Summary The long-term goal of our ADAR Program is the increased diversity of MSTEM students that pursue graduate degrees and research careers in aging-related areas. For this, we propose to enhance the UC Davis ADAR Scholars Program, a comprehensive three-year program with two major components. The first is the one-year ADAR Program, which will support eight diverse sophomore students selected from the freshmen participating in our pre-ADAR program [the Biology Undergraduate Scholars Program]. This component is designed to enhance retention, foster academic excellence, and kindle interest and engagement in aging research; it involves course work, advising, and research experience. The second component, the ADAR-Honors Program (ADAR-HR), is a research-intensive two-year program designed to encourage and support eight diverse juniors and seniors to matriculate into aging-related graduate programs. ADAR-HR provides a two-year research-intensive experience, including one summer at another institution. It will promote student retention and academic excellence through activities that facilitate social and academic integration and scientific identity formation within a supportive peer group; it will engage students in research as well as in discussions of aging research topics, integrity in research, and experimental design. It will also provide them with career information, experience in proposal writing and oral and written scientific presentations, and guidance in the graduate school application process. To achieve these goals, ADAR-HR will have four main components: advising, research experience, professional development, and community activities that enhance science identity formation and provide important sources of social support. ADAR-HR has the following measurable objectives: (1) Four diverse juniors per year will be recruited into ADAR-HR; (2) Ninety percent of ADAR-HR students will graduate in an MSTEM field with a GPA ≥ 3.25; (3) ADAR-HR students will have increased expertise as student researchers with respect to understanding experimental design and data interpretation in aging-research areas; (4) ADAR-HR students will develop professional communication skills by presenting their research locally and nationally; (5) ADAR-HR students will develop awareness of graduate program application processes; (6) ADAR-HR students will develop scientific identity through storytelling and outreach activities; (7) The majority (>50%) of ADAR-HR students will matriculate into graduate programs involving aging- related research within two years of receiving their Bachelor's degree.

总结 我们的阿达尔计划的长期目标是增加MSTEM学生的多样性， 研究生学位和老龄化相关领域的研究生涯。为此，我们建议加强市政局 戴维斯阿达尔学者计划，一个全面的三年计划，有两个主要组成部分。的 首先是为期一年的阿达尔计划，该计划将支持八名从 新生参加我们的预ADAR计划[生物本科学者计划]。这 组成部分旨在提高保留，促进学术卓越，点燃兴趣， 从事老龄化研究;它涉及课程工作，咨询和研究经验。第二 ADAR荣誉计划（ADAR-HR）是一项为期两年的研究密集型计划，旨在 鼓励和支持八个不同的大三和大四学生进入老龄化相关的研究生 程序. ADAR-HR提供为期两年的研究密集型经验，包括一个夏天在另一个 机构。它将通过促进社会活动， 和学术整合和科学身份的形成在一个支持性的同龄人群体;它将从事 学生在研究以及在老龄化研究课题的讨论，研究的完整性， 实验设计它还将为他们提供职业信息，撰写提案的经验， 口头和书面的科学报告，并在研究生院申请过程中的指导。到 为了实现这些目标，ADAR-HR将有四个主要组成部分：咨询，研究经验， 专业发展和社群活动，以加强科学身份的形成，并提供 社会支持的重要来源。ADAR-HR有以下可衡量的目标：（1）四个不同的 每年招收大三学生进入ADAR-HR;（2）90%的ADAR-HR学生将在 MSTEM领域的GPA ≥ 3.25;（3）ADAR-HR学生将增加专业知识作为学生 研究人员在理解老龄化研究中的实验设计和数据解释方面 （4）ADAR-HR学生将通过展示他们的研究来发展专业的沟通技巧 地方和国家;（5）ADAR-HR学生将培养研究生课程应用的意识 （6）ADAR-HR学生将通过讲故事和外联活动发展科学身份; (7)大多数（>50%）ADAR-HR学生将进入涉及老龄化的研究生课程- 在获得学士学位的两年内进行相关研究。
