中文摘要
项目摘要:
黑人、拉丁美洲人和美洲原住民学生的学习成绩远远落后于白色和亚洲学生。
在科学就业和学术课程中的代表性。这种悬殊尤为明显
在种族多元化的加州湾区,生物医学和工程机会丰富。
与全国其他地区类似,有色人种学生的代表性一直不足。例如,在2013年,
11%的美国劳动力是黑人,但只有6%的科学工作是黑人。在
相比之下,白色和亚洲人从事科学工作的可能性是美国人的3倍。
国内劳动力。尽管经过几十年的立法和政策变化,这些统计数据已经发生了变化
至少超过30年。自成立以来,奥克兰儿童医院研究所(CHORI)
解决我们社区中的这些差异是一项使命目标。为此,Chori创造了一个夏天,
学生研究计划(SSRP)近四十年前,以促进生物医学培训的多样性,
提供一个短期的,一对一的指导研究经验,以代表性不足的学生与潜力
为具有文化代表性的科学研究队伍做出重大贡献。38年来,我们
获得了不间断的资金来开发该计划,同时通过增加
培训和经验,将吸引现代学生。下一个创新我们称之为“刺激”
美国代表性不足的学习者的科学和技术沉浸-寻求利用R25
在未来五年内,每年支持18名本科生或卫生专业学生。与
刺激,现有的计划基础设施将升级,以加强我们的课程,以更好地匹配
学生的多样性和科学市场不断变化的需求。这个多方面的建议
提供了许多增强功能,包括与加州伯克利大学
更全面的培训讲习班,扩大从区域管道征聘人员
项目和历史上的黑人大学,正式的近同行指导计划,增强校友
跟踪和评估,以及创新的基于案例的生物伦理教育方法。我们预计这些
计划的改进将使我们能够接触到更多代表性不足的学生,并有一个更持久的
对选定的学生的影响,以追求在生物医学或临床研究的职业生涯,通过刺激他们的
兴趣,武装他们与实际的专业发展技能,并增加他们对科学的信心,
从而提高他们在科学技术工程数学(STEM)劳动力中成功的可能性。
英文摘要
Project Summary:
Black, Latino, and Native American students fall far behind their White and Asian counterparts in
representation within science employment and academic programs. This disparity is especially noticeable
within the ethnically-diverse California Bay Area that is rich in biomedical and engineering opportunities.
Similar to other parts of the country, students of color are consistently underrepresented. For example, in 2013,
11% of the U.S. workforce was Black but only 6% of those employed in science jobs were Black. In
comparison, White and Asians are 3-times more likely to be employed in science jobs compared to the
domestic workforce. Despite decades of legislation and policy changes, these statistics have changed
minimally over 30 years. Since its founding, Children’s Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI) has set
addressing these disparities in our community as a mission objective. To that end, CHORI created a Summer
Student Research Program (SSRP) nearly four decades ago to promote diversity in biomedical training by
providing a short-term, one-on-one mentored research experience to underrepresented students with potential
to significantly contribute to a culturally-representative scientific research workforce. For 38 years, we have
secured uninterrupted funding to develop this program while continuing to expand and improve by adding
training and experiences that will appeal to the modern student. The next innovation we call STIMULUS –
Science & Technology IMmersion for Underrepresented Learners in the US – seeks to utilize the R25
mechanism to support 18 undergraduate or health professional students each year for the next five years. With
STIMULUS, the existing program infrastructure will be upgraded to strengthen our curriculum to better match
the diversity of the students and evolving needs of the scientific marketplace. This multi-faceted proposal
provides many enhancements, including a new collaboration with the University of California Berkeley, School
of Bioengineering, more comprehensive training workshops, expanded recruiting from regional pipeline
programs and historically black colleges, formalized program for near-peer mentoring, enhanced alumni
tracking and evaluation, and an innovative case-based approach for bioethics education. We expect these
program enhancements will allow us to reach more under-represented students and have a longer-lasting
impact on the selected students to pursue a career in biomedical or clinical research by stimulating their
interest, arming them with practical professional development skills, and increasing their confidence in science,
thereby improving their likelihood of success in the Science Technology Engineering Math (STEM) workforce.
