The American Physiological Society (APS) will address critical needs for increased diversity among physiologists conducting integrative organismal systems (IOS) biology research by building an annual cohort of underrepresented (UR) undergraduate students engaged in IOS research working with members of APS' Comparative and Evolutionary Physiology Section (CEPS).APS will build on the strengths of its existing programs to create long-term solutions to specific needs for increasing diversity in the IOS field. The APS IOSP Fellows will conduct research during the summer, present at APS conferences, gain skills through online professional development activities, and become proponents for IOS research via APS' social media outlets and Physiology Understanding Week. APS expects IOSP Fellows to become active participants in the IOS professional community and will evaluate both short- and long-term impacts of the Fellowship. The project will increase the number of UR students participating in IOS-related research; develop a professional network of support among UR students and researchers; and increase understanding of, and interest in IOS careers among the target group of students.APS will also create a resource collection on supporting students with disabilities in the research lab. The collection will be freely available via APS' NSDL digital library, the Archive of Teaching Resources (www.apsarchive.org).With diversity as a national imperative in STEM fields, this project will create and evaluate resources to improve research hosts' skills in working with UR students from broad backgrounds and with diverse needs and resources for engaging UR undergraduates in research experiences, in professional socialization activities, and as advocates for science to the general public. This will provide a model for other scientific societies in identifying and addressing specific needs in their ongoing diversity efforts, which will be shared with the community at the PI meeting.

美国生理学会（APS）将通过与APS比较和进化生理学部分（CEPS）的成员一起建立一个参与IOS研究的代表性不足（UR）本科生年度队列，来解决进行综合有机体系统（IOS）生物学研究的生理学家之间增加多样性的关键需求。APS将建立在其现有计划的优势之上，为满足内部监督办公室领域日益多样化的具体需要， APS IOSP研究员将在夏季进行研究，出席APS会议，通过在线专业发展活动获得技能，并通过APS的社交媒体渠道和生理学理解周成为IOS研究的支持者。 APS希望IOSP研究员成为IOS专业界的积极参与者，并将评估研究金的短期和长期影响。 该项目将增加乌拉圭大学学生参与IOS相关研究的人数;在乌拉圭大学学生和研究人员中建立一个专业支助网络;提高目标学生群体对IOS职业的了解和兴趣。该集合将通过APS的NSDL数字图书馆免费提供，教学资源档案馆（www.apsarchive.org）。随着多样性作为STEM领域的国家当务之急，该项目将创建和评估资源，以提高研究主持人与来自广泛背景的UR学生合作的技能，并有不同的需求和资源，让UR本科生参与研究经验，专业社交活动，并作为科学的倡导者向公众宣传。 这将为其他科学学会在其正在进行的多样性努力中确定和解决具体需求提供一个模式，并将在PI会议上与社区分享。
