Goal for research and scholarship
  • To advance knowledge through basic and applied
    health research, especially research focused on
    the needs of the U.S./Mexico border

10
The needs of the region
  • The residents of our region suffer from
    disproportionate rates of asthma, diabetes,
    obesity, heart disease, elevated blood lead
    levels, antibiotic resistant infection, and other
    debilitating conditions.

11
  • The College of Health Sciences is uniquely
    positioned to focus on the diagnosis, treatment
    and prevention of these disorders.
  • Unique expertise in herbal products
  • Plans for a Clinical Trials Center

12
What will it take?
  • Faculty and staff
  • Facilities
  • Administrative support
  • Access

13
Faculty and Staff
  • To reach our goal we need the best faculty,
    individuals with the ability to establish
    extramurally-funded research programs.
  • We need to provide our faculty with everything
    they need to succeed, including time.
  • We need innovative approaches to workload
    allocation, ones that ensure both flexibility and
    accountability.

14
Physical facilities
  • We need a building on campus.

15
Administrative support
  • We need to make the best use of the Hispanic
    Health Disparities Research Center

16
Capitalize on our location
  • We need to take advantage of our location by
    establishing consistent access to underserved
    populations.

17
Access
  • Network of clinical and community sites in El
    Paso and Cd. Juarez

18
  • Location for teaching, research and service

19
  • Enroll members of the community into a long-term
    epidemiological study allowing each study to
    build on the former
  • Establish a database for retrospective and
    prospective studies
  • Each successive study enriches the database and
    gives us an advantage in funding competition
  • Use this to build a base in public health

20
  • Clinical network advisory board emphasizing the
    needs of the community
