DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application will establish a cross-institutional 'team-research' and inter-institutional networking (TRAINing) program between Brown University and four minority serving institutions (MSIs). The program will be established by developing collaborative pilot research projects between six faculty-led undergraduate student teams from MSIs and six faculty-led research teams at Brown. The research projects carried out will be used as mechanisms by which MSI undergraduate students become more engaged in research acivities that raise their likelihood of pursuing graduate careers, MSI faculty sustain and expand their research practices, and Brown University faculty to build their research programs and develop collaborations while mentoring prospective graduate candidates. The program's broad and long-term goals are to 1) support research training in the biomedical and behaviorial sciences and 2) attract and retain under-represented [UR: minority and disadvantaged] trainees in the sciences. It also simultaneously supports the career development of UR and non-UR faculty at MSIs and at Brown. The program will take advantage of the pre-exisiting inter-institutional partnership we have established with three of the MSIs through our graduate IMSD program. As a result, it will be shaped by the ongoing maturation of our relationships with MSIs and the common desire to establish programs that strengthen the U.S. national biomedical research enterprise and increase workforce diversity. This MARC Ancillary program will actualize the optimal environments for graduate prospects, role models, colleagues and collaborators to work together and will foster a stronger and more integrated 'education-to research training-to career development' culture among participants. The specific aims are to 1) Establish joint projects between MSIs and Brown University faculty to strengthen academic capacity & outcomes through student-linked pilot projects. 2) Expand research opportunities & training experiences for UR students by establishing more a refined 'summer- away research experience' that is linked to academic year experiences and 3) Support faculty ancillary training through reciprocal mini-internships, exchanges and sabbaticals.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请将建立一个跨机构的“团队研究”和跨机构网络（培训）布朗大学和四个少数民族服务机构（MSI）之间的计划。该计划将通过在麻省理工学院的六个教师领导的本科生团队和布朗大学的六个教师领导的研究团队之间开发合作试点研究项目来建立。开展的研究项目将被用作机制，通过该机制，MSI本科生变得更加参与研究活动，提高他们追求研究生职业的可能性，MSI教师维持和扩大他们的研究实践，布朗大学教师建立他们的研究计划并发展合作，同时指导未来的研究生候选人。该计划的广泛和长期目标是：1）支持生物医学和行为科学的研究培训，2）吸引和留住科学领域代表性不足的学员。它还同时支持UR和非UR教师在MSIs和布朗的职业发展。该计划将利用我们通过研究生IMSD计划与三个MSI建立的预认证机构间合作伙伴关系。因此，它将由我们与MSI关系的不断成熟以及建立加强美国国家生物医学研究企业和增加劳动力多样性的计划的共同愿望所塑造。这个MARC辅助计划将实现最佳环境的毕业生前景，榜样，同事和合作者一起工作，并将促进参与者之间更强大，更集成的“教育，研究培训，职业发展”文化。具体目标是：1）建立MSI和布朗大学教师之间的联合项目，通过与学生联系的试点项目加强学术能力和成果。2)通过建立与学年经验相关的更精致的“夏季研究经验”，为UR学生扩大研究机会和培训经验，3）通过互惠的小型实习，交流和休假支持教师辅助培训。
