A Bridges to the Doctorate program between the two major Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI) in California's Central Valley is proposed. This program will assist under-represented minority (URM) students from the California State University, Fresno with completing a Master's program in the biomedical sciences before continuing and completing their Ph.D. program at the University of California, Davis. This proposal will build on major research themes, activities and facilities including Research Infrastructure in Minority Institutions Program (RIMI) at Fresno State, the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Clinical and Translational Science Center at UC Davis. Faculty members from the Colleges of Science and Mathematics at Fresno State and biomedical research focused graduate groups at UC Davis will create a highly interactive training program. The overall aim of the Fresno State Bridges to Doctorate program is to increase the number of URM graduate students entering and earning doctoral degrees in biomedical sciences. The program will recruit five graduate students each year with potential interests in pursuing research as a career and provide individually designed academic and research training plans to each. The major aims include: Refine professional skill sets through multiple opportunities to practice their oral and written skills and to network with other peers; actively participate and present at national/international research conferences to improve identification as a researcher and increase self-efficacy and science identity; Develop an understanding of and appreciation for their responsible conduct in research through supplemental responsible conduct in research (RCR) training course as well as for instructions on enhancing scientific reproducibility; and Provide summer research at research-intensive labs at UC Davis for the B2D students to integrate research experience that mirrors what they will experience in graduate school. The short- and long-range objectives are: To ensure that 90% of the B2D Scholars submit a graduate school application, with half the students being accepted into graduate Ph.D. programs in biomedical sciences in the first five years of the grant (short-range); Over the next decade we expect to maximize (80%) our B2D Scholars to join a Ph.D. program and pursue a career in biomedical research (long-range); and Over the next ten years, create a culture to expand and enhance the biomedical science curriculum developed by the B2D-Scholars program by the institutionalization of these practices (long-range). The Fresno-Davis B2D program will support the Scholars and lay the essential groundwork required to face the rigors of graduate school education in a highly competitive atmosphere. The Program Directors from both campuses have gathered a team of Faculty Mentors, an Advisory Committee and staff members, who are committed to the successful development of the program. All components of the Fresno-Davis Bridges program will be rigorously evaluated by an ongoing evaluation process to assess the success of the program.

两个主要西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）之间的博士学位课程的桥梁 提出了加利福尼亚的中央山谷。该计划将协助代表性不足的少数民族（URM）学生 弗雷斯诺（Fresno）加利福尼亚州立大学（Fresno 在继续并完成博士学位之前在加利福尼亚大学戴维斯分校的课程。该提议将 以主要研究主题，活动和设施为基础，包括少数族裔机构的研究基础设施 弗雷斯诺州，加州大学戴维斯分校综合癌症中心的计划（RIMI）以及临床和 加州大学戴维斯分校的转化科学中心。科学与数学学院的教师 加州大学戴维斯分校的弗雷斯诺州和生物医学研究集中的研究生群体将创建一个高度互动的 培训计划。弗雷斯诺州桥对博士学位课程的总体目的是增加数量 在生物医学科学中进入并获得博士学位的URM研究生。该程序将 每年招募五名研究生，潜在地从事研究并提供研究 每个人都为每个人设计了学术和研究培训计划。主要目的包括：完善 专业技能通过多种机会练习口头和书面技能，并与 其他同龄人；积极参与并在国家/国际研究会议上进行改善 确定研究人员并提高自我效能感和科学身份；对和 通过补充负责任的研究对他们在研究中负责任的行为表示赞赏 （RCR）培训课程以及有关增强科学可重复性的说明；并提供夏天 B2D学生在加州大学戴维斯分校的研究密集型实验室的研究，以整合研究经验 反映他们在研究生中将经历的东西。短期和远程目标是：确保 B2D学者中有90％提交了研究生院申请，一半的学生被接受 研究生博士赠款的头五年（短期）的生物医学科学计划；在下一个 我们期望将B2D学者最大化的十年（80％）加入博士学位。计划并从事职业 生物医学研究（远程）；在接下来的十年中，建立一种文化来扩展和增强 B2D-Scholars计划通过这些制度化开发的生物医学科学课程 实践（远程）。弗雷斯诺·戴维斯B2D计划将支持学者并奠定重要 在竞争激烈的氛围中，需要面对研究生教育的严格工作。这 来自两个校园的计划主管都聚集了一支由教师导师，咨询委员会和 致力于成功制定计划的工作人员。所有组成部分 Fresno-Davis Bridges计划将通过正在进行的评估过程进行严格评估，以评估 该计划的成功。
