项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Student-to-Scientist Bridge Program in Environmental Health Science (S2S Bridge) is an undergraduate research education program that responds to the need identified by NIEHS to increase the diversity of training programs for environmental health sciences and, by extension, the diversity of the environmental health science research workforce. Environmental health science addresses the relationship between human health and the environment, with a focus on the chemical, physical, and biological factors that affect human health and environmental quality. A partnership between California State University, Northridge (CSUN) and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Fielding School of Public Health, the S2S Bridge Program will leverage the diversity and student support resources of CSUN, together with UCLA's research expertise, to increase the number of URM students who apply to and succeed in gaining entry into masters and doctoral programs in the environmental health sciences. The S2S Bridge program will prepare 15 CSUN undergraduate URM students to enter and thrive in a research-intensive environmental health sciences graduate program. Specific aims are to: 1) Engage undergraduate CSUN URM students in an undergraduate research experience (URE) in UCLA environmental health science labs; 2) Develop a culturally responsive research education program in environmental health science for URM students based on their educational and research goals and provide academic and graduate school preparation and application support; 3) Provide formal mentoring by faculty members that is culturally competent to foster student success in the program and beyond; 4) Achieve a 100% application rate to graduate programs (masters or doctoral) in environmental health science among program participants; and 5) Achieve an 80% acceptance rate into a graduate program (masters or doctoral) in environmental health science among program participants. The S2S Bridge program will foster and enhance the early experiences of young scientists and increase the diversity of the future cadre of environmental health science researchers. It also supports the broader goal and significant focus of NIH to promote diversification of the biomedical research workforce. Ultimately, by engaging diverse research perspectives, the project will help develop a better understanding of the environmental contributions to health disparities so that these disparities can be addressed, reduced and finally eliminated.

描述（由申请人提供）：环境健康科学学生与科学家的桥梁计划（S2S Bridge）是一项本科生研究教育计划，旨在满足 NIEHS 确定的增加环境健康科学培训计划多样性的需求，此外，环境健康科学研究队伍的多样性也涉及人类健康与环境之间的关系，重点关注影响人类健康和环境质量的化学、物理和生物因素。州立大学，北岭大学 (CSUN) 和加州大学洛杉矶分校 (UCLA) 菲尔丁公共卫生学院的 S2S 桥梁计划将利用 CSUN 的多样性和学生支持资源，以及 UCLA 的研究专业知识，以增加 URM 学生的数量申请并成功进入环境健康科学硕士和博士项目 S2S Bridge 项目将为 15 名 CSUN 本科生 URM 学生做好进入研究密集型环境健康科学研究生项目并取得成功的准备。目标是： 1) 让 CSUN URM 本科生在 UCLA 环境健康科学实验室进行本科生研究体验 (URE)； 2) 根据 URM 学生的教育和研究目标，制定环境健康科学领域的文化响应研究教育计划，并提供学术和研究生院准备和申请支持； 3) 由具有文化能力的教员提供正式指导，以促进学生在课程及其他课程中取得成功 4) 实现研究生课程（硕士或硕士）的申请率项目参与者中环境健康科学博士）；以及 5）项目参与者中环境健康科学研究生课程（硕士或博士）的录取率达到 80% S2S Bridge 项目将培养和增强年轻科学家的早期经验。并增加未来环境健康科学研究人员队伍的多样性，它还支持美国国立卫生研究院促进生物医学研究队伍多元化的更广泛目标和重点，最终，通过吸收不同的研究观点，该项目将有助于更好地理解。的环境对健康差异的影响，以便能够解决、减少这些差异，并最终被淘汰。
