DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a revised proposal from the California State University, San Bernardino, for a Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) program. The CSUSB MARC program will be an institution-wide effort involving students and faculty in Biology, Chemistry, Kinesiology, Physics, and Psychology. The goal of this 5-year project is to substantially increase the number of CSUSB undergraduates from underrepresented minority groups who graduate and achieve biomedical and behavioral doctorates. The project will provide a comprehensive, inter-disciplinary array of Pre-MARC and MARC Trainee activities that will increase the number of these students who are able and motivated to succeed in rigorous doctoral study in these fields. Project Objectives include: 1. Increasing the number of well-prepared URM sophomores who are motivated to seek biomedical doctorates by at least 50% of current values, annually; 2. Attracting and retaining more high achieving, doctorally motivated graduates in these disciplines, nearly doubling the number by the end of the 5 year project period; 3. Increasing the enrollment of such graduates in relevant doctoral programs each year; Increasing the number of such students who attain biomedical and behavioral doctorates. The project is lead by a team of seasoned, highly productive CSUSB faculty researchers with proven track records in mentoring underrepresented minority students toward the doctorate. Ten Juniors and Seniors will be supported on this project. Public Health Relevance Statement: The future of the nation's biomedical research workforce depends on the continued development of well- trained undergraduates who seek biomedical and behavioral doctorates. The next generation will be made up increasingly of underrepresented minorities who historically have not pursued such goals. This project seeks to attract and prepare such students to meet this national need.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是加利福尼亚州立大学圣贝纳迪诺的一项修订建议，旨在少数群体获得研究职业（MARC）计划。 CSUSB MARC计划将是一项机构范围的努力，涉及学生和教职员工，从事生物学，化学，运动学，物理学和心理学。这个为期5年的项目的目标是大大增加来自代表性不足的少数群体的CSUSB本科生的数量，这些群体毕业并获得了生物医学和行为博士学位。该项目将提供一系列全面的跨学科和MARC培训生的活动，以增加这些能力并有动力在这些领域进行严格博士研究的学生人数。项目目标包括：1。增加准备好的URM大二学生的数量，这些大二学生每年都有动力去寻求生物医学博士学位的至少50％的当前价值； 2。在这些学科中吸引并保留更高的成就，具有博士学位的毕业生，到5年项目结束时，数字几乎翻了一番； 3。每年增加此类毕业生在相关博士课程中的入学人数；增加获得生物医学和行为博士学位的这些学生人数。该项目由一支经验丰富的，高产的CSUSB教师研究人员领导，在指导代表性不足的少数族裔学生登上博士学位的情况下，具有良好的往绩记录。该项目将支持十名大三和前辈。 公共卫生相关性声明：国家生物医学研究人员的未来取决于训练有素的本科生的持续发展，这些本科生寻求生物医学和行为博士学位。下一代将越来越多地由代表性不足的少数民族组成，而这些少数民族历来没有追求这样的目标。该项目旨在吸引和准备这些学生以满足这种国家需求。
