G-RISE at The City College of New York

提出G-RISE项目的理由是需要一个训练有素的生物医学研究 通过提高其多样性来提高劳动力和收益。我们的研究实力在 生物医学科学，在一个大型公立大学在一个服务不足的社区的心脏，给我们 既有动机，也有能力切实满足这些需求。在这个项目中，一组22名教师 纽约城市学院（CCNY）的成员将在之前RISE计划的成功基础上， 提供协调，创新和严谨的博士学位。生物化学、生物物理学、生物有机 化学、（生物医学和化学）工程和神经科学。拟议的方案具有 支持平均13个代表性不足（UR）博士的能力五年来每年培训一名学员， 每一个实习生的任期为2 - 3年。拟议计划的广泛使命是集中研究和 专业技能发展在代表性不足的博士学员在CCNY，同时还提供 为我们更广泛的STEM学科的学员和导师带来有益的影响。我们的具体 目标和战略如下： ·招聘和留住优秀的少数民族博士生物医学研究兴趣一致的学员 与参与CCNY学院领导的团队。积极的招聘工作将与 持续的学员-导师匹配，发展健全的队列和研究身份，以及 提供支持性和包容性的培训环境。 ·提供严格的教学培训，将学科深度与跨学科广度相结合 同时逐步建立独立的研究设计技能。跨学科学位课程 强调合作教学。 ·提供强有力的研究培训，培养个人技能和创造力， 一个研究小组，研究小组之间的协同作用，以及使用最先进的技术， 解决生物医学科学中的重要开放问题。 ·提供结构化的研究相关活动，建立STEM研究身份和道德价值观， 一个包容性和支持性的G-RISE队列，职业准备的技能和重点。 ·实现培训生的成果，包括提高UR博士的数量和比例。是谁 在生物医学科学和工程学科实现及时毕业，同时也提高 每个受训者的技术和沟通能力，研究生产力，以及博士后。放置 在劳动力中。 在拟议的项目中，NIH和机构资源的战略组合将使我们能够改善 纽约生物医学研究培训的范围和严格性。

The rationale for the proposed G-RISE project begins with the need for a well-trained biomedical research workforce and the gains to be achieved by improving its diversity. Our position of research strength in the biomedical sciences, within a large public university in the heart of an underserved community, gives us both the motivation and the ability to cogently address these needs. In this project, a group of 22 faculty members at The City College of New York (CCNY) will build on the success of a prior RISE program to offer coordinated, innovative, and rigorous Ph.D. training in biochemistry, biophysics, bioorganic chemistry, (biomedical and chemical) engineering, and neuroscience. The proposed program has the capacity to support an average cohort of 13 underrepresented (UR) Ph.D. trainees each year for five years, appointing each trainee for 2-3 years. The broad mission of the proposed program is to focus research and professional skills development on underrepresented Ph.D. trainees at CCNY while also providing beneficial impact for our broader population of trainees and mentors in STEM disciplines. Our specific objectives and strategies are as follows: · To recruit and retain talented minority Ph.D. trainees whose biomedical research interests align with the participating CCNY faculty-led teams. Vigorous recruitment will be coupled with sustained mentee-mentor matching, development of sound cohort and research identity, and provision of a supportive and inclusive training environment. · To offer rigorous didactic training that combines disciplinary depth with interdisciplinary breadth while progressively building independent research design skills. Interdisciplinary degree tracks and co-teaching will be emphasized. · To provide robust research training that fosters individual skills and creativity, cooperation within a research group, synergy among research groups, and the use of state-of-the-art technology to address important open issues in the biomedical sciences. · To offer structured research-related activities that build STEM research identity and ethical values, an inclusive and supportive G-RISE cohort, career-ready skill sets and focus. · To achieve trainee outcomes that include enhanced numbers and proportions of UR Ph.D.’s who achieve timely graduation in biomedical science and engineering disciplines, while also improving each trainee’s technical and communication skills, research productivity, and post-Ph.D. placement in the workforce. In the proposed project, a strategic combination of NIH and institutional resources will allow us to improve the reach and rigor of biomedical research training at CUNY’s City College of New York.
