MBRS PROGRAM AT RUTGERS-NEWARK

这是一项在罗格斯-纽瓦克继续实施MBRS计划的提议，现在开始采用管理系统可持续发展计划的格式，该格式已取代现有的协理调查员格式。我们目前正处于持续融资的第15个年头。目前的建议是保留现有的MBRS教职员工，但有一名成员(Ian Fryer)将于今年退休，总共有13名教职员工。我们建议为10名本科生和11名研究生提供培训和支持，使他们能够进行原创生物医学研究。我们的MBRS计划的主要目标是：1.增加符合条件的申请者进入该计划的人数；2.提高我们计划中MBRS学生的学业成绩，从而提高他们的竞争力；3.增加进入生物医学研究职业生涯的MBRS学生的数量；4.不断提高我们的MBRS计划对参与者需求的响应能力。实现这些目标的具体目标和方法在提案中有明确规定。到目前为止，我们的MBRS项目的生产率包括：生产9个博士学位(过去一年有3个，预计下个月还会有一个)，12个硕士学位获得者，7个RN，5个MD，3个助理教授和1个正教授。我们提出了保持和提高这一生产力水平的方法。

This is a proposal to continue the MBRS Program at Rutgers- Newark, now to start in the IMSD format, which has superseded the existing Associate Investigator format. We are currently in our 15th year of continuous funding. The current proposal is to maintain the existing MBRS faculty with the exception of one member who is retiring this year (Ian Fryer), for a total of 13 faculty members. We propose to provide training and support of 10 undergraduate students and 11 graduate students to enable them to perform original biomedical research research. The main goals of the proposed continuation of our MBRS Program are: 1.To increase the number of qualified applicants into the Program, 2.To improve the academic performance and thereby the competitiveness of the MBRS students in our Program, 3. To increase the number of MBRS students entering a career in biomedical research, and 4. To continually improve our MBRS Program's responsiveness to the needs of its participants. The specific objectives and methods to achieve these goals are specified in the proposal. The productivity of our MBRS Program until now has included: production of 9 PhD's (3 in the past year plus one more expected next month), 12 Masters degree awardees, 7 RN's, 5 MD's, 3 Assistant Professors, and 1 Full Professor. We propose means of maintaining and increasing this level of productivity.
