项目摘要

Abstract This is a renewal of our successful 2013-2017 PREP program. Of our 26 PREP scholars who completed training, 19 are currently enrolled in top-ranked biomedical Ph.D. programs throughout the country. Three of these scholars, received prestigious NSF graduate fellowships. Two additional scholars received coveted graduate fellowships at the University Wisconsin. In this renewal application, we plan to maintain the same class size, admitting yearly cohorts of 7 post- baccalaureate scholars from underserved and underrepresented minority populations. While great strides have been made over the past 20 years toward the goal of increasing participation of underrepresented groups in science programs at the undergraduate level, similar increases have not been realized at the doctoral level. The UC Santa Cruz PREP program is well suited to meet this urgent national need to expand diversity and increase participation of under-represented minority students in Biomedical Ph.D. programs. The outstanding research environment at UC Santa Cruz will provide PREP scholars with state-of-the-art resources and faculty who are leaders in their disciplines. Our scholars will also benefit from UCSC’s experience and outstanding success in the training of minority students. We are particularly proud of the fact that 140 of our MARC and IMSD students have been awarded a PhD in the Biomedical Sciences. Our PREP program will draw upon the resources of this rich teaching and research environment. PREP scholars will participate in intensive mentoring and professional development programs that enhance their ability to gain admission to highly competitive doctoral programs. By training new professionals in cutting-edge research, the PREP program will help advance the UC mission of equity and excellence and enhance our university’s position as a world leader in scientific and technological discovery. PREP faculty and staff will collaborate with campus diversity partners, the Division of Graduate Studies, the Division of Physical and Biological Sciences, the Jack Baskin School of Engineering, and the Office of the Chancellor to ensure the success of the program by creating a welcoming environment for all members of the UCSC PREP community. !

抽象的这是我们 26 名 PREP 学者成功的 2013-2017 年 PREP 项目的更新。完成培训后，目前有 19 人正在就读全美顶尖的生物医学博士课程。其中三名学者获得了另外两项著名的国家科学基金会研究生奖学金。在这次更新中，学者们获得了威斯康星大学令人垂涎的研究生奖学金。申请时，我们计划保持相同的班级规模，每年招收 7 名毕业后的学生来自服务不足和代表性不足的少数群体的学士学位学者。过去 20 年来，我们在提高人们参与度的目标方面取得了长足进步本科阶段科学课程中代表性不足的群体，类似的增长并没有加州大学圣克鲁斯分校的 PREP 项目非常适合满足这一目标。国家迫切需要扩大多样性并增加代表性不足的少数群体的参与加州大学圣克鲁斯分校出色的研究环境将为攻读生物医学博士学位的学生提供帮助。为 PREP 学者提供最先进的资源和在各自学科中处于领先地位的教师。我们的学者还将受益于 UCSC 在培训学生方面的经验和杰出成功我们特别自豪的是，我们有 140 名 MARC 和 IMSD 学生。已获得生物医学博士学位。我们的 PREP 计划将借鉴这个丰富的教学和研究环境的资源，学者们将参加密集的活动。指导和专业发展计划，增强他们获得录取的能力通过培养尖端研究领域的新专业人员，竞争激烈的博士课程。 PREP 计划将有助于推进 UC 的公平和卓越使命，并增强我们的大学在科学和技术发现方面处于世界领先地位。将与校园多元化合作伙伴、研究生部、物理和生物科学、杰克·巴斯金工程学院和办公室校长将通过为所有人创造一个欢迎的环境来确保该计划的成功 UCSC PREP 社区的成员。！
