项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract This GREAT Program will develop genomics opportunities for students at Prairie View A&M University (PVAMU) through a collaboration with Texas A&M University (TAMU) TAMU is one of the largest Hispanic-serving institutions in the United States with over 4000 students majoring in biomedical or biological sciences, and PVAMU is an HBCU comprised of 86% black students and >50% first generation students. While these institutions are separated by 40 miles, there have historically been few collaborations in the area of biomedical science. This program will develop a Course-based undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) focusing on using genomic and bioinformatic approaches to predict the function of unannotated genes. The CURE will be co- taught by PVAMU and TAMU faculty. Over the summer students will participate in research in a TAMU genomics lab. These research opportunities will be complemented by workshops, networking events, and other training opportunities. Together, the proposed program will foster critical thinking, self-empowerment, and provides students the skills and training necessary to enter PhD programs in genomics, or to enter the workforce in a genomics-related area. Taken together, this program will strengthen genomics programming at PVAMU, develop ties between the two universities, and promote diversity in genomic sciences.

项目摘要/摘要这个伟大的计划将为Prairie View A＆M的学生开发基因组学机会大学（PVAMU）通过与德克萨斯A＆M大学（TAMU）TAMU合作是美国最大的西班牙裔服务机构，主修4000多名学生生物医学或生物学科学，PVAMU是由86％的黑人学生组成的HBCU > 50％的第一代学生。尽管这些机构分开了40英里，但从历史上看，在生物医学科学领域很少合作。该程序将开发基于课程的本科研究经验（CURE），专注于使用基因组和生物信息学方法来预测未注释基因的功能。治疗将是共同的由PVAMU和TAMU教师任教。在夏季，学生将参加 TAMU基因组学实验室。这些研究机会将由研讨会补充，网络活动和其他培训机会。拟议的计划将共同培养批判性思维，自我授权，并为学生提供必要的技能和培训在基因组学中输入博士学位课程，或在与基因组相关的地区输入劳动力。拍摄该程序将加强在PVAMU的基因组编程，建立联系两所大学，并促进基因组科学的多样性。
