PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The overall goal of the renewal of the 2017-2022 Postbaccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP) in Biomedical Sciences (BMS) at the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans (LSUHSC- NO) is to enhance the diversity of the BMS research workforce by continuing equitable and expanded access to research skills and training, thereby yielding increased competitiveness, acceptance, and completion of Ph.D. BMS programs by individuals who are underrepresented in science, such as persons from backgrounds that have been historically-excluded, and/or socioeconomically disadvantaged, and/or persons with disabilities. In the U.S. during 2018-2019, 19% of STEM Bachelor’s degrees were conferred to students from groups un- derrepresented in the sciences; while 10% earned Master’s degrees, and only 7% earned a PhD degree. In Louisiana during 2019-2020, 31% of Biological and Biomedical Sciences Bachelor’s degrees were earned by students from groups underrepresented in science, while 18% earned Master’s degrees, and only 6% earned a PhD degree. Sixty-two percent of our former PREP Scholars are currently enrolled in PhD programs. LSUHSC- NO PREP will accept 30 recent eligible baccalaureate science graduates over 5 years for intensive research and innovative academic training experiences to foster success in BMS doctoral degree programs. The PREP will enhance competitiveness for acceptance, retention, and completion of BMS Ph.D. programs by providing: 1) intensive research experiences with committed and funded faculty mentors; and 2) essential skills development training during the 1-yr training. Solid foundations in research skills will be provided by the following: 1) concen- trated education in scientific critical thinking, analysis of results using statistics, and writing; 2) inventive and personalized test-taking skills to improve GRE scores and success in graduate courses; 3) experience in oral and poster scientific presentations; 4) training in responsible and ethical conduct in research, rigor, and repro- ducibility; and 5) writing a personal statement, selecting, applying, and interviewing for graduate schools. Schol- ars will participate in weekly skills and career development workshops hosted by PREP faculty, internal and external scientists; join graduate students in skills development programs, courses, and seminars; present their research at the annual PREP symposium and local and national scientific conferences; mentor summer research fellows; assist in community science education programs; and participate in community outreach. Thirty-six LSU- HSC-NO active research faculty, committed to the PREP, have extensive experience in mentoring high school, undergraduate, medical, predoctoral, and postdoctoral students representing students underrepresented in the BMS through NIH R01, P20, T32, R25, R35, and other funding mechanisms. Scholar recruitment efforts will extend to 4 local historically black colleges and 2 state universities, to develop a community-wide mechanism to support the BMS workforce. The program will be evaluated using formative and summative methodologies & quantitative and qualitative statistics to document success.

项目摘要/摘要 2017-2022年本科后研究型教育计划(PREP)更新的总体目标 位于新奥尔良的路易斯安那州立大学健康科学中心(LSUHSC- 否)的目的是通过继续公平和扩大获得 研究技能和培训，从而提高竞争力、接受度和完成博士学位。 由在科学界代表性不足的个人实施的BMS计划，例如来自 历史上被排除在外和/或社会经济上处于不利地位的人和/或残疾人。在……里面 美国2018-2019年期间，19%的STEM学士学位授予了来自非 在科学界，10%的人获得了硕士学位，只有7%的人获得了博士学位。在……里面 路易斯安那州2019-2020年间，31%的生物和生物医学学士学位是由 来自理科代表性不足的群体的学生中，18%获得了硕士学位，只有6%获得了 博士学位。我们以前的预科奖学金获得者中有62%现在正在攻读博士学位。LSUHSC- 任何预科学校都不会接受30名符合条件的理科应届毕业生在5年内进行密集研究 创新的学术培训经验，促进BMS博士学位项目的成功。准备工作将会 通过提供以下方面提高BMS博士项目的录取、保留和完成的竞争力：1) 与承诺和资助的教师导师一起进行深入的研究；以及2)基本技能发展 在为期一年的培训期间进行培训。研究技能方面的坚实基础将由以下方面提供：1)集中- 科学批判性思维、统计分析结果和写作方面的培训；2)创造性和 个性化的考试技巧，提高GRE成绩和研究生课程的成功；3)口语经验 和海报科学演示；4)在研究、严谨和复制方面负责任和道德行为的培训- 5)写一份个人陈述，选择、申请和面试研究生院。学校- ARS将参加由预科教师、内部和 外部科学家；与研究生一起参加技能发展计划、课程和研讨会；介绍他们的 在年度预备研讨会和地方和国家科学会议上进行研究；指导夏季研究 协助社区科学教育计划，并参与社区外展。36个路易斯安那州立大学- HSC-没有积极的研究人员，致力于准备，在指导高中方面有丰富的经验， 本科生、医学、博士后和博士后代表在 BMS通过NIH R01、P20、T32、R25、R35等资助机制。学者招聘工作将 扩展到4所当地历史上的黑人学院和2所州立大学，以建立一个社区范围的机制，以 支持BMS员工队伍。该计划将使用形成性和终结性方法进行评估 用定量和定性的统计数据来记录成功。
