Andrew J Karter, PhD Lead, Health Disparities Core |
The over-arching goal of the Health Disparities Core is to create capacity and collaborations that evaluate existing models of care and the effects of translational interventions across social groups. We will continue to support junior investigators in the study of diabetes translational research projects with an emphasis on monitoring of ethnic group-specific effects after implementation of new translational intervention and quality improvement efforts. The Health Disparities Core will continue to disseminate knowledge of methods and findings of diabetes translational disparities research through collaborations, meetings, and publications, and share expertise with health systems on models of care. The Specific Aims (SAs) of the Health Disparities Core are to:
