项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This is a proposal for continued funding for the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students (ABRCMS), now renamed the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Scientists. The low rates of participation in the STEM by minoritized populations relative to their proportion of the U.S. population remains a significant and ongoing concern.The NIH has recognized this disparity and supports a wide range of programs geared toward addressing this issue. Trainees participate in research and other career development activities however there are few national research symposia designed specifically for such students to gather and present their work, while also learning about cutting edge science, and experiencing career and professional development, and mentoring. Although minoritized students attend scientific society sponsored national meetings, the paucity of their numbers at any one meeting can sometimes be daunting and discouraging. Many scientific societies have recognized this and have developed programs focused on welcoming such trainees, however the issue persists. Thus, in addition to attendance at such discipline specific society and national meetings, meetings focused on minoritized students and their specific needs for professional development and mentoring are critically needed. Since 2001, the ABRCMS has been such a forum. Organized and managed by the American Society for Microbiology (ASM), ABRCMS hosts increasing numbers of students from backgrounds underrepresented in STEM, enhancing their exposure to cutting edge science, and fostering their pursuance of advanced careers in STEM, focusing on the biomedical and behavioral sciences. The ASM has received funding to support ABRCMS for 4 cycles and seeks continued funding for another 5 years to continue this critical, timely and important work. ABRCMS has arguably become the largest and best recognized scientific conference for minoritized students, with >5,200 students and educators at the 2019 conference. Furthermore, ABRCMS provides a unique recruitment opportunity for many graduate programs across the country to support their efforts in diversifying their programs. Thus the importance and role of ABRCMS in increasing STEM diversity nationally cannot be overstated. Throughout its 20-year history, ABRCMS has had clear, operational goals that have evolved to meet the changing needs of minoritized students in STEM. In this funding cycle, the specific aims are to 1) Provide opportunities for developing scientists to share their research via in person and virtual presentation platforms; 2) prepare developing scientists for successful transition to graduate or professional training via exposure to the cutting edge science, professional development, and biomedical and behavioral sciences research careers; and 3) provide professional development opportunities for faculty advisers, research scientists, and program directors to enhance their roles as advisers, mentors, educators, and leaders.

项目总结/摘要这是一项继续资助少数民族学生年度生物医学研究会议的提案（ABRCMS），现在更名为少数民族科学家年度生物医学研究会议。率低相对于他们在美国人口中的比例，少数民族人口参与STEM的比例仍然是美国国立卫生研究院已经认识到这种差异，并支持广泛的项目旨在解决这个问题。受训人员参加研究和其他职业发展活动然而，很少有专门为这些学生设计的全国性研究研讨会，他们的工作，同时也了解尖端科学，并体验职业和专业发展和指导。虽然少数民族学生参加科学协会主办的国家在许多会议上，参加任何一次会议的人数很少，有时会令人生畏和沮丧。许多科学协会已经认识到这一点，并制定了重点欢迎这些受训人员的方案，但问题依然存在。因此，除了参加这种学科的具体社会和国家会议，会议侧重于少数民族学生及其专业发展的具体需求，辅导是非常必要的。自2001年以来，ABRCMS一直是这样一个论坛。组织和管理者美国微生物学会（ASM），ABRCMS主办越来越多的学生从背景在STEM中代表性不足，增强他们对前沿科学的接触，并促进他们对 STEM的高级职业，专注于生物医学和行为科学。ASM已获得资金支持ABRCMS的4个周期，并寻求在未来5年内继续提供资金，以继续这一关键的、及时的重要的工作。ABRCMS可以说是最大和最公认的科学会议，少数民族学生，在2019年会议上有超过5，200名学生和教育工作者。此外，ABRCMS 为全国各地的许多研究生课程提供了独特的招聘机会，以支持他们的努力使他们的项目多样化。因此，ABRCMS在增加全国STEM多样性方面的重要性和作用怎么说都不过分在其20年的历史中，ABRCMS有明确的业务目标，不断发展，以满足STEM中少数民族学生不断变化的需求。在本供资周期，具体目标是 1）为发展中的科学家提供机会，通过亲自和虚拟演示分享他们的研究平台; 2）培养科学家成功过渡到研究生或专业培训，接触尖端科学，专业发展，生物医学和行为科学研究职业;和3）为教师顾问，研究科学家，和项目主任，以加强他们作为顾问，导师，教育工作者和领导者的作用。
