DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Albany State University (ASU) proposed 'ASU MARC to BRIDGE' (where BRIDGE refers to "Bringing Research Intelligence for Deeper Growth and Exaltation") is designed to increase the number of minority students who pursue degrees in biomedical science. ASU plans to accomplish this goal through a variety of avenues that include the recruitment of well prepared Biology, Chemistry, Math and Computer Science majors and provide challenging academic education preparation and internship opportunities that would motivate applicants to seriously pursue biomedical science careers. The participants will follow a MARC specific curriculum. The curriculum will include the following courses: Research Ethics, Scientific Communication, Laboratory Research Techniques, Bioinformatics, and MARC Research. Additionally, students will be required to adhere to the following program guidelines: Participate in extramural research. All extramural research will be conducted at major research universities or governmental labs; Present their research findings at the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students (ABRCMS) Symposium and at another national scientific conference; Attend colloquium seminars series with invited guest researchers from major universities and industries; Attend advanced skills research technique workshops; Attend a series of tutorials on gate keeping courses offered by faculty aimed at scoring to be competitive for graduate school admission; Faculty participation in workshop aimed to implement innovative teaching strategy to improve student's learning. The proposed ASU' MARC to BRIDGE' program is designed to provide a cadre of activities that would motivate, and encourage students and bridge goal to increase the number of students who enter into and successfully complete Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. degree program in biomedical sciences. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed 'ASU MARC to BRIDGE' (where BRIDGE refers to "Bringing Research Intelligence for Deeper Growth and Exaltation") program will provide opportunities for the advance training of minority students. The MARC participants will be exposed to state-of-art methodologies in biomedical science research through a specialized curriculum, visiting scientist's seminars, workshops, extramural research, and attending and participating in local and national conferences. The students will have an opportunity to see visiting scientists as mentors and role models. The faculty and students may also develop their own research ideas or receive new research ideas by attending the seminars. The faculty will attend workshops aimed to implement innovating teaching pedagogies to improve student's learning. The students will be given the opportunity to present their work at scientific conferences. These efforts will lead to bridging our goal to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups in the biomedical science who enter into and successfully complete Ph.D. or M.D. /Ph.D. degree program. Publicity about the program and visiting scientists will enhance the college's visibility at the local, state, and national level.

描述（由申请人提供）：奥尔巴尼州立大学 (ASU) 提出“ASU MARC to BRIDGE”（其中 BRIDGE 指“为更深层次的成长和提升带来研究情报”）旨在增加攻读生物医学科学学位的少数族裔学生的数量。亚利桑那州立大学计划通过多种途径实现这一目标，包括招募准备充分的生物学、化学、数学和计算机科学专业的学生，​​并提供具有挑战性的学术教育准备和实习机会，以激励申请者认真从事生物医学科学职业。参与者将遵循 MARC 特定课程。课程将包括以下课程：研究伦理、科学传播、实验室研究技术、生物信息学和 MARC 研究。此外，学生将被要求遵守以下计划指南： 参加校外研究。所有校外​​研究都将在主要研究型大学或政府实验室进行；在少数民族学生年度生物医学研究会议（ABRCMS）研讨会和另一场全国科学会议上展示他们的研究成果；与来自主要大学和行业的特邀研究人员一起参加系列研讨会；参加高级技能研究技术研讨会；参加由教师提供的一系列关于把关课程的教程，旨在提高研究生入学竞争力；教师参加研讨会旨在实施创新教学策略以提高学生的学习。拟议的亚利桑那州立大学“MARC to BRIDGE”计划旨在提供一系列活动，激励和鼓励学生并实现桥梁目标，以增加进入并成功完成博士学位的学生数量。或医学博士/博士生物医学科学学位课程。 公共健康相关性：拟议的“ASU MARC to BRIDGE”（其中“BRIDGE”指的是“为更深层次的成长和提升带来研究情报”）计划将为少数族裔学生的高级培训提供机会。 MARC 参与者将通过专业课程、访问科学家的研讨会、讲习班、校外研究以及出席和参加地方和国家会议，接触生物医学科学研究的最先进方法。学生们将有机会将访问科学家视为导师和榜样。教师和学生还可以通过参加研讨会来发展自己的研究想法或获得新的研究想法。教师将参加旨在实施创新教学法以改善学生学习的研讨会。学生将有机会在科学会议上展示他们的作品。这些努力将有助于实现我们的目标，即增加来自生物医学科学领域代表性不足群体的学生数量，他们进入并成功完成博士学位。或医学博士/博士学位课程。关于该项目和访问科学家的宣传将提高学院在地方、州和国家层面的知名度。
