DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The United States is a leader in scientific research and training but the workforce, especially at the most competitive levels, remains less diverse than the general population. In a country where underrepresented minorities amount to approximately 30% of the population, the collective number of doctorates being produced annually in the Life Sciences and reflected in the STEM disciplines remain below 10%, This is even less among the faculty and training population at the major research centers in the country. The American Society for Cell Biology Minorities Affairs Committee has for several years provided national leadership in broadening participation in scientific research. We seek to continue this work through a number of innovative activities that are driven by two overarching aims: 1. Increase participation of underrepresented minorities in the scholarly activities of the American Society for Cell Biology. 2. Provide training opportunities for URM scientists at all levels in the pipeline. The activities under these goals include outreach (Linkage Fellows), training and development (Career development workshops, short courses at the Marine Biological Laboratory and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), travel awards to the ASCB annual meetings, and mentoring programs impacting undergraduate through professional levels. These goals are to be accomplished through activities that have benefited from a very rigorous evaluation effort in past years that have informed their proven effectiveness. Some of these activities have grown in response to tremendous demand as reflected in participation and interest. Second, we have added activities such as a mentoring program that reflect the stated needs of the community. Consistent with general efforts we seek to increase the number of underrepresented minorities in science careers, however, we have developed two major foci in this respect. First, we seek to aggressively develop faculty and students at the minority serving institutions where the URM faculty and student populations tend to concentrate. Second, we have developed activities that will broaden access and opportunities for URM scientists to train and pursue their professional goals at our most competitive research institutions. Our track record of accomplishment, the level of innovation in our programs and diligent evaluation efforts will maximize the impact of our programs and activities in making the scientific workforce better reflect the general population. This will expand access to the education, training and employment in scientific research careers to a segment of the population expected to comprise a majority by the year 2042. RELEVANCE: This program is aimed at increasing the level of participation of underrepresented minorities in research careers. Diversity in these careers, especially in leadership positions has direct relevance to science policy and resource allocation that in turn have direct implications on health disparities and training.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国是科学研究和培训的领导者，但劳动力，尤其是在最具竞争力的水平上，比一般人群的多样化程度少。在一个人口不足的人口约为30％的国家中，每年在生命科学中生产的集体博士学位和在STEM学科中的反思仍低于10％，在该国主要研究中心的教职员工和培训人群中，这甚至较少。美国细胞生物学少数民族事务委员会多年来一直在扩大参与科学研究的国家领导。我们试图通过许多由两个总体目的驱动的创新活动来继续这项工作：1。增加代表性不足的少数群体参与美国细胞生物学学会的学术活动。 2。为管道中各个级别的URM科学家提供培训机会。这些目标下的活动包括外展（联合研究员），培训和发展（职业发展研讨会，海洋生物实验室和冷泉港实验室的短期课程），ASCB年度会议的旅行奖以及通过专业级别影响本科生的指导计划。这些目标应通过在过去几年中非常严格的评估工作中受益的活动来实现，这些活动使他们有效的有效性。这些活动中的一些因参与和兴趣所反映的巨大需求而发展。其次，我们添加了诸如指导计划之类的活动，以反映社区的既定需求。与一般努力一致，我们试图增加科学职业中代表性不足的少数群体的数量，但是，在这方面，我们已经开发了两个主要重点。首先，我们试图在为URM教师和学生群体倾向于集中精力的少数派服务机构中积极发展教职员工和学生。其次，我们开发了活动，将扩大URM科学家在我们最有竞争力的研究机构训练和实现其专业目标的机会和机会。我们的成就记录，计划中的创新水平以及勤奋的评估工作将最大程度地提高我们的计划和活动对使科学劳动力更好地反映普通人群的影响。这将扩大对科学研究职业的教育，培训和就业的机会，到预计到2042年将占多数的人口。 相关性：该计划的目的是提高代表性不足少数群体从事研究职业的参与水平。这些职业的多样性，尤其是在领导职务中，与科学政策和资源分配有直接相关，而科学政策和资源分配又对健康差异和培训产生了直接影响。
