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.

项目摘要/摘要 这是一种新的最大化研究生涯的机会（MARC）T34，以支持Emory的本科培训 大学。拟议的培训是基于到期的（2023年结束的，当时拟议的MARC T34将开始） 结合本科和研究生的学生发展计划（IMSD）计划 编程。拟议的MARC T34添加了专注于提供本科生的创新组件 具有基于询问的研究经验的学生和一个包容性的支持社区，以便他们完成 他们的学士学位，过渡到完整的生物医学，以研究为重点的高级计划 （例如，博士学位或医学博士/博士学位）。 Emory的研究培训机会包括一系列生物医学，公众 健康和其他STEM学科。跨学科的学术文化和环境与 生物医学研究方面的广泛专业知识使埃默里成为培训下一代的肥沃环境 科学领袖。这个雄心勃勃的拟议T34将支持20个马克学者（10名大三和10 老年人）从毕业初中的夏天开始。 MARC活动被设计为 补充学位要求，以避免马克学者增加负担。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，该研讨会 提供了一个包容性的社区，以增强科学身份，包括基于技能的学习来补充 基于学科的培训，并提供了获得专业发展和网络机会的访问权限。其他 MARC培训活动采用证据信息的方法来培训学生进行重要的科学实践 例如数据可重复性和负责任的研究。该计划的创新方面包括 经验丰富且多样化的MPI领导团队为学生培训带来不同的技能，包括专门的培训 本科研究计划高级主任的努力。一位专职MARC助理导演带来 通过学术节目和咨询来推动学生成功和保留的丰富经验 对于领导团队来说，研究生联络人是榜样和近per的导师。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要求所有教职员工的年度导师培训以建立包容性研究 环境。接纳学生的深度，他们有资格获得T34支持的资格 训练的记录和增强影响的潜力为这一提议提供了强大的理由 培训计划。具体目标是：1）招募约100名来自代表性不足群体的学生 在T34的5年期间，为这些学生提供了在A中完成其BS学位的工具 及时的时尚，攻读博士学位或医学博士学位，并在生物医学劳动力中绘制成功的职业轨迹； 2）确保Marc学者通过至少一份出版物做出贡献来获得科学家的代理 可以在他们毕业后出版，并在当地和全国科学会议上介绍他们的作品。
