientists, clinicians, and trainees; (2) develop, promote, and sustain independent, competitive research and training programs at the HBCU; and (3) increase the number of HBCU investigators focused on prostate cancer research. Important aspects of the HBCU Collaborative Partnership Award are as follows: 1. Project Director: The applicant, who must be named as the Project Director, must be an HBCU faculty member holding a doctoral degree with demonstrated ability to bring together the necessary collaborators and manage the partnership. The Project Director must be sufficiently experienced to be able to facilitate and direct this multi-institutional collaboration effectively. 2. Collaboration: Although the applicant and proposal submission must be from an HBCU, a strong institutional commitment must be demonstrated by both partners. Established investigators from collaborating institutions must have a strong record of funding and achievement in prostate cancer research. These awards should enhance the applicants and trainees (faculty or students) skills and experiences to enable them to maintain a competitive and successful program in prostate cancer research. Site visits to recipient institutions will be conducted to monitor progress of the collaborative partnership. 3. Disease Disparity: Proposals should describe a plan to build a foundation and develop the necessary infrastructure for a research and training program at the HBCU institution that will provide investigators and trainees with opportunities to collaborate, train, and acquire the knowledge and experience necessary to address significant and relevant problems related to prostate cancer health disparity. Proposals may target any aspect of prostate cancer biology, etiology, prevention, detection, diagnosis, and/or treatment provided there is a clear connection to the overarching problem of disease disparity among affected populations.
