增加生物医学科学劳动力的多样性是国家的优先事项。有一个导师，更重要的是，一个导师的个人网络，提高了个人在生物医学科学领域攻读高级学位和职业生涯的可能性。国家研究指导网络（NRMN）的主要使命是通过指导历史上代表性不足的个人来减少生物科学劳动力中的种族和民族差异。为了满足这一需求，我们创建了MyNRMN，这是一个连接全国导师和学员的在线辅导平台。该平台支持多种形式的指导，并向被指导者推荐连接，以帮助他们建立个人网络。MyNRMN在线平台已经注册了来自所有50个州和2100多个机构的13，500多名活跃导师和学员。黑人和西班牙裔学员的比例很高。MyNRMN扩大了在生物医学科学导师的机会，特别是那些不从文化或机构，历史上支持导师。该平台强大的搜索和推荐功能以及图形数据库技术使成员能够发展他们的个人导师网络。事实证明，MyNRMN在线平台在全国范围内成功地连接了学员和导师，扩大了生物医学科学职业的管道，以吸引更多样化的劳动力。
Increasing the diversity of the biomedical sciences workforce is a national priority. Having a mentor, and more crucially, a personal network of mentors, improves the likelihood that an individual will pursue an advanced degree and career in the biomedical sciences. The chief mission of the National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN) is to reduce racial and ethnic disparities in the biosciences workforce through the mentoring of historically underrepresented individuals. To address this need, we created MyNRMN, an online mentoring platform that connects mentors and mentees nationwide. The platform enables multiple forms of mentoring and recommends connections to mentees that will help them build their personal networks. The MyNRMN online platform has registered more than 13,500 active mentors and mentees across all 50 states and from more than 2100 institutions. Black and Hispanic mentees are highly represented. MyNRMN has expanded opportunities for mentorship in the biomedical sciences, particularly among those not from a culture or institution that historically supports mentorship. The platform's robust search and recommendation capabilities and graph database technology enable members to grow their personal network of mentors. The MyNRMN online platform has proven successful in connecting mentees and mentors nationwide, expanding the pipeline in biomedical science careers to attract a more diverse workforce.
