DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): Cancer, diabetes, kidney failure and cardiovascular, lung and blood diseases are annually responsible for several million deaths, high morbidity and tremendous economic costs in the United States alone. Minorities and blacks in particular, suffer unporportionally higher devastating effects from the aforementioned diseases than whites. The exceptionally high impact of these disorders on minority populations, results from a multitude of factors including a high percentage of economically disadvantaged minority families and an inadequate number of minority health care professionals and basic science researchers trained in biomedical science areas. The purpose of the proposed Bridges to the Baccalaureate Degree Program (BBDP) is to motivate and prepare 2-year baccalaureate degree in Biomedical areas. The program will expand established cooperative, inter-institutional and interdisciplinary training program between Jackson State University, (a historically black institution) and Hinds Community College (a 2-year college). The Program will utilize Faculty and Administrators at each institution in the planning, implementation and programmatic aspects including 1. Provision of functional steering and Advisory committees 2. Development and implementation of student selection and advisement procedures, and 3. Conceptualization, implementation and publicity of research finding. All HCC students will enroll in an Introduction to Research course that wilt provide training in research and laboratory methodologies, literature survey mechanisms, and scientific writing techniques. Students will engage in specific individualized research projects and present their research finding at local seminar and professional meetings. They will also be encouraged to submit research manuscripts to travel to local scientific conferences with student trainees where appropriate. Students will be exposed to biomedical, professional, and career experiences. They will also receive assistance in application procedures for baccalaureate degree programs in biomedical schools.

描述（由申请人提供）：癌症，糖尿病，肾脏衰竭和心血管疾病，肺和血液疾病每年对仅美国几百万人死亡，高发病率和巨大的经济成本负责。尤其是少数族裔和黑人，与白人相比，上述疾病的毁灭性影响更大。这些疾病对少数人群的极大影响是由许多因素引起的，其中包括很高的经济弱势群体少数族裔家庭，以及在生物医学科学领域接受培训的少数少数族裔保健专业人员和基础科学研究人员。拟议的桥梁计划（BBDP）提议的桥梁的目的是激励和准备生物医学区域的两年学位学位。该计划将扩大杰克逊州立大学（历史悠久的黑人机构）和Hinds社区学院（一所2年的大学）之间建立的合作，机构间和跨学科培训计划。该计划将在计划，实施和程序化方面利用每个机构的教师和管理人员，包括1。提供功能指导和咨询委员会2。开发和实施学生选择和咨询程序，以及3。研究发现的概念化，实施和宣传。所有HCC学生都将参加研究课程简介，该课程提供研究和实验室方法论，文献调查机制和科学写作技巧的培训。学生将参与特定的个性化研究项目，并在当地的研讨会和专业会议上介绍他们的研究发现。还将鼓励他们提交研究手稿，以便在适当的情况下与学生学员一起前往当地的科学会议。学生将接触生物医学，专业和职业经验。他们还将在生物医学学校的学士学位课程中获得帮助。
