 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of the proposed Fisk- UIUC KnowEnG R25 program is to recruit and retain a cadre of under-represented minority scientists prepared to compete for PhD training in biomedical research with already acquired confidence in the use of Big Data. The proposed partnership with the KnowEnG BD2K Center at UIUC will permit curricular enhancements and summer research opportunities for Fisk trainees while, at the same time, reciprocally training natural scientists and mathematics majors in complementary computer and informatics sciences and providing computer science and mathematics undergraduates with essential systems, molecular and cell biology/biochemistry background at Fisk University to provide context for cutting edge genomics, proteomics, and individualized medicine research reliant on Big Data. In addition to curricular and research training program elements, Fisk students will have remote access to seminar courses to increase efficacy in communicating BD2K-based technologies and their applications. Didactic work and undergraduate research experiences will be complemented by an individualized student development plan for honing professional skills, deep understanding of the responsible conduct of research, and wrap-around mentoring to assure subsequent successful entry into competitive BD2K aligned PhD-granting programs. UIUC-hosted summer workshops for faculty will increase confidence in use of Big Data tools, leading to innovations in STEM courses that embrace Big Data, impacting all Fisk STEM undergraduates. Research collaborations between Fisk and BD2K partner faculty also will be fostered. The aims to achieve the goals are: 1) Implement an integrated didactic program to enhance student self-efficacy with computational and informatics tool development and use for interrogating and interpreting Big Data, including a two-semester bioinformatics course in Bioinformatics, informed by the expertise of UIUC KnowEnG BD2K Center faculty with additional Special Topics courses available remotely from UIUC. 2) Develop an integrated academic year (Fisk, or partners) and summer research program at the UIUC KnowEnG BD2K Center to assure student exposure to a participation in the life cycle of a `Big Data' research problem. 3) Implement a professional skills development program that assures successful transition of undergraduate participants to a Ph.D. (or MD/PhD Program) in Big Data- reliant biomedical research. 4) Launch a faculty development program in bioinformatics that leads to embracing Big Data problems in courses in multiple disciplines for impact on all Fisk undergraduate STEM majors. The proposed program will increase both didactic and research experiences in Big Data for Fisk University undergraduates while preparing them for successful entry into PhD-granting programs in related disciplines at research intensive universities. Our KnowEnG partnership also will increase Fisk faculty capacity in Big Data use and foster faculty research collaborations, thus introducing Big Data into course-embedded research, impacting all Fisk University STEM Majors. Reciprocally, our KnowEnG UIUC faculty partners will enrich their holistic mentoring skills of URM trainees based on interactions with Fisk R25 mentors, of value for their broader education and research training goals at UIUC and Mayo.

 描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的 Fisk-UIUC KnowEnG R25 计划的总体目标是招募和留住一批代表性不足的少数族裔科学家，他们准备好竞争生物医学研究的博士培训，并且已经对使用大数据有了信心拟议与 UIUC 的 KnowEnG BD2K 中心合作将为 Fisk 学员提供课程改进和暑期研究机会，同时相互培训自然。菲斯克大学的科学家和数学专业互补的计算机和信息科学，为计算机科学和数学本科生提供必要的系统、分子和细胞生物学/生物化学背景，为依赖大数据的尖端基因组学、蛋白质组学和个体化医学研究提供背景。除了课程和研究培训计划内容外，Fisk 学生还可以远程访问研讨会课程，以提高交流基于 BD2K 的技术及其应用的效率。教学工作和本科生研究经验将得到补充。磨练专业技能的个性化学生发展计划、对负责任的研究行为的深入理解以及确保随后成功进入具有竞争力的 BD2K 一致博士授予项目的全面指导，将增强教师使用 BD2K 的信心。大数据工具将推动包含大数据的 STEM 课程的创新，影响所有 Fisk STEM 本科生，同时还将促进 Fisk 和 BD2K 合作伙伴教师之间的研究合作，以实现以下目标： 1) 实施。一个综合教学计划，通过计算和信息学工具的开发以及用于询问和解释大数据的使用来提高学生的自我效能，包括两学期的生物信息学生物信息学课程，以 UIUC KnowEnG BD2K 中心教师的专业知识为基础，并提供额外的专题课程2) 在 UIUC KnowEnG BD2K 中心制定一个综合学年（Fisk 或合作伙伴）和暑期研究计划，以确保学生参与“大数据”研究问题的生命周期 3）实施专业技能发展计划，确保本科生成功过渡到大数据博士（或医学博士/博士课程）。 4) 启动生物信息学教师发展计划，在多个学科的课程中引入大数据问题，以影响菲斯克大学所有 STEM 专业本科生的教学和研究经验。我们的 KnowEnG 合作伙伴关系还将提高 Fisk 教师使用大数据的能力并促进教师研究合作，从而将大数据引入课程嵌入式研究，从而影响本科生的成功进入研究密集型大学相关学科的博士学位授予项目。反过来，我们的 KnowEnG UIUC 教师合作伙伴将通过与 Fisk R25 导师的互动来丰富 URM 学员的整体指导技能，这对于他们更广泛的教育和研究培训目标具有价值。在 UIUC 和梅奥。
