UPR-IPERT Project Summary The US faces the urgent need to develop a diverse biomedical science workforce, trained with the breadth and flexibility necessary to meet unpredictable future challenges in health science. The University of Puerto Rico system is the bachelor's source institution of ~15% of US Hispanic PhDs in the natural and social sciences, although only ~4.5% of US Hispanic undergraduates in these disciplines attend UPR. Therefore UPR is well positioned to help meet this national need. With IPERT the UPR will be able to prepare more undergraduates and junior faculty to meet the nation's biomedical research needs. The program targets undergraduate students from socially disadvantaged backgrounds and disciplines not usually linked to biomedical research, as well as junior faculty members at Predominantly Undergraduate Institutions (PUIs) who have not benefited from training programs commonly available at research-intensive institutions. UPR-IPERT will expand and enhance existing training efforts by developing participants (not just selecting talent) with innovative activities that have a multi- campus reach and that fill unmet gaps in existing research training programs to achieve system- wide impacts. UPR-IPERT will be administered by UPR-Cayey in collaboration with UPR- Humacao, the two undergraduate units in UPR with most experience in research training programs. A collaborative partnership with a) the other nine UPR campuses; b) the Yale- CienciaPR network and the NIH National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN); and c) the multi-campus training programs NIH-Puerto Rico-INBRE and NSF-Puerto Rico Luis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation gives UPR-IPERT a wide reach across public and private universities, and among Puerto Ricans/ Hispanics at mainland institutions. The larger objective of UPR-IPERT is to enhance responsiveness to the changing needs of the biomedical workforce with a wide-reaching, multi-faceted, and multidisciplinary training model suited for PUIs. UPR- IPERT will complement existing training programs with a phased approach that goes from recruitment, to retention, to skills development, and to dissemination and outreach. Diversity, resilience, multidisciplinarity, empowerment, and social commitment will be the guiding principles. The Specific Aims are: 1) Recruit for diversity, by targeting undergraduates from socioeconomically disadvantage backgrounds, and students and faculty from non-traditional disciplines using innovative activities including the IPERT Theater Co. 2) Build resilience for perseverance through the pipeline through online support networks, coaching, mentoring, and writing groups. 3) Build multidisciplinary skills for empowerment and versatility, through a module series and more intensive courses on research skills for different social and natural sciences, and quantitative skills workshops. 4) Provide social insight for increased social and scientific commitment, through modules on the social context of health, community outreach, and travel to meetings for broader dissemination. UPR-IPERT is expected serve as a model program and to make a significant contribution in training Hispanic biomedical scientists.

UPR-IPERT项目摘要 美国迫切需要发展多样化的生物医学科学劳动力， 应对健康科学领域不可预测的未来挑战所需的广度和灵活性。 波多黎各系统的大学是学士学位的来源机构约15%的美国 西班牙裔博士在自然和社会科学，虽然只有~4.5%的美国西班牙裔 这些学科的本科生参加普遍定期审议。因此，普遍定期审议完全有能力帮助满足 这个国家的需要。有了IPERT，普遍定期审议将能够为更多的本科生和大三学生做好准备。 以满足国家生物医学研究的需要。该计划针对本科生 来自社会弱势背景和学科的学生通常与 生物医学研究，以及主要本科生的初级教师 未能受惠于下列一般培训计划的院校： 研究密集型机构。普遍定期审议-促进平等和不歧视专家小组将扩大和加强现有的培训工作， 通过创新活动培养参与者（而不仅仅是选择人才）， 校园覆盖面，填补了现有研究培训计划的空白，以实现系统- 广泛的影响。UPR-IPERT将由UPR-Cayey与UPR- Humacao是普遍定期审议中最具研究培训经验的两个本科单位 程序.与a）其他九个普遍定期审议校区; B）耶鲁大学- CienciaPR网络和NIH国家研究指导网络（NRMN）;以及c） 多校区培训计划NIH-波多黎各-INBRE和NSF-波多黎各Luis Stokes 少数群体参与联盟使UPR-IPERT在公共和私营部门广泛接触 在大学中，以及在大陆机构中的波多黎各人/西班牙裔人。更大的目标 UPR-IPERT的目标是提高对生物医学劳动力不断变化的需求的响应能力。 一个广泛的，多方面的，和多学科的培训模式适合PUI。普遍定期审议- IPERT将通过分阶段的方法补充现有的培训计划， 征聘、留用、技能发展以及传播和外联。多样性， 弹性，多学科，授权和社会承诺将是指导 原则具体目标是：1）招聘多样性，通过针对本科生从 社会经济上处于不利地位的背景，学生和教师来自非传统 学科使用创新活动，包括IPERT剧院公司2）建立弹性， 通过在线支持网络，辅导，指导， 写作小组。3)培养多学科技能，通过 模块系列和更密集的课程，研究技能，为不同的社会和自然 科学和定量技能讲习班。4)提供社会洞察力， 科学承诺，通过关于健康的社会背景、社区外联、 和出席会议的差旅费，以便进行更广泛的传播。UPR-IPERT预计将作为一个模型， 计划，并在培训西班牙裔生物医学科学家作出重大贡献。
