The Society for Advancement of Chicanes and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS) is nationally recognized for effective programs that provide underrepresented minority (URM) students and young scientists with the tools they need to be competitively prepared in the biomedical sciences and related fields. Furthermore, SACNAS has worked in strong partnership with the NIGMS/MARC program by engaging individuals at all stages of the educational pipeline in active mentoring, career, leadership, and educational development. SACNAS proposes to leverage this experience of program assessment, relationships with other organizations, and the SACNAS community of URMstudents, postdoctoral researchers, 6-12grade teachers, university faculty, and research professionals to: 1) strengthen the educational pipeline of URM students in the basic biomedical sciences and 2) maintain an ongoing analysis of all activities to assure continued improvement and delivery of the best outcomes. The scientific career "pipeline" will work effectively when an integrated approach to structured interventions is in place at each stage of the educational pipeline. Thus, we propose a multi-faceted approach to increasing URM students' involvement and retention in the biomedical sciences. First, SACNAS will organize an annual conference that will provide students with opportunities to 1) engage with nationally recognized scientific role models, 2) gain professional skills essential for advancement in the sciences, 3) participate in structured mentoring opportunities, and 4) develop and strengthen personal and professional networks. Key highlights of the activities in the proposed cycle will be an enhanced mentoring program and essential leadership training. Second, SACNAS will expand upon the conference to include year-around activities that will broaden its impact, including campus-based student chapters and leadership development initiatives. Third, SACNASwill strengthen its publications that promote science careers, highlight leading URM scientists, showcase student research, and provide resources for academic and professional development. Lastly, we will conduct a rigorous formative and summative evaluation for each proposed activity. SACNAS is uniquely qualified to successfully complete the proposed activities, and through these activities, assist the U.S. in enhancing science diversity and enabling new science discoveries.

芝加哥人和美洲原住民科学促进协会（Society for Advancement of Chicanes and Native Americans in Science，SACNAS） 承认有效的方案，提供代表性不足的少数民族（URM）的学生和年轻人 为科学家提供他们需要的工具，以便在生物医学科学和相关领域做好竞争准备。 此外，SACNAS与NIGMS/MARC计划建立了强有力的合作伙伴关系， 个人在教育管道的各个阶段，在积极的指导，职业生涯，领导，和教育 发展SACNAS建议利用这种计划评估的经验， 其他组织，和SACNAS社区的URM学生，博士后研究人员，6- 12年级 教师，大学教师和研究专业人员：1）加强URM的教育管道 学生在基础生物医学科学和2）保持所有活动的持续分析，以确保 持续改进和交付最佳成果。 科学职业“管道”将有效地工作时，一个综合的方法，结构化的干预措施， 在教育管道的每个阶段都有。因此，我们提出了一个多方面的方法， 增加URM学生的参与和保留在生物医学科学。首先，SACNAS将 组织年度会议，为学生提供机会1）参与国家 公认的科学榜样，2）获得科学进步所必需的专业技能，3） 参与结构化的指导机会，以及4）发展和加强个人和专业能力 网络.拟议周期活动的主要亮点将是加强辅导方案， 必要的领导力训练。其次，SACNAS将扩大会议范围， 扩大其影响的活动，包括校园学生分会和领导力发展 举措第三，SACNAS将加强其促进科学事业的出版物， URM科学家，展示学生的研究，并为学术和专业人士提供资源 发展最后，我们将对每个建议进行严格的形成性和总结性评估。 活动SACNAS是唯一有资格成功完成拟议活动，并通过这些 活动，协助美国加强科学多样性和促进新的科学发现。
