DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): The NCCU-WFU Biomedical Sciences Bridge Partnership is a Bridges to the Future initiative for the training of M.S. students in the Department of Biology at North Carolina Central University (NCCU) to continue in their Ph.D. training at the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology at Wake Forest University (WFU). Our goal to create and maintain a "research environment" at NCCU will be achieved by maintaining strong research programs through NCCU's J.L. Chambers Biomedical/ Biotechnology Research Institute (JLC-BBRI), by increasing awareness of the NCCU-WFU Bridge Partnership program among Ph.D.-directed candidates, selecting graduate students with potential for success, and nurturing them through laboratory research and research-related activities. Our goal to foster the "research thinking process" among graduate students will be achieved by promoting level Ill cognitive skills into coursework. Our goal to bridge students into an advanced position when entering the Ph.D. phase of their training, yet diminishing the social disadvantage, will be implemented by developing faculty research collaborations between institutions so that students can work on aspects of the project at both institutions, and by fostering joint programs between students at NCCU and WFU. The NCCU-WFU Biomedical Sciences Bridge Partnership proposes to take advantage of the unique research environment of the JLC-BBRI on the NCCU campus by making available to underrepresented minority students the dual environments of an active biomedical research facility and the HBCU community. To achieve these goals, we are requesting support for 3 graduate assistantships, tuition, health insurance, computers and travel to an annual scientific meeting for 3 M.S. students in year one, to increase to 6 students in year three. We are also requesting 3 years of support for a program administrator and office assistant at 25% effort each, and support supplies and travel cost related to the administration of this program. Support of students via the NCCU-WFU Biomedical Sciences Bridge Partnership will solidify the existing effective inter-institutional partnership between NCCU and WFU that will improve the quantity, but more importantly, the quality, of the next generation of underrepresented minority scientists in the U.S.

描述（由申请人提供）：NCCU-WFU生物医学桥梁合作伙伴关系是培训M.S.的未来计划的桥梁。北卡罗来纳州中央大学（NCCU）生物学系的学生继续获得博士学位。 Wake Forest University（WFU）的生理学和药理学系培训。通过NCCU的J.L. Chambers生物医学/生物技术研究所（JLC-BBRI）维持强大的研究计划，我们将在NCCU创建和维持“研究环境”的目标，通过提高NCCU-WFU Bridge Bridge Progript的认识，从而使领导者的研究生在研究生中进行成功和研究的研究，并通过培训研究生，并培养研究生的研究。我们的目标是通过将水平不适的认知能力纳入课程工作来实现研究生中的“研究思维过程”。我们的目标是在进入博士学位时将学生融入高级职位。他们的培训阶段将通过在机构之间建立教师研究合作来实施他们的培训阶段，但会降低社会劣势，以便学生可以在这两个机构的项目方面工作，并促进NCCU和WFU的学生之间的共同计划。 NCCU-WFU生物医学桥梁的伙伴关系建议通过向代表性不足的少数民族学生提供活跃的生物医学研究设施和HBCU社区的双重环境，以利用NCCU校园中JLC-BBRI的独特研究环境。为了实现这些目标，我们要求支持3个研究生助理，学费，健康保险，计算机和旅行参加3级M.S.的年度科学会议。第一年的学生，在三年级中增加了6名学生。我们还要求为计划管理员和办公室助理以25％的努力提供3年的支持，并支持与该计划管理有关的供应和旅行成本。通过NCCU-WFU生物医学桥梁的支持学生的支持将巩固NCCU和WFU之间现有有效的机构间合作伙伴关系，这将改善数量，但更重要的是，下一代美国代表性不足的少数派科学家的质量
