DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goals of the MBRS program are to increase the numbers of underrepresented minority faculty, investigators and students engaged in biomedical and behavioral research, and to broaden the opportunities for underrepresented minority faculty and students for participation in biomedical and behavioral research. These goals are integral to the long-term, institutional commitment of Hunter College to diversity, and thus, the College proposes to continue, expand and improve its MBRS supported RISE program. The MBRS Program, which has been in existence at Hunter College since 1981 has produced approximately 63 PhDs from students who are underrepresented in science disciplines, and an additional 38 students are enrolled in PhD Programs. In this renewal, we propose to continue our Undergraduate Research Training Program (10 supported students) and our Graduate Student Training program (16 supported students). At both the undergraduate and graduate level, trainees who are underrepresented in science (African-American and Hispanic, primarily) receive intensive research experiences in laboratories engaged in nationally funded, competitive, state of the art, biomedical science research. Participating departments include Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Psychology. At the undergraduate level, the program also involves intensive mentoring by a faculty member and other enrichment activities intended to enhance science performance and to inspire and motivate students to seek advanced degrees in science (PhDs) and research careers. At the graduate level, it provides an environment which promotes the achievement of a PhD and future science careers. In addition, undergraduate students attend at least one extramural summer research program either at The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University or at other sites in the USA. A number of specific objectives are detailed in the specific aims section and the evaluation plan in order to achieve program goals. The most important aims include increasing entrance into PhD programs by RISE undergraduates from 40 to 50% of program participants and increasing the number of PhDs received/year by graduate students by 25% (from 2/yr to 2.5/yr). At the graduate level, 90% of students awarded a PhD will enter post-doctoral programs. Students in the Physics Graduate Program will receive tutoring and assistance to pass the qualifying exams in order to increase the number of participating students from this department by 30% (from 3 to 4). Two masters students will be supported yearly and 75% of them will enter PhD programs. The proposed program will continue Hunter College's tradition of graduating large numbers of minority students who become graduate students, post doctoral fellows and faculty members engaged in science research at numerous colleges and universities in NYC and elsewhere in the USA. Project Narrative: Undergraduate college students and graduate students (enrolled in Ph.D. programs) will receive research training in biomedical areas. Thus, this program will educate and train the next generation of scientists who engage in research to benefit public health.

描述（由申请人提供）：MBRS计划的目标是增加从事生物医学和行为研究的代表性不足的少数群体，研究人员和学生的数量，并扩大代表性不足的少数群体以及学生参与生物医学和行为研究的机会。这些目标是亨特学院对多样性的长期，机构承诺的不可或缺的一部分，因此，学院建议继续，扩展和改善其MBR支持的崛起计划。自1981年以来一直在亨特学院（Hunter College）出现的MBRS计划从科学学科中分别不足的学生获得了大约63个博士学位，另外38名学生参加了博士学位课程。在此续约中，我们建议继续我们的本科研究培训计划（10名支持学生）和我们的研究生培训计划（16名支持学生）。在本科和研究生层面上，在科学方面的人数不足（非裔美国人和西班牙裔）的学员在从事国家资助，竞争性，艺术，生物医学科学研究的实验室中获得了深入的研究经验。参与的部门包括生物学，化学，物理和心理学。在本科层面，该计划还涉及教职员工和其他丰富活动的密集指导，旨在提高科学表现，并激发和激励学生寻求科学高级学位（PHD）和研究职业。在研究生层面，它提供了一个促进博士和未来科学职业的环境。此外，本科生在哥伦比亚大学的医师和外科医生学院或美国其他地点参加至少一项校外研究计划。在特定目标部分和评估计划中详细介绍了许多具体目标，以实现计划目标。最重要的目的包括将大学生的入学率从40％的计划参与者增加到50％，并将研究生/年收到的博士学位增加25％（从2/年增加到2.5/年）。在研究生级别上，有90％的学生授予博士学位将进入博士后课程。物理研究生课程的学生将获得辅导和帮助，以通过合格的考试，以便将该部门的参与学生数量增加30％（从3到4）。每年将为两名硕士学生提供支持，其中75％将进入博士学位课程。拟议的计划将继续亨特学院（Hunter College）毕业的传统，即在纽约市和美国其他地方的许多学院和大学从事科学研究的大量少数少数学生，博士后研究员和教职员工。项目叙述：大学生和研究生（参加博士学位课程）将在生物医学领域接受研究培训。因此，该计划将教育和培训从事研究以使公共卫生受益的下一代科学家。
