DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The MBRS program on the TWU campus is designed to attract talented minority students, to provide them with academic and financial assistance, and to mentor them toward a successful career in biomedical research. The ultimate aim of the program is to provide students with a strong foundation in those disciplines that are required for a successful career in biomedical research. TWU's MBRS IMSD program consists of three distinct, but overlapping, components: The PreMBRS component is for freshmen and sophomores and is designed to promote academic success and to stimulate interest in a career in the biomedical sciences. The undergraduate MBRS component (usually juniors and seniors) is centered on hands-on research and presentation of research findings. The graduate MBRS component is intended for graduate students that are either in TWU's Ph.D. program or have expressed an interest in pursuing a Ph.D. after completion of the Master's degree. Although the immediate needs and expectations for these three groups differ, for each the overall goal is the fostering of an interest in pursuing a career in biomedical research and enhancing student competitiveness for that career. Activities designed to enhance student competitiveness include: research activities at TWU and external to TWU, participation in developmental activities, networking with successful scientists, and presentation and publication of research findings. New initiatives at TWU include a nursing component, MBRS Fall Research Day, a mentoring workshop, and a manuscript preparation workshop.

描述（由申请人提供）：TWU校园的MBRS计划旨在吸引有才华的少数民族学生，为他们提供学术和经济援助，并指导他们在生物医学研究方面取得成功。该计划的最终目的是为学生提供在生物医学研究的成功职业所需的学科的坚实基础。 TWU的MBRS IMSD计划由三个不同但重叠的部分组成：PreMBRS部分是为新生和大学生设计的，旨在促进学术成功，并激发对生物医学科学职业的兴趣。本科MBRS部分（通常是大三和大四学生）集中在动手研究和研究成果的介绍。研究生MBRS组件是为研究生是在TWU的博士。计划或表示有兴趣攻读博士学位。完成硕士学位后。虽然这三个群体的直接需求和期望有所不同，但每个群体的总体目标都是培养学生对从事生物医学研究的兴趣，并提高学生对该职业的竞争力。 旨在提高学生竞争力的活动包括：在TWU和外部TWU的研究活动，参与发展活动，与成功的科学家建立联系，以及研究成果的介绍和出版。TWU的新举措包括护理部分，MBRS秋季研究日，指导研讨会和手稿准备研讨会。
