DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall objective of this competing IMSD grant renewal from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) is to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups in biomedical and behavioral research who complete the PhD, advance to competitive postdoctoral and academic positions, and make scientific advances as researchers, leaders, and educators. Our overall objective will be met through the following specific goals and measures: 1) To ensure that IMSD Fellows' research rotations in year one, and final lab placement are not only with renowned faculty in prestigious research programs, but also with mentors who are supportive of new students and sensitive to unique issues facing many minority students; 2) To foster a sense of community among IMSD Fellows through group learning, social engagement, peer mentoring, group discussions with role models, and participation in community service, which will create a support network to promote the progression of the group as a whole; 3) To improve IMSD Fellows' academic development by developing strong writing, reading, and communication skills in order to boost their competitiveness for extramural fellowships; increase their number of research and first-authored publications; and maximize their research career success; 4) To facilitate Fellows' taking responsibility for their own career planning and development, by giving them tools and strategies to obtain a competitive postdoctoral position and academic appointment; 5) To integrate all IMSD Fellows into the IMSD Program throughout their PhD study, by providing mentoring, group activities, academic, and career support; and to nurture a mindset that will encourage IMSD Fellows to serve as mentors, lead by example, and support IMSD and similar programs throughout their academic careers. Robust evaluation of measurable objectives, milestones and outcomes will help create a more diverse population of future scientific leaders. The proposed project is closely aligned with the mission of the NIGMS/MORE/MBRS to create effective academic development programs to prepare students underrepresented in biomedical or behavioral science for research careers and leadership positions. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed program will broaden opportunities for underrepresented students to participate in biomedical and behavioral research and to successfully complete their PhD at UCSF. It is important for California to educate those who are more representative of our citizenry where minorities are in the majority. With multi-faceted support systems this proposed program will help create tomorrow's scientific leaders.

描述（由申请人提供）：从加州大学旧金山分校（UCSF）的这项竞争IMSD授予申请的总体目标是增加生物医学和行为研究中代表性不足的群体的学生人数，他们完成博士学位，晋升为有竞争力的产后和学术职位，并成为研究者，并成为研究者和教育者，并成为研究者和教育者。我们的整体目标将通过以下特定目标和措施来满足：1）确保IMSD研究员在第一年的研究轮换和最终的实验室安置不仅与著名的著名研究计划中的著名教师有关，还应支持那些支持新生和对许多少数少数学生面临的独特问题敏感的导师； 2）通过小组学习，社会参与，同伴指导，与榜样的小组讨论以及参与社区服务，以培养IMSD研究员之间的社区感，该组织将创建一个支持网络，以促进整个小组的发展； 3）通过发展强大的写作，阅读和沟通技巧来改善IMSD研究员的学术发展，以提高其对校外研究金的竞争力；增加了他们的研究数量和首次著名的出版物；并最大化他们的研究职业成功； 4）通过为他们提供工具和策略来获得竞争性的博士后职位和学术任命，以促进研究员对自己的职业计划和发展负责； 5）通过提供指导，小组活动，学术和职业支持，将所有IMSD研究员整合到IMSD计划中；并培养一种可以鼓励IMSD研究员作为导师的心态，以身作则，并在他们的学术职业中支持IMSD和类似计划。对可衡量目标，里程碑和成果的强有力评估将有助于创造更加多样化的未来科学领导者。拟议的项目与Nigms/More/MBR的使命非常一致，以创建有效的学术发展计划，以使学生在生物医学或行为科学领域的人数不足为研究职业和领导职位做好准备。 公共卫生相关性：拟议的计划将扩大代表性不足的学生参加生物医学和行为研究的机会，并成功地在UCSF完成博士学位。对于加利福尼亚来说，重要的是要教育那些更能代表我们公民的人。借助多方面的支持系统，该建议的计划将有助于创建明天的科学领导者。
