Project Summary/Abstract The Stanford Genomics Diversity Summer Program (GDSP) is designed to help increase the number of underrepresented scientists pursuing and succeeding in genetics, genomics, or other research careers. GDSP’s goals are to help participants of diverse backgrounds to: (a) successfully transition to the next career level; (b) remain in STEM; (c) pursue a PhD relevant to genomics; and (d) pursue careers in genomics. We support this goal by recruiting highly qualified students from diverse backgrounds and exposing them to cutting-edge research in top and well-resourced laboratories. The GDSP introduces and supports students in Genetics who otherwise may not had such an opportunity, and will serve as a catalyst for the development of students from diverse and underrepresented communities. Furthermore, this proposal will enhance the infrastructure of equity and education at Stanford University, introducing Genetics and Genomics research experiences to underrepresented minority, first generation college students, female students, students with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ students who would otherwise lack such opportunities. This will allow them to experience a broad spectrum of research, and to acquire skills -- such as data analysis used in modern scientific investigations -- while preparing them for careers in genomics science as well as developing a vast network of partnerships among scientists from national and international institutions. Each year, 10-15 diverse undergraduate and post-baccalaureate students will be selected from across the U.S. as GDSP Scholars. These GDSP Scholars participate in SSRP, a comprehensive, fully-funded, 9-week summer research program, during which time they work in genomics laboratories, receiving training in a wide variety of research techniques. The program prepares diverse participants for applications to PhD towards a PhD program, by addressing the career, academic, and personal needs of diverse students. With grant support from the NIH, selected undergraduate students become a part of our Stanford network and obtain rigorous laboratory experience at a top-tier research institution. A diverse group of faculty, staff, and students will contribute to the Action Plan, Central to the success of this plan is a commitment to diversity and inclusion as core values of Stanford. Building a culture and climate that values diversity and inclusion is the responsibility of all members of the Stanford community. We acknowledge that diverse people, perspectives, and backgrounds do not compete with excellence, but instead drive it.

项目总结/摘要 斯坦福大学基因组学多样性暑期项目（GDSP）旨在帮助增加 一些代表性不足的科学家追求和成功的遗传学，基因组学，或 其他研究职业。GDSP的目标是帮助不同背景的参与者： 成功过渡到下一个职业水平;（B）留在STEM;（c）攻读相关博士学位 （d）从事基因组学方面的事业。我们通过招募高水平的员工来支持这一目标。 来自不同背景的合格学生，让他们接触到前沿研究， 一流且资源充足的实验室。GDSP介绍和支持遗传学的学生 谁否则可能没有这样的机会，并将作为一个催化剂， 来自多元化和代表性不足社区的学生的发展。而且这 该提案将加强斯坦福大学的公平和教育基础设施， 向代表性不足的少数民族介绍遗传学和基因组学研究经验，首先 一代大学生，女学生，残疾学生和LGBTQ+学生 否则他们将没有这样的机会。这将使他们能够体验到广泛的 研究范围，并获得技能-如现代科学中使用的数据分析 调查-同时为他们在基因组学科学的职业生涯做好准备， 来自国家和国际机构的科学家之间的庞大伙伴关系网络。 每年，10-15个不同的本科和学士后的学生将被选中 来自美国各地的GDSP学者这些GDSP学者参加SSRP， 全面、全额资助、为期9周的夏季研究计划，在此期间他们工作 在基因组学实验室，接受各种研究技术的培训。的 该项目为不同的参与者申请博士学位并攻读博士学位做好准备，具体方式如下 解决不同学生的职业，学术和个人需求。在赠款支持下 从国立卫生研究院，选定的本科生成为我们斯坦福大学网络的一部分， 在顶级研究机构获得严格的实验室经验。 一个多元化的教师，工作人员和学生群体将有助于行动计划，中央 该计划的成功是对多样性和包容性的承诺，这是斯坦福大学的核心价值观。 建立一种重视多样性和包容性的文化和氛围是所有人的责任 斯坦福大学社区的成员。我们承认，不同的人，观点， 背景并不与优秀竞争，而是推动它。
