DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary goal of the Ponce School of Medicine (PSM) MBRS-RISE Program is to increase the competitiveness and retention of underrepresented Hispanic students participating in biomedical research in the interdisciplinary Ph.D. Program at PSM in Puerto Rico. The PSM MBRS-RISE Program will address several shortcomings of our current Ph.D. program, including a low number of applicants, high withdrawal rates, the need for more specialized graduate courses and workshops, lack of financial assistance, the need for improved mentoring in preparation for post-graduate professional plans, and the need for a formal evaluation system to monitor our graduate students and provide direction for improving the training of our students. The program proposes to accomplish these goals through enhancement of the academic, research, personal, and professional competence of our underrepresented minority students, which will better prepare them for careers in the biomedical sciences. The specific measurable objectives of the PSM RISE program are as follows: (1) to increase the quality and retention of the students in the Ph.D. program; (2) to provide continuing, new, and enhanced professional development and career skills training for PSM MBRS-RISE trainees to strengthen their future competitiveness; and (3) to conduct critical evaluation and student tracking to assess program effectiveness, track the career paths of RISE graduates, and provide feedback for improving student training. The PSM MBRS-RISE program will complement existing MBRS-SCORE and RCMI programs to significantly enhance the overall research program by providing a better trained student workforce to conduct the funded research projects and provide the momentum to create new research initiatives. The enhanced training provided by the PSM MBRS-RISE program will increase the number of Hispanic Americans doing biomedical research and encourage the growth of biomedical research in Puerto Rico. By contributing to a more culturally diverse research workforce, the program will foster biomedical research of minority health disparities.

描述（由申请人提供）：庞塞医学院 (PSM) MBRS-RISE 计划的主要目标是提高参与跨学科博士生物医学研究的代表性不足的西班牙裔学生的竞争力和保留率。波多黎各 PSM 项目。 PSM MBRS-RISE 计划将解决我们当前博士学位的几个缺点。计划，包括申请人数量少、退学率高、需要更专业的研究生课程和讲习班、缺乏财政援助、需要改进研究生职业计划准备方面的指导以及需要正式的评估系统监督我们的研究生并为改善学生的培训提供指导。该计划建议通过提高少数族裔学生的学术、研究、个人和专业能力来实现这些目标，这将为他们在生物医学科学领域的职业生涯做好更好的准备。 PSM RISE 计划的具体可衡量目标如下： (1) 提高博士生的质量和保留率。程序; (2) 为PSM MBRS-RISE学员提供持续的、全新的、强化的专业发展和职业技能培训，以增强他们未来的竞争力； (3) 进行严格评估和学生跟踪，以评估项目有效性，跟踪 RISE 毕业生的职业道路，并为改进学生培训提供反馈。 PSM MBRS-RISE 计划将补充现有的 MBRS-SCORE 和 RCMI 计划，通过提供训练有素的学生队伍来开展资助的研究项目，并为创建新的研究计划提供动力，从而显着增强整体研究计划。 PSM MBRS-RISE 计划提供的强化培训将增加从事生物医学研究的西班牙裔美国人的数量，并鼓励波多黎各生物医学研究的发展。通过为文化更加多元化的研究队伍做出贡献，该计划将促进少数族裔健康差异的生物医学研究。
