DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN) is to increase the access of underrepresented minority (URM) scholars to careers in science and improve the effectiveness of mentors who will help them successfully navigate the research career development pathway. Our team's vision for NRMN is based on a fundamental premise: The achievement of NRMN goals is dependent on not only connecting mentors (established researchers) with mentees (undergraduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, particularly from underrepresented minority groups), but also preparing both to be effective partners within the mentoring relationship. In other words, the NRMN must facilitate the establishment of mentoring relationships in biomedical training, while also broadening and deepening the impact of those mentoring relationships on the success and persistence of trainees and early-stage faculty investigators. For this reason, we are especially committed to evidence-based NRMN activities that will facilitate the trusting mentoring relationships needed to help individuals successfully navigate the entire research career development pathway. We have assembled an outstanding planning team for the NRMN, led by investigators drawn from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, University of Maryland, and University of Minnesota, who have complimentary expertise. Our specific aim for this six-month planning proposal is to design a sustainable infrastructure for the NRMN that cultivates diverse partnerships, capitalizes on multidisciplinary expertise and innovative technologies to build the leadership and operational capacities required to disseminate improved mentored research experiences of underrepresented minority trainees in biomedical research.

描述（由申请人提供）：国家研究指导网络（NRMN）的目标是增加代表性不足的少数民族（URM）学者进入科学职业的机会，并提高将帮助他们成功导航研究职业发展途径的导师的有效性。我们团队对NRMN的愿景是基于一个基本前提：NRMN目标的成就不仅取决于将导师（既定的研究人员）与受训者（本科生，博士后研究员和初级教职员工联系起来），尤其是来自少数人的少数族裔小组），而且还可以使两者都有有效的派对群体的准备。换句话说，NRMN必须促进在生物医学培训中建立指导关系，同时还扩大和加深了这些指导关系对受训者和早期教师研究人员的成功和持久性的影响。因此，我们特别致力于基于证据的NRMN活动，这些活动将有助于帮助个人成功地驾驶整个研究职业发展途径所需的信任指导关系。我们已经为NRMN组建了一个杰出的计划团队，由威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校，马里兰大学和明尼苏达大学的调查人员领导，他们拥有免费的专业知识。我们针对这项为期六个月的计划建议的具体目的是为NRMN设计一种可持续的基础设施，该基础架构培养了各种伙伴关系，利用了多学科专业知识和创新技术，以建立在生物培训中提供不足的少数群体受训者的改进的指导研究经验所需的领导能力和运营能力。
