DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): To improve our overall academic environment, the RISE program was initiated in 1998 to 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 Cayey and at four collaborating institutions. Additional research experiences will be offered to over 40 students during summer internships at 20 collaborating institutions in the U.S. 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 U.S. Each expert group challenges the students as they develop utilizing the appropriate environment and level of expertise to produce UPR Cayey 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 UPR Cayey 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.

描述（由申请人提供）：为了改善我们的整体学术环境，RISE计划于1998年启动，旨在培养学生成为科学家。作为增加攻读博士学位的西班牙裔人数的长期目标的一部分，这项建议集中在三个方面帮助学生：（1）他们对就业机会和自己的潜力缺乏认识;（2）他们的研究技能和经验有限;以及（3）英语语言技能有限。这些措施已经确定，并将由一名外部评估员与活动协调员、项目主任和RISE咨询委员会合作监测。为了满足这些需求，规定了四项发展活动-访问科学家、研究技能、语言技能和研究经验。访问科学家覆盖整个科学界，以英语提供研讨会和讲习班，以提高与会者对新技术的认识，发现科学事业，并作为榜样。提高积极性的学生的技能将在他们的第一年通过与研究技术，科学素养和语言技能相关的活动来完成。在波多黎各的学年期间，将为12名学生提供研究经验，同时在普遍定期审议卡伊和四个合作机构进行积极的调查。额外的研究经验将提供给40多名学生在暑期实习期间在20个合作机构在美国每个组件使学生能够通过与不同的专家组互动发展自己的潜力：（1）与校内教师导师一起学习研究和语言技能，（2）激励访问科学家，和（3）研究实验室的经验，无论是在岛上的研究导师或与小康-每个专家组挑战学生，因为他们开发利用适当的环境和专业知识水平，以产生UPR卡伊校友谁将是生物医学研究科学家。 在过去的8年里，20名MBRS校友完成了博士学位，40名校友开始了他们的博士学位。问题研究通过将进入博士课程的校友人数增加一倍，RISE将影响社区。这些普遍定期审议卡伊科学家将致力于通过努力发现疾病的原因和补救措施来满足波多黎各和全国西班牙裔人口的健康差异需求。
