CCNY G-RISE Mentor Training Supplement

在由家长资助的G-RISE项目中， 纽约城市学院（CCNY）提供协调，创新和严格的博士学位。 生物化学、生物物理学、生物有机化学、（生物医学和化学）工程方面的培训， 和神经科学14个代表性不足（UR）博士。五年来，每年都有学员。我们 使命是专注于研究和专业技能发展的博士学位不足。 在一个服务不足的社区中心的一所大型公立大学的实习生，同时也提供 为我们更广泛的STEM学科的学员和导师带来有益的影响。 我们的目标之一是提供一个支持性和包容性的培训环境 招募和留住优秀的少数族裔博士实习生在第一年，CCNY使用了基于证据的 指导培训课程和主持人的主持下，中心的改进， 研究指导经验（CIMER）。该计划的重点是导师-学员 沟通，使期望与指导契约相一致，解决公平和包容问题， 促进专业发展。尽管取得了成功，但评估显示， 根据我们为少数群体服务的机构环境调整该计划的覆盖范围、内容和交付方式。 因此，拟议的补充资金将满足以下几个具体需求： 提供导师培训计划，服务于CCNY的教师和博士更广泛的群体。 学生导师谁监督多层次的URM为重点的研究培训;（2）提高 CIMER计划讨论期间的逻辑流程和参与者互动;（3）解决 导师-学员在人口统计学、生活方式和职业目标方面的差异;（4）正式遵循- 制定导师-学员契约、个人发展计划和学员- （5）为导师设立答谢活动， 强调与这些活动有关的成就和挑战。 对拟议的导师培训计划的评估将在 并在六个月后进行随访。项目成果的传播将包括内部 在NIH主办的培训和劳动力中进行电子共享和外部演示 发展会议。机构可持续性计划已与纽约市委员会正式确定， 临时助理教务长研究。总的来说，所要求的补充将利用G-RISE 通过发展强大的辅导基础设施和文化， 是为我们城市少数民族服务机构的教师和学生量身定制的。

In the G-RISE project supported by the parent grant, a group of 22 faculty members at The City College of New York (CCNY) are offering coordinated, innovative, and rigorous Ph.D. training in biochemistry, biophysics, bioorganic chemistry, (biomedical and chemical) engineering, and neuroscience to 14 underrepresented (UR) Ph.D. trainees each year for five years. Our mission is to focus on research and professional skills development of underrepresented Ph.D. trainees at a large public university in the heart of an underserved community, while also providing beneficial impact for our broader population of trainees and mentors in STEM disciplines. Among our objectives is the provision of a supportive and inclusive training environment to recruit and retain talented minority Ph.D. trainees. In Year 1, CCNY used an evidence-based mentor training curriculum and facilitator under the aegis of the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experiences in Research (CIMER). This program focused on mentor-mentee communication, aligning expectations with mentoring compacts, addressing equity and inclusion, and promoting professional development. Despite its success, assessment revealed the need to tailor the program’s reach, content, and delivery to our minority-serving institutional environment. Thus, the proposed supplemental funding will address several specific needs: (1) to provide mentor training programs that serve a broader group of CCNY both faculty and Ph.D. student mentors who supervise multi-level URM-focused research training; (2) to improve the logical flow and participant interactions in the CIMER program’s discussion periods; (3) to address mentor-mentee differences in demographics, lifestyles, and career goals; (4) to formalize follow- up development of Mentor-Mentee Compacts, Individual Development Plans (IDPs), and mentee- designed Path-to-Professions activities; (5) to establish appreciation events for mentors to highlight the achievements and challenges associated with these activities. Assessment of the proposed mentor training programs will be conducted directly after the sessions and followed up after six months. Dissemination of the project results will include internal electronic sharing and external presentations at NIH-sponsored Training and Workforce Development meetings. Institutional sustainability plans have been formalized with CCNY’s Interim Associate Provost for Research. Overall, the requested Supplement will leverage G-RISE funding through the parent grant by developing a robust mentoring infrastructure and culture that is tailored to the faculty and students at our urban minority-serving institution.
