项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The IMSD program "Graduate and Undergraduate Training in Biomedicine at ASU" will have a significant impact across the ASU campus. The goal of the program is to increase in the number of underrepresented students, including ethnic minority, financially disadvantaged and disabled students, that earn a Ph.D. and pursue research careers in biomedical/behavioral disciplines. An innovative feature of the program is its emphasis on creating a supportive environment for young scientists through community connections that highlights the relevance of biomedical research to the health challenges facing their communities. We feel this focus will increase the appeal of the program to underrepresented students and also enhance their ability to complete their degree. Our goals will be accomplished through the pursuit of two Specific Aims. In Aim 1 we plan to increase the number of underrepresented undergraduates at ASU who are prepared and motivated to enter graduate studies in biomedical/behavioral sciences. We propose a four-year undergraduate program beginning with entering freshman. In Aim 2 we plan to increase the number of underrepresented graduate students who earn their Ph.D. at ASU and choose to continue in research in biomedical/behavioral sciences. We propose a two-year graduate student program that will focus on entering students. For both Aims we will expand our recruitment efforts both within Arizona and beyond via collaborations with well-respected Mathematics programs for underrepresented students at ASU and partnerships with California State Universities. We will expand research opportunities for students in diseases affecting their communities, for example through the ASU/Mayo Clinic Center for Metabolic and Vascular Biology and the Maricopa Insulin Resistance Initiative. We will provide a supportive environment by mentoring faculty on the challenges faced by underrepresented students, by utilizing peer mentoring and by offering a suite of workshops/seminars covering topics such as science writing, critical thinking, quantitative methods and responsible conduct of research. Overall, our broad training program will: excite a total of 80 graduate and undergraduate students over four years with its connection to health-care issues in their community, facilitate their access to a wide range of faculty mentors and enhance their research experience with structured academic activities. We will employ bi-annual formative evaluations to identify opportunities for program improvement in real time and a summative evaluation to set the stage for training the next generation of underrepresented scientists.

描述（由申请人提供）：IMSD 项目“亚利桑那州立大学生物医学研究生和本科生培训”将对整个亚利桑那州立大学校园产生重大影响。该计划的目标是增加获得博士学位的少数族裔学生、经济困难学生和残疾学生的数量。并从事生物医学/行为学科的研究职业。该计划的一个创新特点是强调通过社区联系为年轻科学家创造一个支持性环境，强调生物医学研究与其社区面临的健康挑战的相关性。我们认为这一重点将增加该计划对代表性不足的学生的吸引力，并提高他们完成学位的能力。我们的目标将通过追求两个具体目标来实现。在目标 1 中，我们计划增加亚利桑那州立大学代表性不足的本科生数量，这些本科生已做好准备并有动力进入生物医学/行为科学研究生学习。我们提出从新生开始的四年制本科课程。在目标 2 中，我们计划增加获得博士学位的代表性不足的研究生数量。在亚利桑那州立大学并选择继续从事生物医学/行为科学研究。我们提出了一个为期两年的研究生计划，重点关注新生。为了实现这两个目标，我们将通过与亚利桑那州立大学备受推崇的数学项目合作以及与加州州立大学合作，在亚利桑那州内外扩大我们的招生工作。我们将扩大学生对影响其社区的疾病的研究机会，例如通过亚利桑那州立大学/梅奥诊所代谢和血管生物学中心和马里科帕胰岛素抵抗计划。我们将通过指导教师应对代表性不足的学生所面临的挑战、利用同伴指导以及提供一系列涵盖科学写作、批判性思维、定量方法和负责任的研究行为等主题的讲习班/研讨会来提供支持性环境。总体而言，我们广泛的培训计划将：在四年内，通过与社区医疗保健问题的联系，激发总共 80 名研究生和本科生的兴趣，帮助他们接触广泛的教师导师，并通过结构化学术增强他们的研究经验活动。我们将采用每年两次的形成性评估来实时发现项目改进的机会，并进行总结性评估，为培训下一代代表性不足的科学家奠定基础。
