The Miami Museum of Science, in collaboration with University of Miami's (UM) School of Medicine, is requesting a Phase II grant to support national replication of the Biomedical Training, Research and College Prep (BioTrac) Project. The goal of Phase I, now in its final year of funding, was to develop a replicable model aimed at increasing the numbers of underserved students entering the biomedical research pipeline. Phase I focused on priority areas under Healthy People 2000 reflecting health issues of interest to the community as well as resources available through UM's Jackson Memorial Medical Center. Comprising hands-on project-based programming, career awareness activities, college prep, research internships and college residential experiences, the project has served 98 students to date, of whom 88% are low-income and 96% reside in homes where English is the second language. Of the 43 seniors who have graduated to date, 42 are enrolled in post-secondary studies. Of these, 52% have chosen a science-related major, and of these, 73% have chosen a biomedical course of study. Under the proposed Phase II project, the Museum will establish BioTrac as a national demonstration site, extending BioTrac strategies and materials to formal and informal science institutions (ISis) through site-based institutes, distance-learning opportunities and professional conferences and publications. Continued delivery of BioTrac programming at the demonstration site will also further increase the number of underrepresented students entering the biomedical research pipeline, and allow for further programming aimed at increasing public understanding of Healthy People 2010 priorities and biomedical research. The Museum will target ISis with youth programs to attend a 3-day replication institute, reaching a minimum of 30 ISis during the grant. Through participation in national conferences and professional development sponsored by the Association of Science-Technology Centers, representing 340 ISis, the model has the capacity to impact small, medium, and large science centers nationwide. The model will also be adaptable for use by the other 123 Upward Bound Math & Science Centers engaged in science enrichment programming for underserved youth. Finally, elements of the model will be suitable for extracurricular school-based science clubs and high school magnet programs focused on biomedicine, further extending the potential impact of the model to school districts nationwide.

迈阿密科学博物馆与迈阿密大学 (UM) 医学院合作，正在申请第二阶段拨款，以支持生物医学培训、研究和大学预科 (BioTrac) 项目在全国范围内的复制。第一阶段的目标是开发一个可复制的模型，旨在增加进入生物医学研究渠道的服务不足的学生数量，目前已进入资助的最后一年。第一阶段的重点是“健康人民 2000”下的优先领域，反映社区感兴趣的健康问题以及通过 UM 杰克逊纪念医疗中心提供的资源。包括基于项目的实践编程、职业意识活动、大学预科、研究实习和 凭借大学住宿体验，该项目迄今为止已为 98 名学生提供服务，其中 88% 为低收入学生，96% 居住在以英语为第二语言的家庭中。迄今为止，已毕业的 43 名高年级学生中，有 42 人正在接受高等教育。其中，52%选择了科学相关专业，其中73%选择了生物医学课程。根据拟议的第二阶段项目，博物馆将把 BioTrac 建立为国家示范点，通过现场机构、远程学习机会以及专业会议和出版物，将 BioTrac 战略和材料扩展到正式和非正式科学机构 (ISis)。在演示中继续提供 BioTrac 编程 该网站还将进一步增加进入生物医学研究渠道的代表性不足的学生数量，并允许开展进一步的规划，旨在提高公众对《健康人 2010》优先事项和生物医学研究的了解。博物馆将针对伊斯兰国组织青年计划，让他们参加为期 3 天的复制研究所，在拨款期间至少达到 30 名伊斯兰国组织成员。通过参加代表 340 个 ISi 的科学技术中心协会主办的全国会议和专业发展，该模式有能力影响全国小型、中型和大型科学中心。该模型也适用于其他 123 个为服务不足的青少年开展科学丰富项目的 Upward Bound 数学和科学中心。最后，该模型的元素将适用于校外科学俱乐部和专注于生物医学的高中磁石项目，进一步将该模型的潜在影响扩展到全国学区。
