项目摘要

During FY22, NIMHD DIR supported and promoted diversity by engaging in our own diversity programs, funding other diversity initiatives across the NIH campus, and committee service activities related to NIH racial and ethnic equity and workforce diversity. In FY22, NIMHD DIR continued its two flagship programs to promote diversity, the NIMHD William G. Coleman Jr., PhD, Minority Health and Health Disparities Research Innovation Award and the NIMHD DIR Adjunct Investigator program. NIMHD DIR expanded its collaborative efforts to increase the diversity of the biomedical workforce by joining the partnership supporting the Inter-Institute Endocrinology Training Program (IETP) is a three-year training program that seeks to train internal medicine physicians to become first-rate endocrinologists dedicated to investigative careers. NIMHD DIR assisted with interviews and selection and is providing funding of one 3-year spot in the program for a fellow focused on health disparities. In addition, NIMHD DIR continued to fund and host three summer interns focused on health disparities research. Two are from the partnership we have with the NINDS Health Disparities in Tribal Communities Summer Internship Program, and one was a medical student from our partnership with the Eastern Virginia Medical School/Norfolk State University/NIMHD DIR that is working on student training and creating pathways to graduate/professional programs, faculty development and health disparities research for underrepresented students. NIMHD DIR also partnered with the NIH Office of Intramural Training and Education (OITE) NIH Academy on Health Disparities, contributing lectures and planning activities for the coming year. Diversity Scholar Program. During FY22, our new Tenure-Track Investigators (TTIs) who will start October 15, 2022, Dr. Jinani Jayasekera, was selected for the NIH Distinguished Scholars Program (DSP), which aims to foster a culture of diversity and inclusion at NIH using a cohort model. So far, all 6 of DIRs TTIs have been selected for the DSP (except for one who was hired before the program existed and is now a Senior Investigator) and are supporting workforce diversity at NIH as active members of this cohort model program. Inter-Institute Endocrinology Fellowship Program (IEFP). The IEFP is a 3-year Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-accredited training program that provides physicians and physician scientists with cutting-edge research and clinical endocrinology experiences. The program leaders are strongly committed to DEI and have invited NIMHD DIR to join. NIMHD is assisting with promotion of this opportunity and funded one 3-year slot for a trainee interested in health disparities research starting FY22. DEI-related Committee Service. DIR investigators are making tremendous contributions to DEI efforts at NIH through committee service. Four of our investigators participate on review committees (2 as Co-Chairs) for the NIH centralized Stadtman TTI search. In doing so, they are promoting the value of health disparities and minority health research at NIH and helping to bring diversity and inclusion to the forefront in consideration of candidates. Stadtman applicants are now required to submit a statement as part of their application that focuses on their mentoring philosophy and activities related to mentoring women and persons from underrepresented minority groups. Review committees are instructed also to include such details in their summary statements and ratings of candidates. This information is helpful to the NIH Scientific Directors (SDs) in hiring TTIs who are committed to DEIA. The Scientific Director continued to Co-Chair the N Committee of the NIH UNITE initiative focused on creating new research on minority health and health disparities and two NIMHD DIR investigators were founding members of the NIMHD Racial and Ethnic Equity Committee (REEC), Dr. Kelvin Choi (Co-Chair) and Dr. Leonardo Mario-Ramirez. The REEC has developed the NINHD Racial and Equity Plan, which specifies the objectives and activities of NIMHD related to racial and ethnic equity and DEIA more broadly. Dr. Kelvin Choi is Co-Chairing a new intramural Asian American Pacific Islander Health Scientific Interest Group (AAPI-HSIG) and the Health Disparities Interest Group at NIH. Dr. Npoles continued to serve on the MRSP Executive Steering Committee. Mentoring/training Activities. During FY22, NIMHD DIR served as the primary site for mentoring and training of a total of 41 trainees: 7 post-doctoral fellows, 2 pre-doctoral fellows, 21 post-baccalaureate fellows, 10 summer interns, and 1 medical research scholar program fellow. Two of the post-doctoral and one of the post-baccalaureate fellows were hosted by Dr. Shannon Zenks lab whose research program is hosted by NIMHD DIR. The overwhelming majority of these trainees were from underrepresented groups, e.g., African American, Latino, American Indian, South Asian, and most were women. Demand for traineeship opportunities within DIR has always exceeded capacity. Continued growth in the number of DIR investigators will help meet this demand.

在22财年期间，NIMHD DIR通过参与我们自己的多样性计划，资助NIH校园的其他多样性计划，以及与NIH种族和种族公平和劳动力多样性有关的委员会服务活动来支持和促进多样性。在22财年，NIMHD DIR继续其两个旗舰计划，以促进多样性，NIMHD William G. Coleman Jr.，博士，少数族裔健康与健康差异研究创新奖和NIMHD DIR辅助研究者计划。 NIMHD DIR通过加入支持Instute Intimentogy内分泌培训计划（IETP）的合作伙伴关系，扩大了其合作努力，以增加生物医学劳动力的多样性，这是一项为期三年的培训计划从事调查职业。 Nimhd Dir协助采访和选择，并为该计划提供了一项为专注于健康差异的研究员提供的3年席位。此外，Nimhd Dir继续为健康差异研究的三名暑期实习生提供资金。其中两个来自我们与部落社区中NINDS健康差异的合作伙伴关系，其中一位是我们与东部弗吉尼亚州医学院/诺福克州立大学/NIMHD DIR的合作伙伴关系的医学生，该大学正在研究学生培训并创建途径为了研究生/专业课程，教师发展和健康差异研究不足的学生。 Nimhd Dir还与NIH的室内培训和教育办公室（OETE）NIH健康差异学院合作，贡献了来年的讲座和计划活动。多样性学者计划。 2222年期间，我们将于2022年10月15日开始的新的终身轨道调查员（TTI）被选为NIH杰出学者计划（DSP）Jinani Jayasekera博士，该计划旨在促进NIH在NIH上的多样性和包容性文化队列模型。到目前为止，已为DSP选择了所有6个DIRS TTI（除了在该计划成立之前被录用并现在是高级调查员的人），并支持NIH的劳动力多样性作为该队列模型计划的活跃成员。内部内分泌学研究金计划（IEFP）。 IEFP是一个为期三年的研究生医学教育认证委员会（ACGME）认可的培训计划，为医生和医师科学家提供尖端的研究和临床内分泌学经验。计划领导人强烈致力于DEI，并邀请了Nimhd Dir加入。 NIMHD正在协助促进这一机会，并为一名对健康差异研究感兴趣的学员资助了一个3年的机会，从22财年开始。 DEI相关委员会服务。 DIR调查人员通过委员会服务为NIH的DEI努力做出了巨大贡献。我们的四名调查人员参加了NIH集中的Stadtman TTI搜索的审查委员会（2个联合主席）。通过这样做，他们正在促进NIH的健康差异和少数族裔健康研究的价值，并有助于考虑到候选人的多样性和包容性。现在要求Stadtman申请人提交一份声明，作为其申请的一部分，该声明重点介绍了他们的指导哲学和活动，这些活动与指导妇女和人数不足的少数群体的人有关。还指示审核委员会在其摘要声明和候选人评级中包括此类详细信息。这些信息对雇用致力于DEIA的TTI的NIH科学总监（SDS）有帮助。科学主任继续共同主席NIH Unite倡议委员会，着重于创建有关少数民族健康和健康差异的新研究，两名NIMHD DIR调查人员是NIMHD种族和种族公平委员会（REEC）的创始成员，Kelvin博士Kelvin博士Choi（联合主席）和Leonardo Mario-Ramirez博士。 REEC制定了NINHD种族和公平计划，该计划指定了NIMHD的目标和活动，与种族和族裔公平有关，以及更广泛地说。 Kelvin Choi博士正在共同主持NIH的新的亚裔岛屿岛内太平洋健康科学兴趣小组（AAPI-HSIG）和健康差异兴趣小组。 Npoles博士继续担任MRSP执行指导委员会。指导/培训活动。在22财年期间，Nimhd Dir是指导和培训总共41名学员的主要地点：7名博士后研究员，2名博物馆前研究员，21名后核后洞穴后的研究员，10名暑期实习生和1名医学研究学者计划研究员。两名后博士后和一名后库爵士研究员由Shannon Zenks Lab博士主持，其研究计划由NIMHD DIR主持。这些学员的绝大多数来自代表性不足的群体，例如非裔美国人，拉丁裔，美洲印第安人，南亚，大多数是妇女。 DIR内对实习机会的需求始终超出了能力。 DIR调查人员数量的持续增长将有助于满足这一需求。
