DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The SCORE Program at Cal Poly Pomona was established in June 2000 and renewed in September 2004 to significantly improve the research capabilities of the University with the ultimate objective of increasing the number of underrepresented minority students who are motivated to pursue careers as biomedical scientists. To achieve these ends the program funds high quality research leading to peer-reviewed publications and strengthens the infrastructure for scientific research. The existing program includes six subprojects involving faculty with strong, demonstrable commitments to research and to graduate and undergraduate education. The currently funded program is interdisciplinary, involving faculty from three academic departments in two different colleges. The seven projects included in this supplement will add three new departments (Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Kinesiology, Psychology and Sociology), the latter two being from a College not currently represented in our program. These projects also include three female investigators, one of them (Dr. Floriano) a Latina. The proposed SCORE projects significantly expand the range of research projects to include organic chemistry (Dr. Liu), two aspects of the health of the local underrepresented minority community (Drs. Algert and Liang), psychological aspects of health care delivery to different ethnic groups (Dr. Alvarado), molecular physiology (Dr. Gruber), biomechanics (Dr. Wickler), and bioinformatics (Dr. Floriano).

描述（由申请人提供）：在加州理工学院波莫纳的SCORE计划成立于2000年6月，并于2004年9月更新，以显着提高大学的研究能力，最终目标是增加少数民族学生的人数，他们有动力追求生物医学科学家的职业生涯。为了实现这些目标，该计划资助高质量的研究，导致同行评审的出版物，并加强科学研究的基础设施。现有的计划包括六个子项目，涉及教师与强大的，可证明的承诺，研究生和本科教育。目前资助的项目是跨学科的，涉及两所不同学院三个学术部门的教师。包括在本补充的七个项目将增加三个新部门（动物和兽医科学，运动机能学，心理学和社会学），后两个是从一所大学目前没有在我们的计划代表。这些项目还包括三名女性调查员，其中一名（弗洛里亚诺博士）是拉丁裔。拟议的SCORE项目大大扩大了研究项目的范围，包括有机化学（刘博士），当地代表性不足的少数民族社区的两个健康方面（Algert和Liang博士），向不同种族群体提供医疗保健的心理方面（阿尔瓦拉多博士），分子生理学（Gruber博士），生物力学（Wickler博士）和生物信息学（弗洛里亚诺博士）。
