Project Summary/Abstract The Old Dominion University (ODU) Undergraduate Research Training Initiative for Student Enhancement (U-RISE) program will be a continuation of the current ODU Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) program. Overall, the U-RISE program will continue to increase participation of underrepresented (UR) undergraduate students in STEM research and increase the number of such students going onto doctoral programs and careers in biomedical sciences research. The ODU U-RISE program has four specific aims: (1) To recruit five cohorts of 6 juniors (steady state of 12 trainees) and 16 pre-U-RISE trainees (8 freshmen and 8 sophomores) from groups underrepresented in biomedical sciences, (2) To incorporate changes in U-RISE based on what we learned in the current MARC program and deliver a comprehensive support system to guide trainees through the two-year program, (3) To ensure that the U-RISE program is a rigorous academic and research-training program that prepares trainees for the challenges of graduate education, and (4) To ensure that trainees develop the communication, presentation, and networking skills required for a successful biomedical research career The pre-U-RISE trainees will be assigned to faculty mentors for guidance and retention. They will be engaged in mentored hands-on laboratory research experience and attend all U-RISE activities. They will apply to the U- RISE program and be selected based on their academic record and performance in the U-RISE activities. The program activities will include advanced instruction in software, programming, laboratory equipment, critical thinking, literature analysis, and professional development targeted specifically toward application to biomedical and behavioral Ph.D. programs. Responsible Conduct of Research training will be provided. The trainees will receive intensive training in presentation skills and scientific writing, ultimately resulting in presentation of their work at regional and national conferences, as well as publications in peer-reviewed journals. Further, they will be provided mentorship on the Graduate Record Examination preparation, graduate school preparation, and how to successfully compete for graduate fellowships. The U-RISE trainees will perform their research both in the laboratories of ODU mentors, as well as in laboratories of external collaborators at T32 funded universities and other biomedical research-intensive institutions. The Program Director will share administrative leadership responsibilities with a Co-Director and additional departmental liaison faculty members from the Colleges of Sciences, Engineering, and Health Sciences. A Program Manager will oversee day-to-day operations. Internal and external evaluators will assess the program execution process and its results. An Advisory Committee will provide oversight and feedback. Strong institutional support for the ODU U-RISE program is demonstrated through the letter of support from the Provost and the President.

项目摘要/摘要 老自治领大学(ODU)促进学生发展的本科生研究培训计划 (U-Rise)计划将是目前ODU最大限度地获得研究职业(MARC)的延续 程序。总体而言，U-Rise计划将继续增加代表性不足(UR)的参与率 STEM本科生研究并增加此类学生攻读博士学位的人数 生物医学科学研究的课程和职业。 ODU-RISE计划有四个具体目标：(1)招募5个队列，6名低年级学生(稳定状态为12人 实习生)和16名U-Rise之前的实习生(8名大一学生和8名大二学生)，来自以下群体 生物医学科学，(2)根据我们在当前MARC中所学到的内容，纳入U-Rise的变化 计划和提供全面的支持系统，以指导学员完成两年计划，(3) 确保U-Rise计划是一个严格的学术和研究培训计划，为学员做好准备 对于研究生教育的挑战，以及(4)确保学员发展沟通， 成功的生物医学研究生涯所需的演讲和网络技能 U-Rise之前的实习生将被分配给教师导师进行指导和保留。他们将订婚 在指导下实践实验室研究经验，并参加所有U-Rise活动。它们将适用于美国- RISE计划，并根据他们的学习成绩和在U-RISE活动中的表现被选中。 该计划的活动将包括软件、编程、实验室设备、 批判性思维、文献分析和专业发展，专门针对应用程序 生物医学和行为学博士课程。将提供负责任的研究培训。这个 学员将接受演讲技能和科学写作方面的强化培训，最终导致 在区域和国家会议上介绍他们的工作，并在同行评议的期刊上发表出版物。 此外，将为他们提供研究生入学考试准备、研究生院的指导 准备，以及如何成功竞争研究生奖学金。U-Rise实习生将表演他们的 在ODU导师的实验室以及在T32的外部合作者的实验室进行的研究 资助的大学和其他生物医学研究密集型机构。 计划主任将与一名联合主任和其他人员分担行政领导责任 来自科学学院、工程学院和健康科学学院的系级联络教员。一个 项目经理将监督日常运营。内部和外部评估者将评估该计划 执行过程及其结果。咨询委员会将提供监督和反馈。 通过支持函显示了对ODU U-Rise计划的强有力的机构支持 从教务长和总统那里。
