DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Attempts to support underrepresented minority (URM) students for education and careers in scientific research have had some success. Programs such Minority Opportunities in Research (MORE) sponsored by the National Institutes of Health Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIH-GMS) have been shown to increase the likelihood that URM students will continue successfully towards careers in biomedical science research (Barlow and Villarejo, 2004). However, until quite recently, very little research had been reported that addressed how intervention programs have their effects, information that could be used to enhance programs and scale up support efforts. In 2003, NIH-GMS began to fund basic research designed to understand the processes and effects of intervention programs under the "Efficacy of Interventions Promoting Entry into Biomedical Research Careers" initiative. The first grants awarded are now entering the fourth and final year of funded support, and other projects have been added to the cluster. There are now eleven projects under way. Timely analysis and synthesis of these research findings would go far to maximize the utility of this research for NIH policy and decision makers. The present proposal seeks funding to support an annual conference ("Annual Conference to Accelerate Research to Practice"), which will bring together, for a two-day conference, the principle investigators and other key research personnel who are grantee on this cluster. (There are currently eleven such grantees with an expectation of adding up to six more each year, with four to six grantees finishing each year.) During the conference, each grantee group will present a progress report on the group's research activities with an emphasis on key findings during the past year. After all groups have presented the principle investigators will meet, and with the facilitation of an expert consultant, will analyze and synthesize the collective body of findings presented with the goal of identifying replicable and significant findings across groups. The consultant (to be chosen) will have high levels of expertise in (a) the literature on efforts to support underrepresented minority (URM) students, (b) support program design, and (c) social and behavioral science research methodology. Following the conference, the R13 principle investigator and the consultant will co-author a report to the NIH-GMS leadership.

描述（由申请人提供）： 支持代表性不足的少数民族（URM）学生从事科学研究和职业的尝试取得了一定的成功。该计划由美国国立卫生研究院一般医学研究所（NIH-GM）赞助的少数研究机会（More）（More），已证明增加了URM学生将成功地从事生物医学科学研究的职业（Barlow and Villarejo，2004年）的可能性。但是，直到最近，很少有研究据报道，解决了干预计划如何具有其影响，这些信息可用于增强计划并扩大支持工作。 2003年，NIH-GM开始为基础研究提供资金，旨在了解“干预措施促进生物医学研究生涯的干预措施的功效”倡议的过程和影响。授予的第一笔赠款现在进入了资金支持的第四年也是最后一年，其他项目已添加到集群中。现在正在进行11个项目。这些研究发现的及时分析和综合将对NIH政策和决策者的这项研究的实用性最大化。 本提案寻求资金支持年度会议（“加速研究年度会议”），该会议将汇集为期两天的会议，即主要研究人员和其他主要研究人员，这些研究人员是该集群的受赠人。 （目前有11个这样的受赠人，期望每年再增加6个，每年有4至6个受赠人完成。 在会议期间，每个受赠人小组将介绍有关该小组研究活动的进度报告，重点是在过去的一年中。毕竟，所有小组都介绍了原则研究者将遇到的原则，并且随着专家顾问的促进，将分析和综合呈现的集体调查结果，目的是识别各组的可复制和重要发现。顾问（被选为）将在（a）支持代表性不足的少数群体（URM）学生的努力中具有很高的专业知识，（b）支持计划设计，以及（c）社会和行为科学研究方法。会议结束后，R13主要调查员和顾问将共同向NIH-GMS领导人共同撰写报告。
