项目摘要

The STEM workforce, including the field of neuroscience, continues to lack racial and ethnic diversity, with only 40% of African American doctoral students completing their degree programs. To reduce the disparity in the representation of Black and Latin-X neuroscience trainees, this proposal establishes a unique fellowship that enhances the training and professional development provided to students enrolled at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU). More specifically, this fellowship will diversify our neuroscience curriculum, expand the network of neuroscience peer and traditional mentors of trainees, and help to establish trainees’ leadership in the field through undergraduate course development. All of these programs are intended to deepen the connection of our trainees to the field of neuroscience while providing supportive mechanisms to ensure their personal and professional success. North Carolina Central University and other minority serving institutions are primed to engage underrepresented minorities and increase the diversity of doctoral level trained neuroscientists.

包括神经科学领域在内的 STEM 劳动力仍然缺乏种族和民族多样性，只有 40% 的非裔美国博士生完成了学位课程。为了减少黑人和拉丁裔神经科学学员的代表性差异，该提案设立了一项独特的奖学金，以加强为就读历史黑人学院和大学 (HBCU) 的学生提供的培训和专业发展。更具体地说，该奖学金将使我们的神经科学课程多样化，扩大学员的神经科学同行和传统导师网络，并通过本科课程开发帮助学员建立在该领域的领导力。所有这些计划都旨在加深我们的学员与神经科学领域的联系，同时提供支持机制以确保他们的个人和职业成功。北卡罗来纳中央大学和其他少数族裔服务机构已准备好吸引代表性不足的少数族裔，并增加博士水平训练有素的神经科学家的多样性。
