Project Summary The Nutrition Obesity Research Centers (NORCs), supported by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), have sought to develop and to identify the barriers and challenges to success of scientists from underrepresented in academia (URiA) groups and to identify actionable strategies to overcome these challenges. As the Diversity Director of the Harvard NORC (NORCH), Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford has been extensively involved in these efforts, directing a NORC-wide symposia series addressing these topics, targeted to early career scientists, leaders of scientific societies, and senior academics and NIH leaders. To build on the knowledge gained and momentum built through the symposia series, the current goal is to continue these efforts by developing a Working Group, directed by Dr. Stanford, that will provide and enact specific recommendations to improve equity and inclusion for the NORCs through NORC-wide initiatives. This supplement will fund Dr. Stanford to direct the Working Group and to train and develop an early career scholar who will work closely with her to enact the NORC-wide efforts developed by the Group to promote URiA scientists. By funding Dr. Stanford’s efforts as well as her time to mentor the early career scholar, this supplemental grant will provide important career development for the scholar and ensure enactment of NORC- wide initiatives that increase the diversity of our research community and promote the advancement of investigators from URM backgrounds.

项目摘要 营养肥胖研究中心(NORC)，由国家糖尿病研究所和 消化和肾脏疾病(NIDDK)，已寻求制定和确定障碍和挑战 学术界(URIA)群体中代表性不足的科学家的成功，并确定可行的战略，以 克服这些挑战。作为哈佛NORC(NORCH)的多样性主任，法蒂玛·科迪博士 斯坦福大学广泛参与了这些努力，指导了NORC范围内的一系列研讨会，讨论 这些主题针对的是早期职业科学家、科学学会领袖、资深学者和美国国立卫生研究院 领袖们。为了在通过系列研讨会获得的知识和势头的基础上再接再厉，目前的目标 继续这些努力，建立一个由斯坦福博士领导的工作组，该工作组将提供和 制定具体建议，通过NORC范围的倡议，改善NORC的公平性和包容性。 这一补充将资助斯坦福博士指导工作组，并培训和发展早期职业生涯 一位学者，她将与她密切合作，颁布由该小组制定的在全国范围内促进 乌里亚科学家。通过资助斯坦福博士的努力以及她为这位早期职业学者提供指导的时间，这 补充补助金将为学者提供重要的职业发展，并确保颁布NORC-- 广泛的倡议，增加我们研究界的多样性，并促进 来自URM背景的调查人员。
