 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The STAR Program completed its fifth year of funding in 2014 and we are resubmitting the grant for consideration. The Program has been an integral contributor in effectively training underrepresented minority, first generation, economically disadvantaged, and disabled students to pursue health, biomedical, and biobehavioral research pathways. The long-term objective of the Program's next five years is to expand its initiatives to increase from 71% to 75% the number of participants, entering and completing biomedical and behavioral majors and eventually matriculating into professional/graduate programs. To fulfill this objective, the UW STAR Program team proposes to bring together an expanded set of activities and a collaborative team of faculty and staff to implement its initiative. While continung to strengthen students' academic and technical skills, the Program will also focus on helping participants understand the role of heart, lung, and blood-related research and the subsequent impact of this research in addressing health disparities in underrepresented communities.

 描述（由申请人提供）：星星计划在2014年完成了第五年的资助，我们正在重新提交赠款供考虑。该计划一直在有效地培训代表性不足的少数民族，第一代，经济上处于不利地位，残疾学生追求健康，生物医学和生物行为研究途径的一个组成部分。该计划未来五年的长期目标是扩大其举措，将参与者人数从71%增加到75%，进入并完成生物医学和行为专业，并最终进入专业/研究生课程。为了实现这一目标，UW星星计划团队建议将一系列扩大的活动和一个由教职员工组成的协作团队聚集在一起，以实施其倡议。在继续加强学生学术和技术技能的同时，该计划还将重点帮助参与者了解心脏、肺和血液相关研究的作用，以及这项研究在解决代表性不足社区的健康差距方面的后续影响。(End摘要）
