PROJECT SUMMARY The research community recognizes that current training of future faculty is inadequate, and understands the considerable benefits and need for diversity throughout academia and the biomedical workforce. The goals of this application are two-fold: (1) Train the next-generation of higher education faculty through a strongly mentored research program (75% effort), coupled to substantive training and experience in teaching (25% effort). (2) Increase the number of underrepresented minority (URM) students who ultimately become leaders in the biomedical research enterprises of Minnesota and beyond. Minnesota is poised at a moment of great opportunity. A wave of immigration two decades ago rapidly increased our population of Somali, Hmong and Latino citizens. Their children are now in our high schools and community colleges. If we are to enhance diversity in all enterprises within the State of Minnesota, we need to act now. The Training Research Educators in Minnesota (TREM) IRACDA program is part of the University of Minnesota's (U of M's) response to this opportunity. The University is partnering with three Minneapolis-St Paul community colleges. Student composition in these colleges is 28-46% NSF-defined racial and ethnic minority, and approximately 50% economically disadvantaged. TREM will enable our brightest postdocs in the biomedical sciences to have a balanced training in research and teaching. TREM scholars will devote 75% effort to their own research program, and will be mentored by 35 U of M faculty across a broad spectrum of biomedical disciplines. As well as research, TREM scholars will devote 25% effort to development of teaching skills. In combination, this will enable the scholars to become skilled research educators. TREM is a three year, full-time program with a 3:1 effort balance each year between research and teaching, respectively. Annually, three new scholars will be admitted to TREM, leading to a steady state of nine scholars when fully populated. In year 1, the scholars will take the Preparing Future Faculty program at the U of M, and during the summer will each host a community college URM student in a ten week, full-time research internship. In years 2 and 3, the scholars will work with an experienced teaching mentor for one semester to update and develop 1.5-2 credits of course material at the partner institutions, and gain substantive teaching experience in both classroom and laboratory environments. TREM's immediate goal is to tap into the diversity currently in our community colleges, whilst preparing superlative future faculty. In the long-term, we envisage TREM scholars become successful tenured faculty who inspire their students, whilst the TREM program as a whole will increase the number of Minnesota URM students who pursue postgraduate education and become leaders within the biomedical workforce. !

项目摘要 研究界认识到，当前对未来教师的培训不足，并且了解 整个学术界和生物医学劳动力的巨大好处和对多样性的需求。目标 该申请的两个方面有两个方面：（1）通过强烈的高等教育教师的下一代 指导的研究计划（75％的努力），加上实质性培训和教学经验（25％ 努力）。 （2）增加最终成为领导者的代表性不足的少数民族（URM）学生的数量 在明尼苏达州及其他地区的生物医学研究企业中。 明尼苏达州有一个巨大的机会。两十年前的移民浪潮迅速 增加了我们的索马里，苗族和拉丁裔公民的人口。他们的孩子现在在我们的高中， 社区学院。如果我们要增强明尼苏达州的所有企业的多样性，我们需要 立即行动。明尼苏达州的培训研究教育者（TREM）IRACDA计划是大学的一部分 明尼苏达州对这个机会的回应。该大学正在与三个明尼阿波利斯-ST合作 保罗社区学院。这些大学的学生组成为28-46％NSF定义的种族和种族 少数群体，在经济上处于不利地位，约有50％的人。 TREM将使我们在生物医学科学中最聪明的博士后能够接受平衡的培训 研究与教学。 TREM学者将为自己的研究计划投入75％的努力，并将 由35 U的M教师指导，遍及许多生物医学学科。以及研究，TREM 学者将投入25％的努力来发展教学技能。结合起来，这将使学者 成为熟练的研究教育者。 TREM是一个三年的全职计划，每个计划都有3：1的努力平衡 研究和教学之间的一年。每年，三名新学者将被接纳为TREM， 当人口充足时，导致九个学者的稳定状态。在第一年，学者将进行准备 U的U U未来教师计划，夏季将每个人都有一个社区大学URM学生 在十个星期的全日制研究实习中。在第2年和第3年，学者将与经验丰富的 一个学期的教学导师在合作伙伴中更新和开发1.5-2个学分 机构，并在课堂和实验室环境中获得实质性的教学经验。 trem的 直接目标是利用我们社区大学目前的多样性，同时准备高级 未来的教师。从长远来看，我们设想Trem学者成为成功的终身教师，他们激发了灵感 他们的学生，而整个TREM计划将增加明尼苏达州URM学生的数量 从事研究生教育，并成为生物医学员工的领导者。 呢
