DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Southern University at Baton Rouge (SUBR) proposes to re-establish the MBRS-SCORE program on its campus. The overall long-term goal of the proposed program is to enhance and expand the overall biomedical research capability of the university. Goal 1 is designed to increase the research capabilities, competitiveness and scientific productivity of the 6 participating faculty members. The 4-year measurable objectives include: (1) implementation of productive research projects, sustained by technical and personnel support, that includes collaborators, research associates, consultants, and laboratory technicians; (2) triple the number of peer-reviewed publications; (3) triple the number of faculty presentations at national scientific meetings; (4) triple the number of extramural grant applications funded; (5) increase the number of co-authored manuscripts; (6) continuously monitor the success of the program through monthly planning/ progress meetings; (7) improve the success rate of research proposals and manuscripts submitted to 50% and 100%, respectively. Goal 2 is designed to provide the research infrastructure conducive to increased productivity and competitiveness in the biomedical sciences. The measurable objectives include: (1) establishment of a state-of-the-art research imaging core facility designed to facilitate high throughput productivity and educational outreach; (2) establishment of an administrative unit to plan faculty developmental activities. Goal 3 is designed to double the number of faculty members participating in biomedical research. The 4-year measurable objectives include: (1) increasing the number of minority faculty members participating in SCORE-funded projects from 4 to 10, and the number of total faculty members from 6 to 14; (2) increase the number of faculty members conducting biomedically related research by 25%; (3) expand the number of departments participating in MBRS SCORE program from three to five. Goal 4 is designed to strengthen faculty development and the biomedical research training capacity of the university. The 4-year measurable goals include: (1) increase the number of seminars presented by prominent external speakers from 4-6 to 18 per year; (2) institute an annual symposium; (3) increasing the number of grant writing workshops by one per year; (4) increase the biomedical research involvement of students research assistants by 50%. The proposed program project will dramatically strengthen the research infrastructure, capabilities, development, scientific productivity, competitiveness, research training capacity, and excellence of SUBR faculty in the biomedical sciences. This will lead to increased ability to successfully compete for mainstream funding in biomedical research. The improved atmosphere of research and scholarship will create an environment that will encourage students to seek careers in biomedical research, increasing the number of minority scientists in biomedical research.

描述(由申请者提供)：南方大学巴吞鲁日分校(SUBR)提议在其校园内重建MBRS-SCORE项目。拟议计划的总体长期目标是增强和扩大大学的整体生物医学研究能力。目标1旨在提高6名参与研究的教职员工的研究能力、竞争力和科学生产力。四年可衡量的目标包括：(1)在技术和人员支持下实施生产性研究项目，其中包括合作者、研究助理、顾问和实验室技术员；(2)同行评审出版物的数量增加两倍；(3)教师在国家科学会议上的陈述数量增加两倍；(4)资助的校外资助申请数量增加三倍；(5)增加共同撰写的手稿数量；(6)通过每月规划/进度会议持续监测计划的成功；(七)将研究建议和稿件提交成功率分别提高到50%和100%。目标2旨在提供有利于提高生物医学科学生产力和竞争力的研究基础设施。可衡量的目标包括：(1)建立一个最先进的研究成像核心设施，旨在促进高生产率和教育推广；(2)建立一个行政单位，规划教员发展活动。目标3旨在将参与生物医学研究的教职员工数量增加一倍。4年的可衡量目标包括：(1)将参与SCORE资助项目的少数族裔教职员工人数从4人增加到10人，教职员工总数从6人增加到14人；(2)将从事生物医学相关研究的教职员工人数增加25%；(3)将参与MBRS SCORE计划的院系数量从3个增加到5个。目标4旨在加强大学的师资发展和生物医学研究培训能力。四年可衡量的目标包括：(1)将知名外部发言者提出的研讨会数量从每年4-6次增加到18次；(2)每年举办一次研讨会；(3)每年增加一次赠款撰写讲习班；(4)将学生研究助理的生物医学研究参与度提高50%。拟议的计划项目将极大地加强SUBR在生物医学科学方面的研究基础设施、能力、开发、科学生产力、竞争力、研究培训能力和卓越表现。这将导致提高成功竞争生物医学研究主流资金的能力。研究和学术氛围的改善将创造一个鼓励学生在生物医学研究领域寻求职业生涯的环境，增加生物医学研究领域的少数族裔科学家的数量。
