Conference Proposal: 2023 CREST Program / Understanding Interventions Conference

在科学技术卓越研究中心（CREST）的支持下，该项目旨在召集来自CREST项目的研究人员和从业人员以及学术和实践的理解干预社区。该项目将为干预研究的专业发展（研讨会），传播（专题讨论会，海报会议）以及话语（更深层次的潜水）提供场所，并为实践和研究社区的成员提供培训（研讨会）。此外，该项目还将促进建立网络，以促进各种研究和实践利益攸关方之间的合作机会。这项工作对于为旨在扩大科学事业参与的方案的方法、战略和活动提供信息非常重要。这个为期两天的会议将促进培训，网络和传播与资助CREST计划网站和干预措施相关的研究工作。 预期成果包括增加CREST和UI社区之间的网络，利用新开发的STEM社交媒体平台，UI IMPLENT（科学专业发展和职业培训的包容性匹配）。 我们还期望参与者和UI/CREST会议之外的一般科学界之间的社区建设和沟通。 CREST/UI联合会议的会议记录和演示文稿将通过UI Journal，UI Index和UI Portal传播。 所有来自海报、研讨会和更深层次的讨论的摘要都将发表在UI期刊的会议期刊上。 所有演示文稿都将在UI门户上提供。 科学技术卓越研究中心（CREST）计划通过建立有效整合教育和研究的中心，为提高少数民族服务机构的研究能力提供支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

With support from the Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology (CREST), this project aims to provide a convening of researchers and practitioners from CREST programs and the Understanding Interventions communities of scholarship and practice. This project will provide venues for professional development (workshops), dissemination (symposia, poster sessions) of interventions research, as well as discourse (deeper dives), and training (workshops) for members across communities of practice and research. In addition, this project will facilitate networking to foster opportunities for collaborations between the various research and practice stakeholders. This work is important to informing the approaches, strategies and activities of programs aimed at broadening participation in science careers. This two-day conference will facilitate training, networking and dissemination of work related to the funded CREST program sites and interventions related research. Expected results include increase networks between CREST and UI communities leveraging the newly developed STEM social media platform, UI IMPACTS (Inclusive Matching for Professional Advancement and Career Training in Science). We also expected community building and communication between participants and the general science community beyond the UI/CREST Conference. The CREST/UI joint conference proceedings and presentations will be disseminated via the UI Journal, UI INDEX, and the UI Portal. All abstracts from posters, symposia and deeper dives will be published in a conference issue of the UI Journal. All presentations will be available on the UI Portal. The Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology (CREST) program provides support to enhance the research capabilities of minority-serving institutions through the establishment of centers that effectively integrate education and research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
