MBRS-SCORE Program at Universidad Central del Caribe

中加勒比大学医学院（UCC- SM）继续致力于发展强大的研究能力，并激励少数民族教师和学生参与相关的生物医学研究。作为这一长期目标的一部分，我们正在提交我们的竞争性续签申请，以延续我们传统的MBRS计划，这是一个新的MBRS- score计划。UCC-SM成立于1976年，是一所私立非营利性医学院，其医学和研究生课程得到了当地和/或国家机构的认可。此外，我们还与几个邻近的机构建立了联盟，为大量的少数民族本科生和研究生提供服务。UCC-SM的MBRS SCORE计划包含了国家MBRS计划的使命，即“寻求为代表性不足的少数民族提供更多选择和参与生物医学研究事业的机会，并培养有竞争力的生物医学研究科学家，他们也是少数民族。”UCC- SM MBRS项目的具体目标与国家项目的目标是一致的：1 .为项目的运行和相关的发展和评估活动提供行政支持和必要的环境。2. 每年在国家和（或）专门会议上的发言次数增加10%。3. 在周期结束时，将向校外基金提交提案的教师数量增加50%，在第三年底之前，至少有50%的SCORE调查人员提交r型申请。UCC- SM的mbr - score项目将通过继续和扩大以下拟议的具体活动来实现这些目标：a)。教师发起的，科学上值得称道的研究和b)积极的发展计划，将提供必要的支持。最后，根据NIH和机构的要求，我们提出了一个全面的计划来评估所有具体的可测量目标。

The School of Medicine of the Universidad Central del Caribe (UCC- SM) is continuing with its commitment to develop strong research capabilities, and to motivate both minority faculty and students to participate in relevant biomedical research. As part of this long-term goal, we are submitting our competitive renewal application for the continuation of our traditional MBRS Program is a new MBRS-SCORE Program. UCC-SM was founded in 1976 as a private, non-profit Medical School, and its medical and graduate studies program accredited by local and/or national agencies. Furthermore, we have established consortium with several neighboring institutions serving a large population of undergraduate and graduate minority students. MBRS SCORE initiative at UCC-SM, embraces the mission of the national MBRS Program of "seeking to provide expanded opportunities for under-represented minorities to choose and participate in biomedical research careers and developing competitive biomedical research scientists who are also ethnic minorities." The specific goals of the MBRS Program at UCC- SM, which are consonant to the goals of the National Program, are: 1: To provide administrative support and necessary environment for operation of the Program and related developmental and evaluation activities. 2. To increase each year, the number of presentations at national and/or specialized meetings by 10%. 3. To increase the number of faculty submitting proposals to extramural funds by 50% by the end of the cycle, with at least 50% of our SCORE investigators submitting R-type applications by the end of year 3. The MBRS-SCORE Program at UCC- SM will achieve these objectives, via the continuation and expansion of the following proposed specific activities: a). Faculty initiated, scientifically meritorious, research and b), an aggressive developmental program that will provide the necessary support. Finally, following both NIH and Institutional requirements, we are proposing a comprehensive plan for the evaluation of all specific measurable objectives.
