DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this project is to promote the development of key professional skills among minority graduate and postdoctoral students in biomedicine by creating effective live, online, and CD-ROM short courses. Specifically, the project will develop and disseminate two proven live, web, and CD-ROM short courses that focus on two critical skills areas: writing and reviewing for journals and making oral and poster presentations. Each course will include a strong focus on the interaction of racial/ethnic background and culture with the development of these skills. Minority students who complete the course(s) will: - Improve their performance in specific professional skills areas; - Increase their understanding of how these skills can impact career opportunities and advancement in biomedicine; - Increase their understanding of how diversity issues, especially cultural influences and background experiences, can interact with the development of professional skills targeted by the course; and - Increase their knowledge of resources and materials that can further assist in their development of these key professional skills. Advisors and mentors also will benefit from these tools since they will address important cultural issues and provide resources and strategies for integrating cultural aspects with professional skills training. Products from the project will include: - print materials to allow easy replication of the live course; - CD-ROMs that can be used to take each course individually or as a seminar group; and - Online interactive web courses that can be accessed at any time by individuals or groups or as part of a regularly offered web course, led by experienced biomedical researchers and mentors. An Advisory Board will guide the project activities and an evaluation component will document progress on the project activities, dissemination of the courses, and impacts on participants.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目的总体目标是通过创建有效的实时，在线和CD-ROM短课程来促进生物医学少数群体研究生和博士后学生的关键专业技能的发展。具体而言，该项目将开发并传播两个经过验证的现场，网络和CD-ROM简短课程，这些课程侧重于两个关键技能领域：期刊的写作和审查以及进行口头和海报演示。每个课程都将重点关注种族/种族背景和文化与这些技能发展的相互作用。完成课程的少数民族学生将： - 提高他们在特定专业技能领域的表现； - 提高他们对这些技能如何影响生物医学的职业机会和进步的理解； - 提高他们对多样性问题，尤其是文化影响和背景经验的理解，可以与课程针对的专业技能的发展进行互动；和 - 提高他们对资源和材料的了解，以进一步帮助他们发展这些关键的专业技能。顾问和导师也将从这些工具中受益，因为它们将解决重要的文化问题，并提供将文化方面与专业技能培训相结合的资源和策略。该项目的产品将包括： - 打印材料，可以轻松复制现场课程； - 可用于单独或作为研讨会组的CD-ROM；和 - 在线互动网络课程，可以随时由个人或团体或作为经验丰富的生物医学研究人员和导师领导的定期提供的网络课程的一部分访问。顾问委员会将指导项目活动，评估部分将记录项目活动的进度，课程传播以及对参与者的影响。
