项目摘要

The overall goal of the MARC U'STAR program is to increase the number of academically successful underrepresented minority students who are admitted to and graduate with degrees from biomedically-related doctoral programs. This proposal is for a continuation of a successful program that has been providing 10 students a 2-year mentored research experience in the laboratory of a research faculty member; a summer research externship at another university, or industrial or government lab; regular presentation of research results at local, regional and national meetings; workshops on science careers, developing effective externship and graduate applications, and GRE preparation; a required 3-credit Responsible Conduct of Research course; and a special meeting to introduce family to the MARC program, the faculty mentor and the student's research laboratory. In the last 5 years, this program has moved 10 students into the graduate pipeline (4 Ph.D.; 4 PREP; 2 Masters), with a dozen more academically successful students positioned to enter biomedical graduate schools. To the elements of our previous program, all of which will be continued, in this cycle we will add activities designed to increase students; academic success and credentials for graduate admission. Specific measurable objectives have been established for the new activities which include: academic support services in the form of tutorial workshops to help MARC students excel in key science courses; the requirement that each MARC student submit a final written paper on their research experience at the end of the MARC appointment; regular, systematic, and structured activities to prepare for the timely completion for GREs with improved test scores; workshops for both students and faculty on techniques to develop the most effective graduate and fellowship applications possible, with special attention to statements of purpose and faculty letters of recommendation; a system of documenting competency in basic and specialized scientific computer applications; new courses in bioinformatics and in epidemiology and biostatistics with an emphasis on minority health disparities, and several new laboratories in Physical and Bio-Chemistry that emphasize quantitative/modeling approaches, and the retrieval and use of structural and other information from proteomics and genetics bases.

MARC U'star计划的总体目标是增加学术上成功的数量代表人数不足的少数族裔学生被录取并毕业与生物医学相关的博士课程。该建议是为了延续成功的计划在研究实验室中，已经为10名学生提供了2年的指导研究经验教职员工；另一所大学或工业或政府实验室的夏季研究；定期在地方，地区和国家会议上介绍研究结果；科学研讨会职业，发展有效的实习和研究生应用以及GRE准备；必需的 3学分负责任的研究课程；和一次特别会议，将家人介绍给马克计划，教师导师和学生的研究实验室。在过去的5年中，该计划有将10名学生带入研究生管道（4 ph.d。; 4 prep; 2个大师），还有十几名学术上成功的学生可以进入生物医学研究生院。到我们的要素以前的程序将继续进行，在这个周期中，我们将添加旨在增加的活动学生;学术成就和研究生入学的证书。具体可测量的目标已针对新活动建立，其中包括：以教程的形式进行学术支持服务帮助MARC学生在关键科学课程中表现出色的讲习班；每个MARC学生的要求在MARC任命结束时提交有关其研究经验的最后一篇论文；常规的，系统和结构化的活动，以准备及时完成GRE，并改进测试分数；学生和教职员工的讲习班，以发展最有效的研究生和可能的奖学金申请可能，特别关注目的声明和教师信推荐;一种记录基础和专业科学计算机能力的系统申请；生物信息学以及流行病学和生物统计学的新课程，重点是少数族裔健康差异以及几个强调物理和生物化学的新实验室定量/建模方法，以及从结构和其他信息中检索和使用蛋白质组学和遗传基础。
