This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The NCRR's Strategic Plan for career development is to "ensure the growth and strength of the Nation's scientific talent base." Congruent with this mission statement, the Gene Center requested and was awarded a special award in the last funding cycle from the RCMI to increase the number of highly qualified American and minority graduate students involved in research at the Gene Center. The plan was to address the criticism of our External Advisory Committee, and NIH reviewers, that the proportion of minority and American students were too low in our graduate student pool. This factor greatly hindered our ability to fulfill our missions of maintaining an outstanding research environment and preparing the next generation of American and minority scientists. It also hampered our efforts to secure institutional pre-doctoral training grants from the NIH. Obtaining such a training grant would help raise our institutional profile and prestige. With the help of this RCMI-funded program, we have made tremendous progress towards our goals, including the recent submission of a competitive NIH training grant application in the field of Neurosciences. With the help of the Gene Center Graduate Research Support program, we are now able to recruit top students into our Ph.D. programs from our Master's programs and summer research program as well as through our outreach activities. It is important to emphasize that many of these students already have extensive lab research experience and publication records. As such, these researchers are in many ways "pre-trained" and immediately begin contributing to our scientific environment and productivity upon joining the Ph.D. program. Our combination of a large number of well funded, competitive research laboratories, and a supportive, diverse, student-oriented environment is very attractive to these researchers, many of whom are returning and/or minority students. By providing the same high level of support that they might obtain at Columbia University, Rockefeller University, New York University, Albert Einstein College of Medicine or Cornell Medical College in New York City, the Gene Center fellowship program removed the major hurdle we faced in effectively recruiting competitive researchers to the Gene Center. We provide support for these student researchers from the administrative budget of our RCMI award. The amount funded by the RCMI is matched 1:1 with institutional funds.

该子项目是利用该技术的众多研究子项目之一 资源由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 研究者 (PI) 可能已从 NIH 的另一个来源获得主要资金， 因此可以在其他 CRISP 条目中表示。列出的机构是 对于中心来说，它不一定是研究者的机构。 NCRR 的职业发展战略计划是“确保国家科学人才基础的增长和实力”。与这一使命宣言相一致，基因中心在上一个资助周期中请求并获得了 RCMI 的特别奖励，以增加参与基因中心研究的高素质美国和少数族裔研究生的数量。该计划是为了解决我们的外部咨询委员会和 NIH 评审员的批评，即我们的研究生群体中少数族裔和美国学生的比例太低。这一因素极大地阻碍了我们履行维持优秀研究环境和培养下一代美国和少数族裔科学家的使命的能力。它还阻碍了我们从美国国立卫生研究院获得机构博士前培训资助的努力。获得这样的培训补助金将有助于提高我们的机构形象和威望。在 RCMI 资助的项目的帮助下，我们在实现目标方面取得了巨大进展，包括最近提交了神经科学领域竞争性 NIH 培训拨款申请。 在基因中心研究生研究支持计划的帮助下，我们现在能够招募顶尖学生攻读我们的博士学位。我们的硕士课程和夏季研究计划以及我们的外展活动。需要强调的是，这些学生中的许多人已经拥有丰富的实验室研究经验和发表记录。因此，这些研究人员在很多方面都经过了“预先培训”，并在加入博士后立即开始为我们的科学环境和生产力做出贡献。程序。我们拥有大量资金雄厚、有竞争力的研究实验室，以及支持性、多元化、以学生为导向的环境，这对这些研究人员非常有吸引力，其中许多人是回国学生和/或少数族裔学生。通过提供与哥伦比亚大学、洛克菲勒大学、纽约大学、阿尔伯特爱因斯坦医学院或纽约市康奈尔医学院相同的高水平支持，基因中心奖学金计划有效地消除了我们面临的主要障碍。招募有竞争力的研究人员到基因中心。 我们从 RCMI 奖项的行政预算中为这些学生研究人员提供支持。 RCMI 的资助金额与机构资金 1:1 匹配。
