PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This is a new Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) T34 to support undergraduate training at Emory University. The proposed training builds on an expiring (ends in 2023 when the proposed MARC T34 would start) Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) program that combines undergraduate and graduate programming. The proposed MARC T34 adds innovative components focused on providing undergraduate students with inquiry-based research experiences and an inclusive, supportive community so they can complete their baccalaureate degree, transition into, and complete biomedical, research-focused higher degree programs (e.g., PhD or MD/PhD). Research training opportunities at Emory include a broad array of biomedical, public health, and other STEM disciplines. An interdisciplinary academic culture and environment coupled with extensive expertise in biomedical research makes Emory a fertile environment for training the next generation of scientific leaders. This ambitious proposed T34 will support a cohort of 20 MARC Scholars (10 juniors and 10 seniors) starting in the summer prior to junior year through graduation. MARC activities are designed to complement degree requirements to avoid an undue added burden on MARC Scholars. The primary activity supporting the proposed MARC training is an existing 1-credit Professional Development Seminar, which provides an inclusive community that bolsters scientific identity, includes skills-based learning to supplement discipline-based training, and provides access to professional development and networking opportunities. Other MARC training activities use evidence-informed approaches to train students in important scientific practices such as data reproducibility and responsible conduct of research. Innovative aspects of the program include an experienced and diverse MPI leadership team that brings distinct skills to student training, including dedicated effort from the Senior Director of Undergraduate Research Programs. A full-time MARC Assistant Director brings extensive experience in driving student success and retention through academic programming and counseling to the leadership team, while a Graduate Student liaison serves as a role model and near-peer mentor. This multi-level mentoring structure allows individualized attention to the success and wellbeing of MARC Scholars. Furthermore, the T34 mandates annual mentor training for ALL faculty preceptors to build an inclusive research environment. The depth of the pool of admitted students who would be eligible for T34 support combined with the track record of training and the potential for enhanced impact provide strong rationale for this proposed training program. The specific objectives are to: 1) recruit ~100 students from underrepresented groups at Emory during the 5-year term of the T34 and provide these students with the tools to complete their BS degrees in a timely fashion, proceed to a PhD or MD/PhD, and plot a successful career trajectory in the biomedical workforce; and 2) ensure that MARC Scholars acquire agency as scientists by contributing to at least one publication, which may be published after they graduate, and presenting their work both locally and at a national scientific meeting.

项目总结/摘要 这是一个新的最大限度地获得研究职业（MARC）T34，以支持在埃默里大学的本科生培训 大学拟议的培训建立在一个到期（在2023年结束时，拟议的MARC T34将开始） 最大化学生发展计划（IMSD）计划，结合本科生和研究生 编程.拟议的MARC T34增加了创新的组成部分，重点是为本科生提供 学生以探究为基础的研究经验和包容性，支持社区，使他们能够完成 他们的学士学位，过渡到，并完成生物医学，研究为重点的高等学位课程 (e.g., PhD或MD/PhD）。埃默里大学的研究培训机会包括广泛的生物医学、公共卫生和生物医学领域。 健康和其他STEM学科。跨学科的学术文化和环境， 在生物医学研究方面的广泛专业知识使埃默里成为培养下一代的肥沃环境 科学领导者。这个雄心勃勃的T34计划将支持20名MARC学者（10名大三学生和10名 大四学生）从大三之前的夏天开始，直到毕业。MARC活动旨在 补充学位要求，以避免对MARC学者不必要的额外负担。的主要活动 支持拟议的MARC培训是现有的1学分专业发展研讨会， 提供了一个包容性的社区，支持科学身份，包括基于技能的学习，以补充 以学科为基础的培训，并提供专业发展和建立网络的机会。其他 MARC培训活动使用循证方法对学生进行重要科学实践的培训 例如数据可重复性和负责任地进行研究。该计划的创新方面包括 经验丰富，多元化的MPI领导团队，为学生培训带来独特的技能，包括专门的 本科生研究计划高级主任的努力。全职MARC助理主任带来 在通过学术规划和咨询推动学生成功和保留方面拥有丰富的经验 领导团队，而研究生联络充当榜样和近同行导师。这 多层次的指导结构允许个性化关注MARC学者的成功和福祉。 此外，T34要求对所有教师进行年度导师培训，以建立包容性的研究 环境有资格获得T34支持的被录取学生的深度， 培训的跟踪记录和增强影响的潜力为这一提议提供了强有力的理由 培训计划。具体目标是：1）从埃默里大学代表性不足的群体中招募约100名学生 在T34的5年任期，并为这些学生提供工具，以完成他们的学士学位， 及时的时尚，继续攻读博士学位或医学博士/博士学位，并在生物医学劳动力中绘制成功的职业轨迹; 2）确保MARC学者通过至少为一种出版物做出贡献而获得科学家的代理权， 他们毕业后可能会出版，并在当地和国家科学会议上展示他们的工作。
