This is a competing renewal application for a short-term research education program originally funded as a T35 in 2000 and as an R25 in 2010. Our major objective is to continue providing annual short-term research education experiences for highly motivated students from under-represented backgrounds in order to expose them to biomedical research in the area of pulmonary and cardiovascular disease. Locally known as GEMS (Graduate Experiences for Multicultural Students), over the past 10 years, >138 undergraduate (UG) and 29 health professional students (HPS); >125 supported by the R25 and the rest supported by other programs. Collectively, these students have published 93 manuscripts; >70% have earned terminal degrees, are working in science or health-related fields or are still enrolled in school. More than 70% of student participants were under-represented ethnic minorities. The program builds upon our established infrastructure and uses the significant strengths of one of the top pulmonary medicine programs in the country. We continue the tradition of addressing the pipeline by requesting 10 undergraduate and 4 health professional student slots. Here, in addition to the usual didactic and hands-on research activities, we will use the model of academic “coaches” who are not intended to supplant the mentor, but rather complement this relationship. Coaches will be past GEMS participants who are still at Anschutz Medical Campus. Coaches will maintain contact with the students throughout the year and will guide them through a successful career path. Furthermore, to ensure student success, we propose to use social science approaches and provide the students with a toolkit that will create an environment, a community of practice, where they feel safe to talk about personal, academic and professional issues and to bond through shared norms and values. We will also implement implicit bias workshops and mentoring best practices for students and mentors. We incorporate a set of targeted questions in the application that will aid in selection of students highly motivated to pursue biomedical research. We believe that these approaches will continue the GEMS tradition of excellence in training students from under-represented backgrounds while at the same time enhancing student’s academic success beyond the summer GEMS internship.

这是最初以T35资助的短期研究教育计划的竞争续订申请 在2000年，作为2010年的R25。我们的主要目标是继续提供年度短期研究 来自代表性不足的背景的高度积极进取的学生的教育经验，以便暴露 他们从事肺部和心血管疾病领域的生物医学研究。本地称为宝石 （多元文化学生的研究生经验），在过去的10年中，> 138本大学（UG）和29 卫生专业学生（HPS）； > 125由R25支持和其他程序支持。 这些学生共同出版了93份手稿。 > 70％的终端学位，正在工作 在科学或与健康有关的领域或仍在上学。超过70％的学生参与者是 代表性不足的少数民族。该计划建立在我们已建立的基础架构上，并使用 该国顶级肺医学计划之一的重要优势。我们继续传统 通过要求10个本科生和4个卫生专业学生老虎机来解决管道。在这里，此外 对于通常的教学和动手研究活动，我们将使用不是 旨在取代精神，而是完成这种关系。教练将过去的宝石 仍在安苏兹医疗校园的参与者。教练将与学生保持联系 全年，将指导他们走过成功的职业道路。此外，要确保学生 成功，我们建议使用社会科学方法，并为学生提供一种工具包 环境，一个实践社区，他们可以安全地谈论个人，学术和专业 问题并通过共同的规范和价值观结合。我们还将实施隐性偏见研讨会和 指导学生和导师的最佳实践。我们在应用程序中纳入了一组目标问题 这将有助于选择高度动力从事生物医学研究。我们相信这些 方法将延续卓越的宝石传统，以训练来自代表性不足的学生 背景同时增强了夏季宝石以外的学生的学术成功 实习。
