项目摘要

To improve our overall academic environment, the RISE program was initiated in 1998to prepare students to become scientists. As part of this long term goal of increasing the number of Hispanics studying for the Ph.D., this proposal is concentrating on helping students in three areas, 1- their lack of awareness for career opportunities and of their own potential, 2- their limited research skills and experience, and 3- limited English language skills. These were identified and interventions will be monitored by an external evaluator working with the activity coordinators, program director, and the RISE Advisory Committee. To address these needs four developmental activities are prescribed- visiting scientists, research skills, language skills, and research experiences. Reaching the entire science community, visiting scientists provide seminars and workshops in English to improve attendees' awareness of new techniques and discover science careers, and to serve as role models. Improving the skills of motivated students will be accomplished during their first year by having activities related to research techniques, scientific literacy, and language skills. Research experiences for twelve students will be offered during the academic year in Puerto Rico with active investigators both at UPR-Cayeyand at four collaborating institutions. Additional research experiences will be offered to over 40 students during summer internships at 20 collaborating institutions in the USA. Each component enables students to develop their potential by interacting with a different group of experts: 1) research and language skills with on-campus faculty mentors, 2) motivational visiting scientists, and 3) research lab experience with either on-island research mentors or with off-island scientists located in the USA. Each expert group challenges the students as they develop utilizing the appropriate environment and level of expertise to produce UPRC alumni who will be biomedical research scientists. During the last 8 years, 20 MBRS Alumni completed Ph.D.s and 40 alumni began their Ph.D. studies. By doubling the number of alumni entering doctoral programs, RISE will impact the community. These UPRC scientists will serve to meet the health disparity needs of the Hispanic population in Puerto Rico and the nation by working to discover the causes and remedies of diseases.

为了改善我们的整体学术环境，崛起计划是在1998年启动的，为学生做好了准备成为科学家。作为这一长期目标的一部分，是增加研究的西班牙裔人数博士学位，该提议专注于帮助三个领域的学生，1-他们缺乏对职业的认识机会和自身的潜力，2-他们有限的研究技能和经验，3-有限英语技能。这些已确定，并将由外部评估者监视与活动协调员，计划主任和Rise咨询委员会合作。解决这些需要四个开发活动，包括来访的科学家，研究技能，语言技能，和研究经验。到达整个科学界，访问科学家提供研讨会和英语讲习班，以提高与会者对新技术的认识并发现科学职业，并充当榜样。提高积极学生的技能将在第一个一年通过与研究技术，科学素养和语言技能有关的活动。研究学年在波多黎各的学年将提供十二名学生的经验在四个合作机构的UPR-Cayeyand的调查人员。其他研究经验在美国20家合作机构的暑期实习期间，将为40多名学生提供。每个组件使学生通过与不同的一组互动来发挥潜力专家：1）校园内教师的研究和语言技能，2）激励访问科学家和3）在陆地研究导师或离岛科学家的研究实验室经验位于美国。每个专家小组都会在使用适当的情况下开发学生时向他们挑战将成为生物医学研究科学家的UPRC校友的环境和专业水平。在过去的8年中，20个MBRS校友获得了博士学位，40名校友开始了博士学位。研究。经过 Rise进入博士课程的校友人数增加一倍，将影响社区。这些UPRC 科学家将有助于满足波多黎各西班牙裔人口的健康差异需求通过努力发现疾病的原因和补救措施来国家。
