U-RISE at Queens College, CUNY, Project Summary Despite advances in recent years, demographical data shows that underrepresented minorities continue to lag behind their Caucasian contemporaries in various STEM disciplines, both in terms of graduate degree completion and in terms of academic publications. Although the need for diversity in STEM is heralded, the means by which to accomplish this objective remains unclear, with initiatives implemented in graduate schools being too late to affect change. This grant requests support for Undergraduate Research Training Initiative for Student Enhancement (U-RISE) for Queens College (QC) at the City University of New York (CUNY). QC is a public university situated within the single most ethnically diverse region in the country. In servicing the borough of Queens, QC is a leader within the state and ranked fourth in the country for social mobility. QC has held an NIH Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) that has trained 116 students over 18 years in the biomedical sciences. Due to recent changes in QC's eligibility for MARC granting, we aim to leverage the current momentum to implement a U-RISE funding mechanism to support its existing training infrastructure for underrepresented undergraduates in biomedical research programs. QC also supports a vibrant research community of investigators with research programs funded by the NIH/ARO/NSF that span a range of disciplines intersecting with biomedical sciences. In this grant, we have identified faculty mentors dedicated to training undergraduates, a track record of advancing them to research- intensive careers, and a sincere commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) values. This effort is further supported by QC’s administration which intends to institutionalize undergraduate training in biomedical research through curricular offerings (formalized courses), professional development, ethics, and DEI workshops open to the broader QC undergraduate community. This U-RISE grant will continue to support the legacy established through NIH MARC U-STAR funding for community stakeholders by providing advanced research and professional development training to U-RISE students, as well as enhancing the research environment at Queens College as a whole, thereby affecting change for the many talented and diverse students who entrust us with their career success.

纽约市立大学皇后学院的 U-RISE，项目摘要 尽管近年来取得了进步，但人口统计数据显示，代表性不足的少数族裔 在各个 STEM 学科中，无论是在方面还是在方面，都继续落后于同时代的白人 研究生学位完成情况和学术出版物方面。虽然需要 STEM 的多样性受到欢迎，但实现这一目标的方法仍不清楚， 研究生院实施的举措为时已晚，无法影响变革。 这笔赠款请求支持学生本科生研究培训计划 纽约市立大学 (CUNY) 皇后学院 (QC) 的强化项目 (U-RISE)。质量控制 是一所公立大学，位于该国种族最多元化的地区。在 QC 为皇后区提供服务，在该州处于领先地位，在全国排名第四 为了社会流动性。 QC 举办了 NIH 最大化研究职业机会 (MARC) 活动， 在生物医学领域培训了 116 名学生超过 18 年。由于最近 QC 的变化 MARC 授予资格，我们的目标是利用当前的势头来实施 U-RISE 支持其现有的代表性不足的培训基础设施的筹资机制 生物医学研究项目的本科生。 QC 还支持充满活力的研究 由 NIH/ARO/NSF 资助的研究项目由研究人员组成，涵盖多个领域 与生物医学科学交叉的一系列学科。在这笔赠款中，我们确定了教师 致力于培养本科生的导师，在推动他们进入研究领域的记录- 密集的职业生涯，以及对多元化、公平和包容 (DEI) 价值观的真诚承诺。这 QC 行政部门进一步支持了这一努力，该行政部门打算将本科生制度化 通过课程设置（正规课程）进行生物医学研究培训，专业 发展、道德和 DEI 研讨会向更广泛的 QC 本科生群体开放。 这笔 U-RISE 赠款将继续支持通过 NIH MARC U-STAR 建立的遗产 通过提供先进的研究和专业知识为社区利益相关者提供资金 为 U-RISE 学生提供发展培训，并改善 U-RISE 的研究环境 皇后学院作为一个整体，从而影响许多才华横溢、多元化的学生的变化 他们将职业成功托付给我们。
