9612398古铁雷斯古铁雷斯是美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）少数族裔研究职业（MARC）和洛杉矶加州州立大学少数族裔生物医学研究支持（MBRS）项目的化学教授和主任。他的成就包括：1 .通过他在NIH资助项目上的工作，对少数民族学生学院和大学教育产生了重大影响——通过这些项目，他指导了180多名学生，或者他作为教师参与了其他部门项目，如NSF少数民族机构研究改进（RIMI）和本科生研究经验（REU）项目；2。重大的制度影响——在很大程度上通过他的努力，美国化学学会（ACS）于1993年成立了少数民族事务委员会，古铁雷斯担任该委员会的首任主席，该委员会又设立了ACS少数民族学者计划，这是一个面向本科生的500万美元奖学金计划；设立ACS奖，鼓励贫困学生从事化学科学事业。——作为美国国家科学院国家学者计划委员会副主席，他与美国国家航空航天局签订了合同，他有说服力地阐述了所有教师，尤其是科学教师，有责任寻找有才华的少数民族学生，并鼓励他们在本科生涯的早期进行学术发展；ⅲ。除了个别学生，古铁雷斯还影响了一整群未来的科学专业人士。

9612398 Gutierrez Gutierrez is Professor of Chemistry and Director of both the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) and the Minority Biomedical Research Support (MBRS) Programs at California State University at Los Angeles. His accomplishments include: I. Significant impact on minority student college and university education through his work on NIH funded projects -- over 180 students mentored by him through these programs or his role as a faculty participant in other department projects such as the NSF Research Improvement in Minority Institutions (RIMI) and Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Programs; II. Significant institutional impact -- the American Chemical Society (ACS), in great part through his effort, established the Committee on Minority Affairs in 1993 with Gutierrez serving as its first chair, which in turn established the ACS Minority Scholars Program, a $5 million scholarship program for undergraduates; and the establishment of the ACS Award for Encouraging Disadvantaged Students to Pursue Careers in Chemical Sciences. -- as Vice Chair of the National Academy of Science Committee on a National Scholars Program, under contract to NASA, he has articulated persuasively the responsibility of all faculty, but especially science faculty, to seek out talented minority students and encourage their academic development very early in their undergraduate career; and III. Beyond individual students, Gutierrez has effected an entire cohort of future science professionals.
