Project Summary The overall goal of the National Research Mentoring Network Resource Center (NRMN-RC) is to significantly increase the number of successful scientists from diverse backgrounds in biomedical research by creating in- person and online networks of mentors and mentees. We will recruit diverse undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, as well as experienced, well-trained mentors, including those from diverse backgrounds. We will build on our collective expertise and experience in NRMN with recruitment, connecting mentors and mentees and networking. We will build on a set of mentoring principles and practices that will guide the mentee-mentor interactions. Through NRMNet, an innovative Web portal that was launched in the first phase of NRMN, we will provide guided virtual mentoring and networking through MyNRMN to connect diverse mentees and mentors as well as provide a platform to share information such as catered career stage resources and best practices regarding mentorship and professional development. Connections will be made in real time (one-on-one and in groups) and asynchronously in Webinars and videos. Our overarching objective is to help mentees identify career goals, and provide efficient, user-friendly communication tools and resources for creating and maintaining effective mentor-mentee relationships. The specific aims are: Aim 1: Expand NRMNet for networking and mentorship for a diverse biomedical research workforce. Aim 2: Recruit and engage diverse mentees and mentors in NRMN through partnership with minority serving institutions, NIH funded centers and training programs and professional organizations. Aim 3: Connect mentees and mentors from diverse backgrounds through MyNRMN, our virtual mentoring and networking platform, and through in- person mentoring and networking. The expected outcome of the NRMN-RC is enhanced engagement and retention of diverse mentees in biomedical research careers as measured by their transition to the next career stage. Other quantifiable metrics are effective synchronous and asynchronous mentoring of diverse mentees; mentee usage of relevant mentoring and career development resources, and higher rates of transition from one career stage to the next. These accomplishments, consistent with the Diversity Program Consortium Hallmarks of Success, will lead to a sustainable network of biomedical professionals from diverse disciplines at various career stages and lasting changes in the American biomedical research workforce.

项目摘要 国家研究指导网络资源中心（NRMN-RC）的总体目标是 通过创造更多来自不同背景的生物医学研究成功科学家的数量- 导师和学员的个人和在线网络。我们将招募不同的本科生和研究生 学生，博士后研究员和初级教师，以及经验丰富，训练有素的导师，包括那些 来自不同的背景。我们将利用NRMN的集体专业知识和经验进行招聘， 连接导师和学员并建立网络。我们将建立一套指导原则和实践 指导学员与导师之间的互动。通过NRMNet，一个创新的门户网站， 在NRMN的第一阶段，我们将通过MyNRMN提供指导性的虚拟指导和网络， 连接不同的学员和导师，并提供一个平台，分享信息，如餐饮业 阶段资源和最佳实践有关的指导和专业发展。连接将被 在网络研讨会和视频中以真实的时间（一对一和分组）和异步方式进行。我们的总体 目标是帮助学员确定职业目标，并提供高效，用户友好的沟通工具， 创建和维护有效的导师-学员关系的资源。具体目标是：目标1： 扩大NRMNet，为多样化的生物医学研究人员建立网络和提供指导。目标2：招募 并通过与少数民族服务机构、国家卫生研究院（NIH）的合作， 资助的中心和培训方案以及专业组织。目标3：连接学员和导师 通过MyNRMN，我们的虚拟指导和网络平台，来自不同背景的人，并通过 个人指导和网络。NRMN-RC的预期成果是加强参与， 保留不同的学员在生物医学研究职业生涯，衡量他们的过渡到下一个职业生涯 阶段其他可量化的指标是对不同学员的有效同步和异步辅导; 受训者使用相关辅导和职业发展资源，从一种资源过渡到另一种资源的比率提高 职业生涯到下一个阶段。这些成就符合多元化计划联盟的标志 的成功，将导致一个可持续的网络生物医学专业人员从不同学科在不同的 美国生物医学研究人员的职业阶段和持久变化。
