DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the proposed IRACDA Scholars in Science (ISIS) program is to attract greater numbers of postdoctoral scholars from underrepresented populations to the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and prepare them to be competitive for, and obtain, faculty positions in excellent academic institutions. This program links UCSF as the research-extensive campus with San Francisco State University (SFSU) as the minority-serving institution (MSI) in a consortium. The ISIS Program will address serious barriers to the progression of these postdoctoral scholars to academic positions in their chosen fields and will prepare them for success as academic researchers. The UCSF-SFSU consortium has four specific aims: 1) Create an extensive mentored research experience at UCSF so that IRACDA postdoctoral fellows conduct cutting-edge biomedical and behavioral research and publish in high quality journals. 2) Create an intensive mentored teaching experience at SFSU so that IRACDA postdoctoral fellows will enrich the SFSU curriculum with contemporary research experiences in biomedical and behavioral research; refine their teaching skills; serve as role models for undergraduates at SFSU; and give SFSU students the opportunity to receive research-related instruction. 3) Create career-enhancing opportunities to prepare the IRACDA Scholars to win an academic position, write successful grants, and manage a research laboratory in an inclusive and ethical manner. 4) Evaluate the ISIS program in order to plan effective future efforts. The UCSF-SFSU consortium will augment its program through an informal alliance with the UC Davis Northern California IRACDA Partnership (NCIP), which will mutually benefit both ISIS and NCIP Scholar cohorts, will conserve funds, and permit the two IRACDA programs to accomplish more than either could separately. Joint activities of this informal alliance between the ISIS and the NCIP Programs will include: recruitment; research events; teaching; career development; seminar programs for prospective recruitment of IRACDA Scholars to academic positions; and the evaluation of combined data. Recruitment of IRACDA scholars and participation in the Prospective Faculty seminar program will also involve the UC San Diego IRACDA Program, headed by Laurence L. Brunton PhD, Program Director. The ISIS program will help create a cadre of postdoctoral scholars who are highly competitive for academic positions. They will be more reflective of the make-up of the general U.S. population and better able to address public health issues through their research, and educate the future leaders of this diverse country.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的IRACDA科学学者（ISIS）计划的目标是吸引更多来自代表性不足的人口的博士后学者到加州大学弗朗西斯科分校（UCSF），并准备他们竞争，并获得优秀学术机构的教师职位。该计划将UCSF作为研究型校园与旧金山弗朗西斯科州立大学（SFSU）作为联盟中的少数民族服务机构（MSI）联系起来。ISIS计划将解决这些博士后学者在他们所选择的领域的学术职位的进展的严重障碍，并将为他们作为学术研究人员的成功做好准备。UCSF-SFSU联盟有四个具体目标：1）在UCSF创造广泛的指导研究经验，使IRACDA博士后研究员进行尖端的生物医学和行为研究，并在高质量的期刊上发表。2)在SFSU创建一个密集的指导教学经验，使IRACDA博士后研究员将丰富SFSU课程与生物医学和行为研究的当代研究经验;完善他们的教学技能;作为SFSU本科生的榜样;并给SFSU学生接受研究相关指导的机会。3)创造职业发展机会，让IRACDA学者做好准备，赢得学术职位，撰写成功的赠款，并以包容和道德的方式管理研究实验室。4)评估ISIS计划，以规划未来的有效努力。UCSF-SFSU财团将通过与加州大学戴维斯分校北方加州IRACDA合作伙伴关系（NCIP）的非正式联盟来扩大其计划，这将使ISIS和NCIP学者群体互惠互利，将节省资金，并允许两个IRACDA计划完成比任何一个单独完成的更多。ISIS和NCIP计划之间的非正式联盟的联合活动将包括：招聘;研究活动;教学;职业发展; IRACDA学者学术职位招聘研讨会计划;以及综合数据的评估。IRACDA学者的招聘和未来教师研讨会计划的参与也将涉及加州大学圣地亚哥分校IRACDA计划，由劳伦斯L。Brunton博士，项目总监。ISIS计划将有助于培养一批博士后学者，他们在学术职位上具有很强的竞争力。他们将更好地反映美国一般人口的构成，并能够通过他们的研究更好地解决公共卫生问题，并教育这个多元化国家的未来领导人。
