项目摘要

ABSTRACT The U.S. is facing a biomedical workforce crisis, exacerbated by insufficient diversity among individuals entering the career path, starting with attrition from STEM majors in undergraduate training. The result, particularly for diseases that disparately impact minority and underserved populations, is a lack of innovative solutions to advance health outcomes. Chronic kidney disease and end stage kidney disease disproportionately affect African Americans and represent a substantial medical and economic burden in the U.S., with annual management costs estimated at $120 billion. Duke University is uniquely positioned to address this critical problem by building a robust, diverse, and sustainable pipeline of future academic biomedical scientists. Our recently established Office of Physician Scientist Development (OPSD) offers a sustainable structure for mentorship, professional development, and research funding. By leveraging this institutional structure, we are well positioned to support the development, implementation, and evaluation of a program that links resources across the training spectrum to introduce undergraduate students to varied research career opportunities, while preparing senior trainees transitioning to faculty positions to become strong independent investigators skilled in mentoring students from diverse backgrounds. To address the biomedical workforce gap, we propose the Paired Undergraduate Mentoring Program (PUMP) in Uronephrology, which will recruit diverse cohorts of undergraduate students and expose them to research skills-building and mentored research experiences in urology and nephrology. We will provide evidence-based professional development activities targeting both the student participants and the trainees who will serve as the day-to-day research project mentors. Duke PUMP will achieve our long-term goal, addressing barriers that limit the recruitment and retention of a diverse uronephrology workforce, through intensive research experiences, structured triangular mentorship, and sustained virtual engagement. The program focuses on 1) implementing a mentored summer research enrichment program to develop interest in uronephrology research careers among a diverse cohort of rising junior and senior undergraduates; 2) preparing next-generation uronephrology investigators to mentor a diverse biomedical workforce by training graduate students and postdoctoral associates in mentorship and providing them critical experience leading student research projects; and 3) preparing a diverse cohort of undergraduates for post-graduate training and entry into uronephrology research careers through sustained engagement that extends and enriches the summer research program experience. Successful implementation of the proposed program will lead to a scalable model for development of a robust pipeline for a diverse biomedical research workforce across disciplines.

抽象的美国正面临生物医学劳动力危机，进入该行业的个人多样性不足加剧了这一危机职业道路，从本科生培训中 STEM 专业的流失开始。结果，特别是对于疾病对少数群体和服务不足人群的影响不同，原因在于缺乏创新的解决方案促进健康成果。慢性肾病和终末期肾病不成比例地影响非裔美国人在美国构成了巨大的医疗和经济负担，每年管理费用估计为1200亿美元。杜克大学在解决这一关键问题上具有独特的优势通过建立一个强大的、多样化的、可持续的未来学术生物医学科学家管道来解决这个问题。我们的最近成立的医师科学家发展办公室 (OPSD) 为以下领域提供了可持续的结构：指导、专业发展和研究经费。通过利用这种制度结构，我们能够很好地支持链接资源的计划的开发、实施和评估跨培训范围向本科生介绍各种研究职业机会，同时准备高级学员过渡到教职职位，成为擅长以下领域的强大独立调查员指导来自不同背景的学生。为了解决生物医学劳动力缺口，我们建议泌尿肾病学本科生配对指导计划（PUMP），将招募不同的群体本科生，让他们接触研究技能建设和指导研究经验泌尿外科和肾脏病学。我们将提供基于证据的专业发展活动，针对学生参与者和将担任日常研究项目导师的学员。杜克泵将实现我们的长期目标，解决限制招聘和保留多元化人才的障碍泌尿肾病学队伍，通过深入的研究经验、结构化的三角指导，以及持续的虚拟参与。该计划的重点是 1）实施指导性夏季研究丰富计划，旨在培养不同群体的新兴人群对泌尿肾病学研究职业的兴趣大三和大四本科生； 2) 培养下一代泌尿肾病学研究人员来指导多元化的研究人员通过对研究生和博士后进行指导培训并提供生物医学劳动力他们领导学生研究项目的重要经验； 3）培养多元化的本科生通过持续参与进行研究生培训和进入泌尿肾病学研究职业扩展并丰富了暑期研究项目的经验。成功实施建议该计划将带来一个可扩展的模型，用于为多样化的生物医学研究开发强大的管道跨学科的劳动力。
