Project Summary The mission of Wayne State University (WSU)—to create and advance knowledge, prepare a diverse student body to thrive, and positively impact local and global communities—is in line with the goals and vision for the proposed T34 program. Located in Detroit, Michigan, WSU is and has historically been a stabilizing institution in the city and region. WSU is committed to driving this growth, and over the last five years has recruited over 50 new faculty members in the sciences alone. New faculty are drawn to WSU for various reasons, including the diversity of the region, the exceptional facilities, and the success of our faculty, as evidenced in part by a 30% increase in federal funding since 2014. WSU is well-positioned to request continued support for its transition from a successful R25 program to a T34 program, at the level of 20 undergraduate students per year. The goal of the WSU program is to provide targeted training and mentoring that is individualized to meet the needs of a diverse body of graduate students to facilitate successful completion of B.S. degrees and transition to Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D. programs after graduation. Ultimately, these students will develop careers in the biomedical sciences, and will go on to serve as mentors to future generations. Trainees will be selected at the end of their freshman year for participation in a pre-MARC year during their sophomore year. At the end of the pre-MARC year, students will be selected for participation in the MARC program that will last for two years for each student. Participation in year-round research experiences, starting between the sophomore and junior years, will be a part of the program. As with the R25 that is being replaced, the T34 program will focus on developing and enhancing academic skills in addition to providing access to research experiences. Students in the program will be part of our learning community, and remain active throughout their entire training at WSU, with enhanced opportunities for teaching and mentoring. Specifically, we aim to provide (1) MARC students with a structured learning community designed to facilitate and enhance professional bonds that will enable them to learn and develop skills necessary to be successful in future biomedical careers; (2) mentored research experiences coupled with programs and experiences that will enhance the academic program success of MARC students; and (3) all MARC students with a clear structure for transitioning from undergraduate training to graduate school and biomedical careers. These activities are intended to provide opportunities for student trainees to develop skills in basic college proficiencies, presentation, teaching, and mentoring that will not only maintain their focus on career goals, but also develop professional skills that they will use in their future careers. We propose to build on the successes of our long-established R25 program with modifications based on an evolving demographic and social culture of our students. The proposed program will provide academic development and research experience at a large, urban, research institution with an extremely diverse student population to a more personal level for our trainees.

项目概要 韦恩州立大学 (WSU) 的使命——创造和推进知识，培养多元化的学生 机构蓬勃发展，并对当地和全球社区产生积极影响——符合该组织的目标和愿景 拟议的 T34 计划位于密歇根州底特律，WSU 过去一直是一个稳定机构。 华盛顿州立大学 (WSU) 致力于推动这一增长，在过去五年中已招收了多名学生。 仅科学领域就有 50 名新教师被吸引到 WSU 的原因有多种，其中包括。 该地区的多样性、卓越的设施以及我们教师的成功，部分证明了这一点 自 2014 年以来，联邦资金增加了 30%。WSU 处于有利位置，可以请求继续支持其项目 从成功的 R25 项目过渡到 T34 项目，每个项目有 20 名本科生 WSU 计划的目标是提供有针对性的个性化培训和指导，以满足。 不同研究生群体的需求，以促进成功完成学士学位 毕业后过渡到博士和医学博士/博士课程。 生物医学科学，并将继续担任未来几代人的导师。 在大一结束时参加大二学年的 MARC 预科课程。 在 MARC 预科阶段，学生将被选拔参加为期两年的 MARC 项目 从一年级到三年级开始，每个学生都参与全年的研究经历。 与正在被取代的 R25 一样，T34 计划将重点关注。 除了为学生提供研究经验外，还培养和提高学术技能。 该计划将成为我们学习社区的一部分，并在 WSU 的整个培训过程中保持活跃， 具体来说，我们的目标是为 (1) MARC 学生提供更多的教学和指导机会。 拥有一个结构化的学习社区，旨在促进和增强专业联系，从而使 (2) 指导他们学习和发展未来生物医学职业成功所需的技能； 研究经验加上可增强学术计划的计划和经验 MARC 学生的成功；(3) 所有 MARC 学生都有清晰的过渡结构； 这些活动旨在提供从本科生到研究生院和生物医学职业的培训。 为学员提供培养基本大学能力、演讲、教学和培训技能的机会 指导不仅能让他们专注于职业目标，还能培养他们所需要的专业技能 将在他们未来的职业生涯中使用我们建议在我们长期建立的 R25 计划的成功基础上 拟议的计划将根据学生不断变化的人口和社会文化进行修改。 在大型城市研究机构提供学术发展和研究经验 学生群体极其多样化，为我们的学员提供了更加个性化的水平。
