项目摘要
A postbaccalaureate research experience program (PREP) will be developed at Michigan State University (MSU) that builds on existing relationships developed between MSU and minority serving institutions (MSIs) both on the US mainland and in Puerto Rico. The goal of this PREP is to increase the number of under-represented minority, disabled or disadvantaged (URMDD) Ph.D.s trained in the biomedical/behavioral sciences by facilitating entry of students into high quality and highly competitive mainland Ph.D. or dual degree (M.D./Ph.D., D.O./Ph.D., D.V.M./Ph.D) programs and enhancing their likeliness of success in those programs. The program is based on five years of successful pilot data demonstrating our ability to identify qualified URMDD students and effectively move them into competitive Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. programs. Annual support is sought for 7 “post-bac” students who will be placed in productive research laboratories which are actively funded by federal grants. Institutional support will provide an additional position annually. A broad recruiting strategy will be employed with expanded recruiting both in Puerto Rico, and on the US mainland. Several MSIs have agreed to partner with the proposed PREP, providing a cadre of well qualified URMDD students from a range of racial and ethnic backgrounds, as well as financially disadvantaged students. An individual development program will be created for each PREP student which will aim to identify courses and a research mentor best suited for each student. Students will undertake a individualized hypothesis-directed research project. Each PREP student will also be assigned a grad student mentor who will be a Ph.D. student in the same, or closely aligned area of scientific interest. In most cases, the mentor will themselves be of a URMDD class. PREP student progress in both course work and research will be closely monitored. In addition, all students will take a semester-long course (2 credits) stressing translational and interdisciplinary approaches to understanding the etiology of human disease, which will entail significant practice in writing, as well as an integral journal club. All students will take a biostatistics course during the summer, and will prepare a one-aim, 10 pp paper simulating a preliminary exam format. Planned additional enrichment activities include help with writing personal statements for graduate applications; mock interviews; assistance in completing graduate applications; GRE preparation; and travel to scientific meetings. Improvement of communication skills will involve both informal and more formalized settings (research presentations, participation in class, journal club
participation and paper writing). Through these combined activities, the student will become more confident in the
application process, present a more competitive application and make valuable contacts (network) with researchers at MSU and elsewhere. The net result should be an increased the number of URMDD students accepted into highly competitive Ph.D. programs in the biomedical/behavioral sciences, and a more effective progression of these students to completion of their degree.
密歇根州立大学 (MSU) 将开发学士学位后研究体验项目 (PREP),该项目建立在密歇根州立大学与美国大陆和波多黎各少数族裔服务机构 (MSI) 之间建立的现有关系的基础上。该 PREP 的目标是通过促进学生进入高质量且竞争激烈的大陆博士学位课程,增加接受生物医学/行为科学培训的少数族裔、残疾人或弱势群体 (URMDD) 博士的数量。或双学位(M.D./Ph.D.、D.O./Ph.D.、D.V.M./Ph.D.)课程,并提高他们在这些课程中成功的可能性。该计划基于五年的成功试点数据,证明我们有能力识别合格的 UMDD 学生并有效地将他们转入有竞争力的博士学位。或医学博士/博士程序。每年为 7 名“本科毕业”学生寻求支持,他们将被安置在由联邦拨款积极资助的富有成效的研究实验室。机构支持每年将提供一个额外职位。将采用广泛的招募策略,扩大波多黎各和美国大陆的招募规模。一些 MSI 已同意与拟议的 PREP 合作,提供一批来自不同种族和民族背景的合格 UMDD 学生以及经济困难学生。将为每个 PREP 学生创建一个个人发展计划,旨在确定最适合每个学生的课程和研究导师。学生将开展一个以假设为导向的个性化研究项目。每个 PREP 学生还将被分配一名研究生导师,他将是一名博士。同一或密切相关的科学兴趣领域的学生。在大多数情况下,导师本身就是 URMDD 类别的。 PREP 学生在课程作业和研究方面的进展将受到密切监控。此外,所有学生都将参加为期一个学期的课程(2个学分),强调通过转化和跨学科方法来理解人类疾病的病因学,这将需要大量的写作练习,以及一个完整的期刊俱乐部。所有学生都将在暑假期间参加生物统计学课程,并准备一份模拟初步考试格式的 10 页纸。计划的额外丰富活动包括帮助撰写研究生申请的个人陈述;模拟面试;协助完成研究生申请; GRE 准备;以及前往参加科学会议。沟通技巧的提高将涉及非正式和更正式的环境(研究报告、课堂参与、期刊俱乐部
参与和论文写作)。通过这些综合活动,学生将变得更加自信
申请流程,提出更具竞争力的申请,并与密歇根州立大学和其他地方的研究人员建立有价值的联系(网络)。最终结果应该是增加被竞争激烈的博士生录取的 UMDD 学生数量。生物医学/行为科学课程,以及这些学生更有效地完成学位。
