Project Summary/Abstract The MARC program at the University of California, Irvine UCI) is a critical component of the School of Biological Sciences Minority Science Programs (MSP) to increase the number and academic excellence of underrepresented undergraduates pursuing Ph.D. degrees and careers in biomedical research. The MARC program has had a transformative institutional impact by preparing an unprecedented number of underrepresented undergraduates that have obtained research doctorate degrees in biomedical sciences. MARC activities are designed to introduce participants to biomedical research, improve the academic preparedness and interest of participants in biomedical research. MARC scholars are introduced to the excitement of generating new biomedical knowledge in a nurturing environment that stimulates their critical thinking skills, self-confidence and increases students’ self-identity as scientists. Independent research conducted under the direction of faculty mentors at UCI and at partner extramural sites serve as a core element to induce MARC scholars to pursue graduate school and research-focused careers. Over 70 faculty with experience training underrepresented undergraduates and with funded research programs serve as preceptors of MARC scholars. The MARC research training elements are integrated with the undergraduate curriculum and include, 1) individual career and academic advising, 2) a research faculty seminar series, 3) a journal club to introduce scholars to critical reading of current biomedical literature, 4) training in genomics, computational biology, statistics and methods to enhance reproducibility, 5) training in responsible conduct of research, 6) independent research directed by faculty mentors, 7) preparation to present oral presentations and posters at local and national conferences, 8) training in scientific communications, 9) workshops on application to graduate school, and 10) individual advice during the graduate school application process.

项目概要/摘要 加州大学欧文分校 (UCI) 的 MARC 项目是该学院的重要组成部分 生物科学少数派科学计划（MSP），以增加数量和学术卓越性 攻读生物医学研究博士学位和职业的本科生人数不足。 MARC 计划通过准备前所未有的数量，产生了变革性的机构影响。 获得生物医学科学研究博士学位的本科生人数不足。 MARC活动旨在向参与者介绍生物医学研究，提高学术水平 介绍了 MARC 学者对生物医学研究参与者的准备和兴趣。 在激发他们的培养环境中产生新的生物医学知识的兴奋 批判性思维能力、自信并提高学生作为独立科学家的自我认同。 在加州大学尔湾分校 (UCI) 教师导师和校外合作伙伴的指导下进行的研究 吸引 MARC 学者攻读研究生和以研究为重点的职业的核心要素。 70 名教师拥有培训代表性不足的本科生并拥有资助研究项目的经验 作为 MARC 学者的导师，MARC 研究培训要素与 MARC 相结合。 本科课程，包括：1）个人职业和学术建议，2）研究人员 研讨会系列，3）向学者介绍当前生物医学文献的批判性阅读的期刊俱乐部，4） 基因组学、计算生物学、统计学和增强再现性方法的培训，5) 培训 负责任地进行研究，6) 由教师导师指导的独立研究，7) 准备 在地方和国家会议上进行口头报告和海报，8) 科学培训 沟通，9) 研究生院申请研讨会，以及 10) 期间的个人建议 研究生院申请流程。
