Project Summary/Abstract The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health SA) is one of the nation’s leading Health Universities and is a chief catalyst for San Antonio’s $42 billion bioscience and health care industry, the leading sector of the largest minority (Latino)-majority city in the United States. The institution is committed in all its missions to diversity, inclusive excellence and accessibility. The Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences is one of the five component schools and has 21 graduate programs. The flagship doctoral program is the Integrated Biomedical Sciences (IBMS) Program that has strategically progressed from 6 departmental programs, through a transitional umbrella program, and finally to its current state of a truly single, integrated, multidisciplinary program. It is the IBMS program serves as the pool of underrepresented (UR) students that have fed two rounds of the current IMSD R25 and will continue to be the feeder for the new IMSD (T32) program. This proposal builds upon a highly successful intervention program that has resulted in exceptional metrics. These include UR representation increasing from 17% to 39% in the last decade, and parity with non-UR trainees in average publications (5) and retention (96%). Time to degree for UR, while shorter than the national average, remains lagging behind the general IBMS population, likely due to the focus on scientific output. Undergirded by an asset-based theoretical framework of action that integrates Social Cognitive Career Theory and Community Cultural Wealth, our strategies in recruitment, research training, faculty development, and career exploration, will serve to extend our successes and strengthen our contributions to diversity in the biomedical sciences workforce. Enhanced focus and support related to timely translation of progress into written outputs (fellowship applications, manuscripts, dissertation etc.) will shorten the time to degree. By the end of this cycle, we are optimistic we can reach our original goal of graduating a culturally diverse, yet scientifically-uniform, pool of IBMS (including IMSD UR) students all of whom, by virtue of this diversity, empowering training experience, and innovative co-curricular activities, are exceptional in their professional skills and attributes and positioned for career success and leadership in the biomedical sector.

项目摘要/摘要 圣安东尼奥大学（UT Health SA）的德克萨斯大学健康科学中心是美国领先的 卫生大学，是圣安东尼奥420亿美元生物科学和卫生保健行业的主要催化剂， 美国最大的少数民族（拉丁美洲） - 杂草城市的主要领域。该机构在所有人中犯下 它对多样性，包容性卓越和可及性的任务。生物医学研究生院是 五个组成学校之一，拥有21个研究生课程。旗舰博士课程是 综合生物医学科学（IBMS）计划从6个部门进行了战略性发展 通过过渡伞计划，最终达到了真正单一的，整合， 多学科计划。这是IBM计划充当代表性不足的学生（UR）学生 喂了当前IMSD R25的两轮，并将继续成为新的IMSD（T32）计划的收益。 该提案建立在一项非常成功的干预计划的基础上，该计划导致了卓越的指标。 其中包括在过去的十年中，UR的代表性从17％增加到39％，以及与Non-ur Traches的均等 在平均出版物（5）和保留率中（96％）。 UR学位的时间比全国平均水平短， 仍然落后于一般IBMS人口，这可能是由于关注科学产出。由 基于资产的理论行动框架，将社会认知职业理论与社区整合在一起 文化财富，我们在招聘，研究培训，教师发展和职业探索方面的策略， 将扩大我们的成功并加强我们对生物医学多样性的贡献 劳动力。增强了与及时将进度转化为书面输出（奖学金）有关的重点和支持 申请，手稿，论文等）将缩短时间。到这个周期结束时，我们是 乐观的我们可以实现我们的最初目标，即毕业的文化潜水员，但科学统一的IBMS池 （包括IMSD UR）学生所有的学生，凭借这种多样性，增强培训经验，并 创新的课外活动，其专业技能和属性是非凡的，并且位于 生物医学领域的职业成功和领导才能。
