Biomedical Research at Barry University

描述（由申请人提供）：MBRS RISE计划在巴里大学的目标是：1）提高机构的研究建设能力; 2）加强学生和教师的生物医学研究技能; 3）提高学生的学术准备。 为了实现这些目标，我们确定了八个可衡量的目标： 1)通过在资助期内15个新的赠款申请，保持所有支持部门的教师研究生产力。 2)保持在支持部门的教师在评审期刊上发表的论文数量为每年9篇。 3)在支持的部门中，增加学生和教师在科学会议上的演讲数量，平均每年50次。 4)在支持的部门中，每年参与校园生物医学研究的学生人数增加到22人。 5)在支持的部门中，每年经历夏季研究实习的学生人数增加到18人。 6)增加RISE参与者被接受进入博士学位的数量。6、在融资期内。 7)将学生毕业时的平均累积科学GPA提高0.2。 8)RISE和补充课程的学生毕业率保持在95%。 2005年3月至2009年2月新供资期的RISE发展计划是在2001年3月至2005年2月当前供资周期成功的学生和教师发展计划的基础上提出的。学生发展计划保持了七个层次组成的基本组成：研究开始讲习班;暑期研究实习;校内研究;系列研讨会;科学会议; GRE讲习班;研究生院讲习班。教师发展计划也有基本结构：夏季研究实习和科学会议。根据这些活动在目前的资助期内的成果，我们将“重新塑造”研究开始工作坊，并增加一个新的学生组成部分-研究工作坊。对于教师部分，我们将添加研讨会参与。相关的发展组成部分将开始的大二或大三前的夏天，并继续到高年级的生物和化学专业。自然和健康科学学院以及艺术和科学学院的全职教师将参加这些活动。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Goals of the MBRS RISE program at Barry University are to: 1) Increase the research building capacity of the institution; 2) Strengthen student and faculty biomedical research skills; 3) Increase student academic preparedness. To achieve these goals we have determined eight Measurable Objectives: 1) Maintain faculty research productivity in all supported departments through 15 new grant applications over the funding period. 2) Maintain the number of publications in refereed journals from faculty in supported departments at 9 annually. 3) Among supported departments increase the number of student and faculty presentations at scientific meetings to an average of 50 annually. 4) Among supported departments increase the number of students involved in on-campus biomedical research to 22 students annually. 5) Among supported departments increase the number of students experiencing a summer research internship to 18 annually. 6) Increase the number of RISE participants that are accepted into Ph.D. programs to 6 over the funding period. 7) Increase the average student's cumulative science GPA at graduation by 0.2. 8) Maintain graduation rates for students in RISE and complementary programs at 95%. The RISE Developmental Plan for the new funding period, March 2005 - February 2009, advances from the successful Student and Faculty Development Plan of the current funding cycle, March 2001 - February 2005. The Student Development Plan maintains the basic composition of the seven hierarchical components: Research Beginnings Workshop; Summer Research Internship; On-campus Research; Seminar Series; Scientific Meetings; GRE Workshops; Graduate School Workshops. The Faculty Development Plan also has the basic structure: Summer Research Internship and Scientific Meetings. Based on the outcomes of these activities over the current funding period, we will 're-model' the Research Beginnings Workshop, and add one new student component--Tutorial Workshops. For the faculty component we will add Workshop Participation. The related developmental components will begin the summer preceding the sophomore or junior year and continue into the senior year for biology and chemistry majors. Full-time faculty in the School of Natural and Health Sciences and in Arts and Sciences will participate in the activities.
