 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The number of Ph.D. students from diverse backgrounds is acutely underrepresented in biomedical and behavioral sciences in the United States despite the growing proportions of minorities in the population. Through participation in several underrepresented minority (UR)-focused mentoring programs, the Science Training for Advancing Biomedical Research (STAR)-PREP director brings unique insights (from a mentee's perspective) and a great understanding of the attributes required for being a successful mentor. This STAR- PREP is designed to provide aspiring UR biomedical scientists with a specialized but comprehensive training plan. Highly functional and dynamic individual development plans (IDP) will be employed to address the Scholars' weaknesses and strengthen their skills to increase their competitiveness leading to acceptance into top-notch Ph.D. or M.D.-Ph.D. programs. We will take advantage of ongoing interactions with local UR- centered undergraduate programs and with various established programs including T32 grants on campus by incorporating into IDPs regular participation in T32-funded training activities. Our hypothesis is that active participation in an integrated multidimensional research, clinical and mentored research training program coupled with innovations in academic development will result in greater than 75% of PREP Scholars pursuing biomedical research careers. Aim 1 is to ensure an outstanding biomedical research experience to build and refine the STAR-PREP Scholar's research skills. This will be accomplished through use of a diverse community of outstanding faculty and students, state-of-the-art technologies and innovations in interdisciplinary education and training in an atmosphere that explicitly emphasizes excellence and biomedical research. Aim 2 is to strengthen and expand the STAR-PREP Scholar's academic portfolio to facilitate acceptance into a top-notch graduate program. This aim will also support and guide the PREP Scholar thru every step of the graduate school application process, prepare the Scholar for the GRE test and provide direct experience in select Ph.D. courses. Through Aim 3, we will provide a set of high- quality professional development activities individualized for each STAR-PREP Scholar. PREP Scholars will participate in a variety of research poster presentation forums, scientific writing workshops, diversity seminars and attend/present at a national science conference. Aim 4 will provide a continuous dynamic mentoring and community-building research-centered experience. Through this aim we propose to establish a sense of community through social and academic activities between Scholars, mentors and Ph.D. students. The success of each of our aims will be regularly assessed through individual diagnostic assessment tools administered by internal and external evaluators to ensure a positive and meaningful experience to successfully transition Scholars to graduate programs.

 描述（由适用提供）：博士学位的数量。来自潜水员背景的学生在美国的生物医学和行为科学中的人数急性不足，尽管人口中少数群体的比例越来越多。通过参与几个人数不足的少数民族（UR）的心理计划，前进的生物医学研究（Star） - PRP主任的科学培训带来了独特的见解（从受训者的角度来看），并对成功精神的属性有很好的了解。该星级旨在为有抱负的生物医学科学家提供专门但全面的培训计划。将采用高度功能和动态的个人发展计划（IDP）来解决学者的弱点，并增强他们的技能，以提高竞争力，从而获得一流的博士学位。或M.D.-PH.D.程序。我们将利用与本地UR中心的本科课程进行的持续互动，并通过将校园内的T32赠款（包括定期参加T32资助的培训活动纳入校园中的T32补助金）进行。我们的假设是，积极参与一项综合的多维研究，临床和指导的研究培训计划以及学术发展的创新将导致超过75％的培训学者从事生物医学研究职业。目标1是确保杰出的生物医学研究经验，以建立和完善Star-Prep学者的研究技能。这将通过使用杰出教师和学生的多样性社区，最先进的技术和跨学科教育和培训的创新来实现，在这种氛围中，明确强调了卓越和生物医学研究。 AIM 2是加强和扩展Star-Prep学者的学术组合，以促进接受一流的研究生课程。该目标还将通过研究生院申请过程的每一步，为预科学者提供支持并指导预科学者，为学者准备GRE测试，并在精选博士学位上提供直接的经验。课程。通过AIM 3，我们将为每个Star-Prep学者个性化的一组高质量的专业发展活动。培训学者将参加各种研究海报演示论坛，科学写作讲习班，多样性仪式，并参加/出席国家科学会议。 AIM 4将提供以研究为中心的动态心理和社区建设的经验。通过这个目标，我们建议通过学者，导师和博士学位之间的社会和学术活动来建立社区意识。学生。通常，我们的每个目标的成功通常会通过内部和外部评估者管理的个人诊断评估工具进行评估，以确保成功地过渡到过渡学者到研究生课程。
