The Department of Defense (DoD) is offering the Prostate Cancer Health Disparity Training Award through its Prostate Cancer Research Program (PCRP) to address disparities in prostate cancer incidence, morbidity, and mortality. This grant prepares predoctoral and postdoctoral investigators for careers focused on prostate cancer health disparity research. Applicants, considered the Principal Investigator, must propose a training program and research project explicitly related to an area of prostate cancer health disparity, such as race, socioeconomic status, or access to care. The award primarily provides salary support and requires a mentor experienced in the field. Proposals can span basic to clinical research, provided they align with PCRP focus areas and a health disparity issue.

| Description: | The PCRP Health Disparity Training Award mechanism was introduced in FY01. Since then, 38 applications have been received, and 22 have been recommended for funding.The Health Disparity Training Award reflects the PCRP�s commitment to resolving disparities in prostate cancer incidence, morbidity, and mortality by preparing young investigators to focus their careers on prostate cancer health disparity research. Applicants for this award must explicitly state how the proposed training program and research project are related to an area of prostate cancer health disparity. Appropriate health disparity areas include, but are not limited to, race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, access to health care, insurance status, age, geography, and cultural beliefs.The Health Disparity Training Award supports predoctoral and postdoctoral training opportunities focused on prostate cancer health disparity research. These awards primarily provide salary support for the Principal Investigator (PI); the trainee is considered the PI of the proposal. The PI must exhibit strong potential for and commitment to pursuing a career as a prostate cancer health disparity researcher; however, the PI is not required to have previous health disparity or prostate cancer research experience. Applications must include at least one mentor, appropriate to the proposed training and research project, who has experience in prostate cancer health disparity research as demonstrated by a record of funding and publications. The selected mentor(s) should demonstrate a clear commitment to the PI�s training and be well qualified to significantly contribute to the development of the PI toward a career in prostate cancer health disparity research.The PI must outline an individualized, prostate cancer-focused training program which may include coursework, laboratory techniques, conferences, seminars, journal clubs, teaching responsibilities, and/or clinical responsibilities that will provide the PI with experience in key areas relevant to the proposed work and foster the PI�s development as a prostate cancer researcher. An environment appropriate to the proposed training and research project must be clearly described.All applications for the Health Disparity Training Award are to be written by the PI, with appropriate direction from the mentor(s). The PCRP seeks applications from the wide spectrum of basic to clinical research, provided they are appropriately focused on an issue of prostate cancer health disparity. In addition, applications (1) should be relevant to at least one of the PCRP focus areas and (2) are encouraged, although not required, to be responsive to one of the PCRP overarching challenges. |
