项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY A diverse educational and scientific community is a vital component for developing a robust work force that can address the technological and social challenges of the U.S. in a new global economy. However, the access of students from disadvantaged social and economic backgrounds to graduate education (Ph.D. level) is still low in comparison with individuals from more privileged socioeconomic groups. This disparity is amplified during academic life, resulting in a lack of faculty diversity at most U.S. universities. To address this problem, the Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) program was established in 2008 at the University of California San Diego (UCSD), which focuses on motivating, mentoring, and facilitating the transition of students from disadvantaged economic and social backgrounds and students with disabilities from college to graduate school. The UCSD-IMSD program is composed of two consecutive phases directed at mentoring students from their initial college education to enrolling into a Ph.D. program in biomedical sciences. Phase 1 is directed at introducing freshmen students with no or limited prior research experience to scientific work via fundamental experimental instruction within the Basic Methodology Training Laboratory (BMTL). In this setting, students learn the essential research principles and skills (laboratory safety, basic techniques, data collection, and analysis) that will prepare them to participate in organized research projects. During Phase 2, students participate in hands-on, bench research projects under the mentorship of established, well-funded investigators, where they develop an appetite for science. Students are trained in several aspects of science, including experimental design, execution, data analysis and presentations, increasing their competitiveness as graduate school candidates. In addition, students are motivated to enroll into Ph.D. programs and are assisted during the process.

项目总结多元化的教育和科学社区是发展一支强大的劳动力队伍的重要组成部分，可以应对美国在新的全球经济中面临的技术和社会挑战。然而，访问来自弱势社会和经济背景的学生接受研究生教育(博士水平)的比例仍然较低与来自更有特权的社会经济群体的个人相比。这种差异在学术生活，导致大多数美国大学缺乏教师多样性。为了解决这个问题，学生最大限度发展倡议(IMSD)计划于2008年在华盛顿大学设立加州大学圣地亚哥分校(UCSD)，专注于激励、指导和促进经济和社会背景较差的学生和残疾学生从大学到研究生院。UCSD-IMSD项目由两个连续的阶段组成，旨在指导学生从最初的大学教育到进入生物医学科学博士项目。阶段1 旨在向没有或有限先前研究经验的大一学生介绍科学在基本方法论培训实验室内通过基础实验指导开展工作 (BMTL)。在这种环境下，学生学习基本的研究原则和技能(实验室安全、基础技术、数据收集和分析)，这将为他们参与有组织的研究项目做好准备。在第二阶段，学生在以下导师的指导下参与实践、板凳研究项目老牌的、资金充足的研究人员，他们培养了对科学的兴趣。学生们接受了关于科学的几个方面，包括实验设计、执行、数据分析和演示，提高他们作为研究生院候选人的竞争力。此外，学生们也有动力报名参加进入博士课程，并在此过程中得到协助。
