Project Summary In this new application we propose a unique training experience that builds upon Vanderbilt University's (VU) extraordinary record of research, training, and fostering diversity in biomedical science and that seeks to create a new paradigm promoting the pathway to biomedical science careers and aspirational life choices for a cadre of underrepresented, postbaccalaureate scholars. This program provides an intellectually, socially and culturally rewarding experience to engage scholars at multiple levels throughout a 12 month training program. We will leverage VU's training expertise to cultivate knowledge and research skills and provide an integrated training program that supports resilience by fostering connections among program participants and their research mentors, peers, and respective communities. A strong multiple-PI leadership team is composed of senior individuals with overlapping expertise in scientific research, mentoring, inclusion, skill development, trainee engagement, and fostering a community of diverse scholars. This team is supported by internal and external board members with demonstrated commitment to training and diversity. We will provide a research intensive immersion for carefully-selected scholars each year. Our pool of distinguished mentors have a diversity of research interests that are aligned with the mission of NIGMS. In addition to an intense, mentored research experience, we will offer unique perspectives and resources, provide a productive framework to fully understand the promise and process of scientific discovery, and foster invaluable connections among scholars and their mentors and communities. We posit that scholars, most especially those from underrepresented groups, must also be trained in how to relate their work to the larger community. They must be aware and knowledgeable of the forces shaping the public's perception of science and how to shape the scientific narrative in both underrepresented and majority communities. Our overall goal is ambitious and innovative; we seek to create scholars that will become the integrators needed to connect science with communities through their academic credentials, ability to build and retain trust, and cultural competence skills. We will fulfill this vision through: an intensive research and training immersion experience, with mentoring as a central component; regular opportunities to interact with their peers and acquire the core values of collaboration, teamwork and personal enrichment; and exposure to the public awareness of science, education, policy and social change. Together, we will thus provide an exciting and comprehensive experience to minority scholars poised to make career-defining, life- changing decisions with future implications for the scientific enterprise across the nation.

项目概要 在这个新应用程序中，我们提出了一种基于范德比尔特大学的独特培训体验 大学（VU）在生物医学研究、培训和促进多样性方面的非凡记录 科学并寻求创建一个新的范式，促进生物医学科学的道路 代表性不足的本科后学者干部的职业和理想的生活选择。 该项目提供了一种在智力、社交和文化上有益的体验 在为期 12 个月的培训计划中，获得多个级别的学者。我们将利用维多利亚大学的培训 培养知识和研究技能并提供综合培训计划的专业知识 通过促进项目参与者及其研究之间的联系来支持复原力 导师、同行和各自的社区。强大的多PI领导团队组成 由在科学研究、指导、包容性、技能方面具有重叠专业知识的资深人士组成 发展、学员参与以及培养多元化学者社区。这支球队是 得到内部和外部董事会成员的支持，并表现出对培训和培训的承诺 多样性。我们将为精心挑选的学者提供深入的研究研究 年。我们杰出的导师库拥有多种研究兴趣，这些兴趣与 NIGMS 的使命。除了紧张的、受指导的研究经验外，我们还将提供 独特的视角和资源，提供一个富有成效的框架来充分理解 科学发现的前景和过程，并在人们之间建立宝贵的联系 学者及其导师和社区。我们认为学者，尤其是那些 来自代表性不足的群体，还必须接受如何将他们的工作与更大的群体联系起来的培训 社区。他们必须意识到并了解塑造公众的力量 对科学的看法以及如何在代表性不足和 大多数社区。我们的总体目标是雄心勃勃、创新的；我们致力于培养学者 这将成为通过他们的能力将科学与社区联系起来所需的整合者 学历、建立和保持信任的能力以及文化能力。我们 将通过以下方式实现这一愿景： 深入的研究和培训沉浸式体验 指导作为核心组成部分；定期有机会与同龄人互动并获得知识 协作、团队合作和个人充实的核心价值观；以及向公众曝光 对科学、教育、政策和社会变革的认识。因此，我们将共同提供一个 为少数族裔学者提供令人兴奋和全面的经验，让他们能够定义职业生涯、生活 改变对全国科学事业未来影响的决策。
