DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Rochester Biomedical Experience will increase the number of underrepresented minority students prepared to enter biomedical research careers by facilitating the transition of students from associates degree programs at Monroe Community College to baccalaureate-degree programs at Rochester Institute of Technology. The Rochester Biomedical Experience has three long-term goals: 1.) Increase the number of underrepresented minority students enrolled in and graduating from biomedical related science programs at Monroe Community College. To increase enrollment, the project will systematically recruit Black/African-American and Hispanic high school seniors who participate in Monroe Community College's Upward Bound Program, Science and Technology Entry Program, and Liberty Partnerships Program. Each year for three years, a cohort of six students (total N=I 8) from these programs will be invited to enter the Rochester Biomedical Experience. 2.) Improve the academic skills and motivation of the "Biomedical Scholars" enrolled in science programs at Monroe Community College. This will be accomplished through a science seminar series in the first semester; a course on science research, participation in scientific journal clubs, and interactions with mentors during the second semester; and an intensive summer research experience that leads to presentation at the annual meeting of the Rochester Academy of Science or the annual Biomedical Conference for Minority Students. 3.) Prepare second-year "Biomedical Scholars" at Monroe Community College to transfer to biomedical science baccalaureate programs at Rochester Institute of Technology. This will be accomplished through a progressive, structurally-coherent, research-focused seminar series and faculty and peer mentoring in the third semester; peer tutoring, journal clubs and guidance in applying to the targeted RIT science programs.

描述（由申请人提供）：罗切斯特的生物医学经验将增加代表性不足的少数族裔学生的数量，准备通过促进罗切斯特技术学院的Monroe Community College从Monroe Community College到Baccalaulaureate学位课程的学生过渡，从而进入生物医学研究职业。罗切斯特的生物医学经验具有三个长期目标：1。）增加了从门罗社区学院（Monroe Community College）从生物医学相关的科学课程中招收和毕业的代表性不足的少数族裔学生的数量。为了增加入学率，该项目将系统地招募黑人/非裔美国人和西班牙裔高中生，他们参加了梦露社区学院的上限计划，科学技术进入计划以及自由伙伴关系计划。每年三年，将邀请这些计划中的六名学生（总计n = I 8）组成的队列参加罗切斯特的生物医学经验。 2.）提高门罗社区学院科学课程的“生物医学学者”的学术技能和动力。这将通过第一学期的科学研讨会系列实现；第二学期的科学研究课程，参与科学期刊俱乐部的参与以及与导师的互动；以及一项密集的夏季研究经验，导致在罗切斯特理学院年度会议或针对少数族裔学生的年度生物医学会议上进行演讲。 3.）在梦露社区学院准备二年级的“生物医学学者”，以转移到罗切斯特理工学院的生物医学学士学位课程。这将通过在第三学期进行渐进的，结构上的，以研究为重点的研讨会系列以及教师和同伴指导来实现。同行辅导，期刊俱乐部和指导，以申请目标RIT科学计划。
