项目摘要

ABSTRACT The U.S. is facing a biomedical workforce crisis, exacerbated by insufficient diversity among individuals entering the career path, starting with attrition from STEM majors in undergraduate training. The result, particularly for diseases that disparately impact minority and underserved populations, is a lack of innovative solutions to advance health outcomes. Chronic kidney disease and end stage kidney disease disproportionately affect African Americans and represent a substantial medical and economic burden in the U.S., with annual management costs estimated at $120 billion. Duke University is uniquely positioned to address this critical problem by building a robust, diverse, and sustainable pipeline of future academic biomedical scientists. Our recently established Office of Physician Scientist Development (OPSD) offers a sustainable structure for mentorship, professional development, and research funding. By leveraging this institutional structure, we are well positioned to support the development, implementation, and evaluation of a program that links resources across the training spectrum to introduce undergraduate students to varied research career opportunities, while preparing senior trainees transitioning to faculty positions to become strong independent investigators skilled in mentoring students from diverse backgrounds. To address the biomedical workforce gap, we propose the Paired Undergraduate Mentoring Program (PUMP) in Uronephrology, which will recruit diverse cohorts of undergraduate students and expose them to research skills-building and mentored research experiences in urology and nephrology. We will provide evidence-based professional development activities targeting both the student participants and the trainees who will serve as the day-to-day research project mentors. Duke PUMP will achieve our long-term goal, addressing barriers that limit the recruitment and retention of a diverse uronephrology workforce, through intensive research experiences, structured triangular mentorship, and sustained virtual engagement. The program focuses on 1) implementing a mentored summer research enrichment program to develop interest in uronephrology research careers among a diverse cohort of rising junior and senior undergraduates; 2) preparing next-generation uronephrology investigators to mentor a diverse biomedical workforce by training graduate students and postdoctoral associates in mentorship and providing them critical experience leading student research projects; and 3) preparing a diverse cohort of undergraduates for post-graduate training and entry into uronephrology research careers through sustained engagement that extends and enriches the summer research program experience. Successful implementation of the proposed program will lead to a scalable model for development of a robust pipeline for a diverse biomedical research workforce across disciplines.

抽象的美国面临的生物医学劳动力危机，由于参与的个人的多样性不足而加剧职业道路，从本科培训中的STEM大满贯开始。结果，特别是对少数群体和服务不足的人群的疾病缺乏创新的解决方案提高健康成果。慢性肾脏疾病和末期肾脏疾病不成比例地影响非洲裔美国人，代表着美国的实质性医疗和经济负担管理成本估计为1,200亿美元。杜克大学的独特位置可以解决这一关键通过建立未来学术生物医学科学家的强大，多样化和可持续的管道来建立问题。我们的最近成立的医师科学家发展办公室（OPSD）为指导，专业发展和研究资金。通过利用这种机构结构，我们是在支持将资源链接的计划的开发，实施和评估方面良好的位置在整个培训领域，将本科生介绍给各种研究职业机会，而准备高级学员过渡到教师职位，成为熟练的独立研究人员指导来自不同背景的学生。为了解决生物医学劳动力差距，我们提出了肾脏形态学中配对的本科指导计划（泵），该计划将招募各种各样的人群本科生，并将他们暴露于研究技能建设和指导研究经验泌尿科和肾脏科。我们将提供基于证据的专业发展活动学生参与者和学员将担任日常研究项目导师。杜克泵将实现我们的长期目标，解决限制招募和保留多样性的障碍肾脏流体学的劳动力，通过密集的研究经验，结构化的三角形指导和持续的虚拟参与。该计划的重点是1）实施一项指导的夏季研究丰富计划，以在各种各样的群体中培养对肾流体研究职业的兴趣初中和高级本科生； 2）准备下一代的尿症研究者来指导多样化培训研究生和博士后助理的生物医学劳动力，并提供他们的重要经验领导学生研究项目； 3）准备多样化的本科生通过持续的参与度进行研究生培训和进入肾脏流体研究职业生涯扩展并丰富夏季研究计划的经验。成功实施拟议的计划将导致一个可扩展的模型，用于开发强大的管道，以进行多种生物医学研究跨学科的劳动力。
