PROJECT SUMMARY As the United States becomes more diverse, it is imperative that institutions of higher education accelerate their efforts to ensure equity in the number of doctoral degrees awarded to students who are members of underrepresented (UR) groups. The University of Colorado Denver (CU Denver) is committed to this goal, and uniquely situated culturally and geographically to meet this need. The CU Denver campus is consolidated with the Anschutz Medical Campus (Anschutz) and, together, is classified as a “Doctoral University: Higher Research Activity”, with more than $400 million in annual sponsored research funding. As such, CU Denver is the only urban public research university in the State of Colorado, and it has the most diverse student body of any University of Colorado campus. In 2016, at least 34% of entering freshmen identified as underrepresented minority (URM) students and at least 57% as students of color. CU Denver was awarded its first MARC U-STAR award on May 22, 2013 (NIGMS T34 GM096958; 2013-2018), and is one of only two in the state. CU Denver was awarded a competing renewal in 2016. The renewal expanded the successful initial development of the CU Denver MARC U-STAR program to support 20 additional rising junior undergraduates (four new scholars per year) majoring in Integrative Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, and Public Health. The CU Denver MARC program complements and extends other training programs at CU Denver and Anschutz, expanding an institutional culture that supports the success of UR students and their entrance into doctoral programs in the biomedical sciences. One unique aspect of the CU Denver MARC U-STAR program is a partnership with the CU Denver Clinical Health Psychology (CHP) program. Through this partnership, we have retained an advanced CHP doctoral student to serve as a wellness point-person for our scholars. This doctoral level student addresses threats to wellness and resiliency on multiple levels using preventative, in- vivo, and follow-up communication aimed at detecting scholar distress and building adaptive copings skills to mitigate distress for our scholars. This supplement aims to adapt this evidence-based program to be more culturally-responsive through a formative needs assessment (barriers impacting scholars, supports needed, self-advocacy skill development) and integration of new learning with the wellness and resiliency program. Culturally-responsive wellness and resiliency training can provide minoritized scholars with knowledge and skills necessary to successfully navigate academic adversity and discrimination with self-advocacy and resilience. These efforts, together with outstanding academic and research training and a culture of support for diversity and inclusion, will help the CU Denver MARC U-STAR program continue to meet the overarching MARC program goal that at least 90% of supported students graduate with a STEM degree and at least 60% matriculate into Ph.D. (or combined M.D./Ph.D.) programs in the biomedical sciences with a doctoral completion rate of at least 80%.

项目总结 随着美国变得更加多样化，高等教育机构必须加快努力，以 确保为代表不足(UR)群体成员的学生授予博士学位的数量公平。 科罗拉多大学丹佛分校(CU Denver)致力于实现这一目标，其独特的文化和 在地理上满足这一需求。CU丹佛校区与安舒茨医学院(安舒茨)合并 加在一起，被归类为“博士生大学：高等研究活动”，每年超过4亿美元 赞助的研究基金。因此，丹佛州立大学是科罗拉多州唯一的城市公立研究型大学， 它拥有科罗拉多大学校园中最多元化的学生群体。2016年，至少34%的新生入学 被确认为代表不足的少数族裔(URM)学生，至少57%是有色人种学生。加州大学丹佛分校荣获 2013年5月22日获得第一个MARC U-STAR奖(NIGMS T34 GM096958；2013-2018)，是该州仅有的两个奖项之一。 科罗拉多大学丹佛分校在2016年获得了与之竞争的续约。这次更新扩大了成功的初步开发 CU Denver Marc U-STAR计划支持20名正在崛起的大三本科生(每年4名新学者) 主修综合生物学、化学、心理学和公共卫生。加州大学丹佛分校MARC项目是对 并扩展了CU Denver和Anschutz的其他培训计划，扩大了支持 UR学生的成功和他们进入生物医学科学的博士项目。CU的一个独特方面 丹佛MARC U-STAR项目是与CU丹佛临床健康心理学(CHP)项目的合作伙伴关系。 通过这一合作关系，我们聘请了一名高级生防护中心博士生担任我们的 学者。这个博士生级别的学生在多个层面上解决对健康和弹性的威胁，使用预防性的，在- VIVO，以及旨在检测学者痛苦和建立适应性应对技能的后续沟通，以缓解 对我们的学者来说是痛苦的。本附录旨在调整这一循证计划，使其更符合文化 通过形成性需求评估(影响学者的障碍、所需的支持、自我宣传技能发展)和 将新的学习与健康和复原力计划相结合。适应文化的健康和弹性 培训可以为少数学者提供成功驾驭学术逆境所需的知识和技能。 以及具有自我主张和韧性的歧视。这些努力，加上杰出的学术和研究 培训和支持多样性和包容性的文化将有助于CU Denver Marc U-STAR计划继续 满足MARC计划的总体目标，即至少90%的受资助学生毕业于STEM学位并在 至少60%的人攻读博士学位(或医学博士/博士结合学位)生物医学专业的博士学位 完成率至少达到80%。
