UH Cancer Center Hotline: the training and education program of the University of Guam/University of Hawai'i Cancer Center Partnership.

Although funding from United States and international health organizations is contributing to infrastructure development and health systems strengthening in the Pacific region, Guam and the neighboring US-Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPI) have historically lacked the infrastructure (eg, cancer screening and treatment facilities, scientific laboratories, long-standing cancer registries) and trained personnel (eg, researchers, clinicians, data registrars) necessary to conduct effective cancer research. Weaknesses in the regional educational pipeline (K-12), particularly in mathematics and science, contribute to the low numbers of Americans of Pacific Island ancestry in master's and doctoral degree programs across the country.1 Relatively low faculty salaries, geographical isolation, limited funding, outdated facilities, institutional barriers, and outmigration further challenge efforts led by academic and leading research institutions to establish research training programs and research partnerships in the region. Despite the many challenges, however, it is clear that research and research training must be part of the solution if the Pacific region and Pacific Islanders are to realize improved health, less suffering, and fewer deaths in the 21st century. 
 
 
The University of Hawai‘i Cancer Center (UHCC) and the University of Guam (UOG) have shared a commitment to serve the needs of populations and communities in the Pacific region through improving cancer research, care, training and education, and outreach to ultimately reduce cancer health disparities in the region. Funding from the National Cancer Institute's (NCI) Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities supports the long-standing partnership of the two institutions, initiated in 2002 to increase the number of minority scientists of Pacific Islander ancestry engaged in cancer research while building capacity at the University of Guam to conduct cancer research, and to sharpen the focus at UHCC in addressing cancer health disparities relevant to the Pacific region. Towards this objective, the UOG/UHCC Partnership supports a Training and Education Program. The aims of the Training and Education Program include: 
 
 
Train minority Pacific Islander students in cancer research at the MS level at the University of Guam and at the PhD level at the University of Hawai‘i; 
 
 
Stimulate cancer research efforts at the University of Guam through mentorship and faculty development; and 
 
 
Develop a cancer health disparities track in the Micronesian Studies Program, a master's program at the University of Guam.
