项目摘要
PROJECT ABSTRACT
We seek NINDS R25 funding for the Blazer BRAIN (Broadening Representation And Inclusion in Neuroscience)
Program at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). Although the number of U.S. citizens from
underrepresented minority (URM) groups earning doctoral degrees in science has increased over the past
decade, URMs continue to represent a small proportion of the scientists in the United States. Our UAB Blazer
BRAIN Program is a summer research experience that targets the obstacles impeding success with the goal of
increasing the number of trainees from diverse backgrounds in neuroscience research. We will recruit talented
undergraduates from our five partner HBCU institutions in AL, and nationally with a focus on the southeast
region. We aim to expose Blazer BRAIN undergraduate Scholars to research on the healthy nervous system
and neurological disease at UAB in laboratories of our federally funded faculty mentors. With continued
investment in Neuroscience at UAB by the School of Medicine and the Comprehensive Neuroscience Center,
the future of the Blazer BRAIN program is secure, and Scholars will benefit from the vibrant neuroscience
environment at UAB that currently exceeds $60M in NIH funding, with approximately $24M of that from NINDS.
The Blazer BRAIN Program will include career advising by the Program directors and research faculty mentors.
In addition, the Blazer BRAIN Program will partner with the NIH R25-funded UAB Roadmap Scholars (RMS)
Program, which also aims to promote diversity in neuroscience research but at the graduate level, by matching
Blazer BRAIN Scholars with RMS Aspirational Mentors (RAMs), to allow our Scholars to “see themselves” as
scientists in biomedical research careers. Blazer BRAIN Scholars will also be invited to attend the RMS NEURAL
conference, held every summer at UAB. Other value-added components of the Blazer BRAIN Program include
learning from their mentors about careers and work life balance as a neuroscientist at a major biomedical
research university; improvement of scientific communication skills; opportunities to present research at a
regional (UAB Summer Research EXPO) and national (ABRCMS, SACNAS or SfN) meeting; and assistance in
preparing applications for graduate school. Our primary goal for the initial funding period is to demonstrate
minimum 60% acceptance rate of Blazer BRAIN Scholars to PhD Programs. A rigorous evaluation plan is place
with metrics designed to achieve this success, with input to be received from Blazer BRAIN Scholars, mentors,
and internal and external advisory committees. If successful, the UAB Blazer BRAIN Program will increase
diversity in neuroscience research, and in turn promote the development of a richly diverse workforce in the
biomedical sciences.
项目摘要
我们为 Blazer BRAIN(扩大神经科学的代表性和包容性)寻求 NINDS R25 资金
阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校(UAB)的项目虽然来自美国公民的数量。
过去,获得科学博士学位的少数群体(URM)有所增加
十年来,URM 仍然只占美国科学家的一小部分。
BRAIN 计划是一项夏季研究体验,旨在克服阻碍成功的障碍,其目标是
我们将招募来自不同背景的神经科学研究人才。
来自阿拉巴马州和全国(重点是东南部)五个 HBCU 合作机构的本科生
我们的目标是让 Blazer BRAIN 本科生学者参与健康神经系统的研究。
和神经系统疾病在阿拉巴马大学联邦资助的教师导师的实验室继续进行。
医学院和综合神经科学中心对阿拉巴马大学神经科学的投资,
Blazer BRAIN 计划的未来是有保障的,学者们将受益于充满活力的神经科学
UAB 的环境目前获得 NIH 资助超过 6000 万美元,其中约 2400 万美元来自 NINDS。
Blazer BRAIN 计划将包括项目主管和研究教师导师提供的职业建议。
此外,Blazer BRAIN 计划将与 NIH R25 资助的 UAB 路线图学者 (RMS) 合作
该计划还旨在促进神经科学研究的多样性,但在研究生阶段,通过匹配
Blazer BRAIN 学者与 RMS 志向导师 (RAM),让我们的学者“将自己视为”
Blazer BRAIN 学者也将被邀请参加 RMS NEURAL。
Blazer BRAIN 计划的其他增值部分包括每年夏天在 UAB 举行的会议。
作为一名大型生物医学神经科学家,向导师学习职业和工作与生活的平衡
研究型大学;提高科学沟通技巧;
区域(UAB 夏季研究博览会)和国家(ABRCMS、SACNAS 或 SfN)会议和协助;
准备研究生院申请 我们初始资助期的主要目标是证明。
Blazer BRAIN 学者博士项目的录取率至少为 60% 制定了严格的评估计划。
旨在实现这一成功的指标,以及来自 Blazer BRAIN 学者、导师的意见,
如果成功,UAB Blazer BRAIN 计划将会增加。
神经科学研究的多样性,反过来又促进了丰富多样化的劳动力的发展
生物医学科学。
