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.

项目概要 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) 致力于发展并确定其障碍和挑战 学术界（URiA）群体中代表性不足的科学家的成功，并确定可行的策略 克服这些挑战。哈佛NORC（NORCH）多元化主任Fatima Cody博士 斯坦福大学广泛参与了这些工作，指导了一个 NORC 范围内的系列研讨会，解决了这些问题 这些主题针对早期职业科学家、科学协会领导者、高级学者和 NIH 领导人。为了利用通过系列研讨会获得的知识和建立的动力，当前的目标 是通过建立一个由斯坦福博士领导的工作组来继续这些努力，该工作组将提供和 制定具体建议，通过 NORC 范围内的举措提高 NORC 的公平性和包容性。 该补助金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 学者将与她密切合作，制定由该集团制定的 NORC 范围内的努力，以促进 URiA 科学家。通过资助斯坦福博士的努力以及她指导这位早期职业学者的时间， 补充补助金将为学者提供重要的职业发展，并确保 NORC- 的颁布 广泛的举措增加了我们研究界的多样性并促进了进步 来自 URM 背景的调查员。
