PROJECT SUMMARY Rapidly evolving substance misuse crises require a diverse workforce of highly trained substance misuse researchers. National and global solutions demand sustainable pipelines of elite investigators with a kaleidoscope of backgrounds, perspectives, and talents. Cultural homogeneity among investigators particularly impedes efforts to resolve challenges impacting underrepresented minority (URM) and disadvantaged communities, which often suffer harsher consequences from substance misuse epidemics. Despite some initiatives to promote diversity, certain groups remain grossly underrepresented in the field. Many URM and disadvantaged students –including women, LGBTQIAP+, individuals from low-income families, first generation college students, and persons with disabilities –face multidimensional historical and social factors that limits their access to the early enrichment, rigorous training, effective mentoring, nourishing environments and financial support necessary to become drug misuse scientists. Many promising students do not obtain research experience, are not introduced to a research career, and do not pursue a graduate degree. Among those that do pursue research careers, there is a publication and funding award disparity between traditional students versus URM, disadvantaged or first-generation college students. These disparities are due in part to training gaps that occur early in undergraduate matriculation. These gaps have domino effects throughout graduate school and throughout one’s career to adversely affect employment, tenure qualifications, and other aspects of academic life. The key to an inclusive, heterogeneous and highly skilled research community is to develop comprehensive initiatives that recruit, train, and cultivate bourgeoning URM and disadvantaged scholars early in their education. To enhance diversity in the next generation of substance misuse and addiction scientists, we propose a comprehensive recruitment and research education program that builds a trans-disciplinary substance misuse research traineeship for URM or disadvantaged undergraduates. The proposed program is entitled the University of South Florida Substance Misuse and Addiction Research Traineeship (SMART). The SMART specific aims are to: [SA1] Recruit gifted URM and disadvantaged undergraduates into SMART; [SA2] Train students in mixed research methods, scientific writing, grantsmanship, and professional practices; [SA3] Facilitate a mentored independent research experience; and [SA4] Disseminate research, best practices, and outcomes. SMART addresses limitations in the extant diversity programs through five pillars: systematic recruitment into research programs, early enrichment, rigorous training, effective mentoring, and nourishing environments. SMART specifically addresses NIH NIDA’s missions to enhance the training of a workforce to meet national and global research needs; encourage individuals from URM backgrounds to pursue careers in research; advance science on the causes of drug use; improve the prevention and treatment of substance use disorders; and advance the research on URM who experience disproportionate consequences.

项目摘要 快速发展的药物滥用危机需要一支训练有素的药物滥用多样化工作队伍 研究人员国家和全球解决方案需要精英调查人员的可持续管道， 背景、观点和才能的万花筒。特别是调查人员之间的文化同质性 阻碍解决影响代表性不足的少数群体和弱势群体的挑战的努力 这些社区往往因药物滥用流行病而遭受更严重的后果。尽管有一些 尽管采取了促进多样性的举措，但某些群体在外地的代表性仍然严重不足。许多URM和 弱势学生-包括妇女、LGBTQIAP+、来自低收入家庭的个人、第一代 大学生和残疾人-面临多方面的历史和社会因素， 他们获得早期充实，严格的培训，有效的指导，滋养环境， 成为药物滥用科学家所需的财政支持。许多有前途的学生得不到研究 经验，不被引入研究生涯，不追求研究生学位。的国家之一 如果你想从事研究事业，传统学生之间的出版物和资金奖励存在差距。 与URM，弱势群体或第一代大学生相比。这些差异部分是由于培训造成的 在本科入学初期出现的差距。这些差距在整个毕业生中产生了多米诺骨牌效应 学校和整个职业生涯对就业，终身任职资格和其他方面产生不利影响， 学术生活建立一个包容性、异质性和高技能的研究社区的关键是发展 招募、培训和培养新兴的URM和弱势学者的综合举措 在他们的教育。为了加强下一代药物滥用和成瘾科学家的多样性， 我们提出了一个全面的招聘和研究教育计划，建立一个跨学科的 为URM或弱势大学生提供物质滥用研究培训。拟议方案是 名为南佛罗里达大学药物滥用和成瘾研究培训（SMART）。的 SMART的具体目标是：[SA 1]招募有天赋的URM和弱势大学生进入SMART; [SA 2] 训练学生混合研究方法、科学写作、语法和专业实践; [SA 3] 促进有指导的独立研究经验;[SA 4]传播研究成果、最佳做法， 结果。SMART通过五大支柱解决现有多样性计划的局限性： 招募研究项目，早期充实，严格的培训，有效的指导，以及滋养 环境. SMART专门解决NIH NIDA的任务，以加强劳动力的培训， 满足国家和全球的研究需求;鼓励来自URM背景的个人追求职业生涯， 研究;推进关于吸毒原因的科学;改进对吸毒的预防和治疗 疾病;并推进对URM谁经历不成比例的后果的研究。
