项目摘要

The goal of the proposed Meharry RISE program is to significantly increase the number of minority students pursuing biomedical and behavioral sciences research careers by involving them in a program of excellence. Meharry Medical College has a strong record of graduating Ph.D.s in biomedical science disciplines, many of whom enter academic institutions where they continue the tradition of teaching, research and service that is a part of our mission. The College as a whole has a proven commitment to educating underrepresented minorities. Since 1972, the Graduate School has awarded 281 Ph.D.s in Biomedical Sciences. Therefore, it has a proven record of preparing students for research careers with a strong focus in diseases that disproportionally affect minorities. The RISE program, has supported 172 students since 1999 and so far, 92 scholars graduated with a PhD. The RISE program has contributed to the development of our students by providing competent research training coupled with excellent education opportunities. Continuing funding of the Meharry RISE program will allow us, together with other programs at Meharry, to provide the infrastructure and activities needed to continue to graduate more minorities in biomedical and behavioral science at the doctoral level. Three specific aims are proposed in the current RISE application: 1) Provide excellent research training for URM students to successfully complete requirements for the Ph.D. degree; 2) Provide students with a career development curriculum to strengthen the research career continuum of our trainees through the RISE Career Development Office; 3) Strengthen the relationship between mentors and mentees in order to enhance the graduate training experience. A set of well-defined activities has been developed to help transition Ph.D. students into research careers in biomedical sciences. These activities involve enhancement of student training with specialty courses such Advances in Molecular Biology as well as Bioinformatics/Big Data, development of a career development curriculum, as well as research opportunities in the training areas of the RISE Ph.D. students. The overall objective of the Meharry RISE program is to provide students in the Graduate School at Meharry Medical College with enhanced opportunities to ensure their transition to successful and productive research careers.

拟议的 Meharry RISE 计划的目标是显着提高从事生物医学和行为科学研究的少数族裔学生数量通过让他们参与卓越计划来发展职业生涯。梅哈里医学院在生物医学博士毕业生方面拥有良好的记录科学学科，其中许多人进入学术机构继续研究教学、研究和服务的传统是我们使命的一部分。学院作为 Whole 已证明致力于教育代表性不足的少数群体。自1972年以来，研究生院已授予 281 名生物医学博士学位。因此，它有在为学生的研究生涯做好准备方面拥有良好的记录，重点关注不成比例地影响少数群体的疾病。 RISE计划，已支持172个自1999年开始招生至今，已有92名学者获得博士学位。 RISE计划通过提供有力的研究为我们学生的发展做出了贡献培训加上良好的教育机会。 Meharry RISE 计划的持续资助将使我们能够与其他机构一起梅哈里的计划，以提供继续进行所需的基础设施和活动让更多少数族裔获得生物医学和行为科学博士学位。当前的 RISE 应用提出了三个具体目标： 1) 提供为 URM 学生提供出色的研究培训，以成功完成以下要求博士学位程度; 2）为学生提供职业发展课程通过 RISE Career 加强学员的研究职业连续性发展办公室； 3）加强导师与学员之间的关系以提升研究生培养体验。已经开发了一系列明确的活动来帮助过渡博士学位。学生进入生物医学科学研究生涯。这些活动涉及加强学生培训专业课程，如分子生物学进展以及生物信息学/大数据、职业发展课程的开发以及 RISE 博士培训领域的研究机会学生。 Meharry RISE 项目的总体目标是为学生提供梅哈里医学院研究生院提供更多机会确保他们向成功且富有成效的研究生涯的过渡。
