PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The mission of the Intermountain PREP (IM-PREP) is to build a diverse biomedical research workforce reflecting the talent pool of our diverse population. The University of Utah is committed to fortifying, sustaining, and amplifying the STEM pipeline that trains and launches a diverse research workforce. IM-PREP will specifically address the leaks in the pipeline leading from undergraduate to doctoral training of groups underrepresented in STEM. IM-PREP will recruit students from diverse backgrounds, including pipeline relationships with Historically Black Colleges and Universities. These students demonstrate a strong drive for research and would benefit from additional research-intensive training experiences and professional development, enhancing both their successful transition to top-tier doctoral programs, as well as their long-term retention in PhD-based career tracks. In order to accomplish these goals, IM-PREP will provide key proposed activities that include (1) holistic, culturally-competent mentored experiences to undertake hypothesis-driven research; (2) scientific coursework and professional workshops that enhance strong oral and written communication skills, and instill successful strategies for applying to graduate school; (3) an innovative, inclusive support system that develops and implements an Individual Development Plan (IDP), in a mastery learning context, to enhance trainee self-efficacy and authentic scientific identity. Throughout the training process, we employ a matrix mentoring approach that incorporates peer and near-peer support, cultural STEM communities and diverse role-models. Our approach is built on University-wide momentum and infrastructure dedicated to supporting STEM equity, diversity and inclusion. As part of its institutional commitment, the University of Utah funded a pilot IM-PREP program beginning last spring, and we have shaped our proposed extramural program based on practical experience developing and leading the IM-PREP pilot and mentoring its diverse trainees. We are confident that IM-PREP will fortify its Scholars’ critical thinking and research mastery and develop a resilient mindset to persist in graduate training and beyond, where they will join and lead a more diverse biomedical research enterprise.

项目总结/摘要 Intermountain PREP（IM-PREP）的使命是建立一支多样化的生物医学研究队伍， 我们多元化人口的人才库。犹他州的大学致力于巩固，维持， 扩大STEM管道，培训和启动多元化的研究队伍。IM-PREP将特别 解决从本科生到博士生培训的渠道中的漏洞， 茎IM-PREP将招收来自不同背景的学生，包括与历史上的管道关系 黑人学院和大学这些学生表现出强烈的研究动力，并将受益于 额外的研究密集型培训经验和专业发展，提高他们的 成功过渡到顶级博士课程，以及他们在博士为基础的职业生涯的长期保留 跟踪.为了实现这些目标，IM-PREP将提供关键的拟议活动，包括（1）整体， 文化能力的指导经验，以进行假设驱动的研究;（2）科学课程 和专业研讨会，提高强大的口头和书面沟通技巧，并灌输成功的 申请研究生院的策略;（3）一个创新的，包容性的支持系统， 实施个人发展计划（IDP），在掌握学习的背景下，以提高学员的自我效能 和真实的科学身份在整个培训过程中，我们采用矩阵指导方法， 结合了同侪和近同侪的支持，文化STEM社区和不同的角色模型。我们的做法是 建立在大学范围内的势头和基础设施，致力于支持STEM公平，多样性和 包容。作为其机构承诺的一部分，犹他州大学资助了一个试点IM-PREP计划 从去年春天开始，我们已经根据实际经验制定了我们提出的校外计划， 开发和领导IM-PREP试点项目，并指导其多样化的学员。我们相信IM-PREP 将加强其学者的批判性思维和研究掌握，并培养一个有弹性的心态，坚持研究生 培训和超越，在那里他们将加入并领导一个更多样化的生物医学研究企业。
