 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The dictionary defines training as "A process by which someone is taught the skills that are needed for an art, profession, or job", resilience as "The ability to become strong, healthy, or successful again after something bad happens", and self-efficacy as "The power to produce a desired result or effect." The goal of The Ohio State University DISCOVERY PREP is to strengthen all three of these elements in our postbaccalaureate scholars and to develop the belief in them that they will become skilled biomedical scientists who possess a sense of control over their environment, as well as the behavior needed to handle the challenging demands of graduate school. This is a competitive renewal application for years five through eight of a training program that will support seven postbaccalaureate scholars from underrepresented backgrounds pursuing entrance into a competitive graduate program in the biomedical sciences. Twenty-eight faculty members, one Associate Director of Career Counseling, and two resource staff provide not only intensive laboratory research training, but also relevant professional development guidance. The faculty research expertise is diverse, and is complemented by successful funding, publications, and training of Ph.D. students, some of whom have been from underrepresented backgrounds. The career-counseling component of the Program is excellent and contributes much toward enhancing resiliency and self-efficacy. During the four years of initial funding, the DISCOVERY PREP supported 17 scholars, which included an additional trainee added with cost-sharing support from the College of Medicine. All 17 scholars enrolled in a graduate program, of which eleven enrolled in a Ph.D., one in an M.S. program, two applied in 2014 for a 2015 enrollment, and two chose other forms of work in science. This yielded an enrollment success rate of 72%, excluding the Masters student, which will increase to 82% when the two late applicants are enrolled in 2015. Most of our scholars have gone on to pursue their graduate degree in programs throughout the US, with 30% remaining at The Ohio State University. Our scholars have been productive in publishing, and some graduates have already received fellowships and awards from their respective graduate universities, the NSF, or national organizations. We continue to revise and optimize our Program to meet the needs of our scholars so that they will become the diverse scientific workforce of the future, as well as diverse scientific leaders of the future. The renewal of this grant is critical to support our continuing efforts to promote research training, resiliency, and self-efficacy in postbaccalaureate scholars from underrepresented backgrounds so that they believe in their capabilities to become a scientific leader of tomorrow.

 字典将培训定义为“一个过程，通过这个过程，某人被教导艺术，专业或工作所需的技能”，弹性是“在发生坏事后再次变得强壮，健康或成功的能力”，自我效能是“产生预期结果或效果的力量”。“该俄亥俄州州立大学发现准备的目标是加强所有这三个元素在我们的学士后学者和发展他们的信念，他们将成为熟练的生物医学科学家谁拥有对他们的环境控制感，以及需要处理研究生院的挑战性要求的行为。这是一个竞争性的更新应用程序的第五年到第八年的培训计划，将支持七个来自代表性不足的背景追求进入生物医学科学的竞争性研究生课程的学士后学者。28名教师，一名职业咨询副主任和两名资源人员不仅提供密集的实验室研究培训，还提供相关的专业发展指导。教师的研究专业知识是多样化的，并通过成功的资金，出版物和博士培训的补充。学生，其中一些人来自代表性不足的背景。该方案的职业咨询部分非常出色，对提高复原力和自我效能有很大贡献。在最初资助的四年中，DISCOVERY PREP支持了17名学者，其中包括一名额外的实习生，以及医学院的费用分摊支持。所有17名学者都参加了研究生课程，其中11人参加了博士课程，一个是多发性硬化症计划，两人在2014年申请2015年入学，两人选择了其他形式的科学工作。这产生了72%的入学成功率，不包括硕士生，这将增加到82%时，两个晚申请人在2015年入学。我们的大多数学者都继续在美国各地攻读研究生学位，其中30%留在俄亥俄州州立大学。我们的学者在出版方面卓有成效，一些毕业生已经获得了各自研究生院，NSF或国家组织的奖学金和奖项。我们继续修改和优化我们的计划，以满足我们的学者的需求，使他们成为未来的多元化科学劳动力，以及多元化的科学领导者。 未来这项拨款的续期对支持我们继续努力促进研究至关重要 培训，弹性和自我效能感在学士后学者从代表性不足的背景，使他们相信自己的能力，成为未来的科学领导者。
