The innovative University of Minnesota Cancer Research And Teaching Excellence: M-CREATE program leverages ten years of high school and undergraduate health equity cancer research-focused mentorship and education activities, to implement a theoretically guided, evidence driven program designed to grow the numbers of cancer-focused scientists from groups underrepresented in science, and promote their academic developmental progress towards future careers in cancer research. M-CREATE will combine the experiences of our unique team including Masonic Cancer Center and Program in Health Disparities Research leadership, with best practices from education, mentorship, service learning, and parent education within a theoretical and equity-oriented frame to engage, educate, and support students to achieve the knowledge, skills, science identity, and self-efficacy required to support academic persistence and long-term success within the biomedical and behavioral sciences. The long-term goal of this proposal is to address the pressing needs of our increasingly diverse patient population in Minnesota and the United States (U.S.) by enhancing the diversity of the cancer-focused research workforce. We will support the academic persistence of first, 240 early high school students attending two urban school districts comprised of approximately seventy percent Native American students and students of color, through a multicomponent, staged program combining hands on research mentorship, academic and professional development, science-oriented identity development, parent support, and community-engaged service learning. Four cohorts of 60 students will participate in an initial engagement year comprised of supportive and exciting hands-on experiences. Ten students per cohort will continue in an intensive experience including two nine-week summer mentored research experiences and a community-engaged service learning experience. Next, 60 early-stage undergraduate students underrepresented in science will participate in a nine-week summer program combining academic and professional development and hands on research mentorship. Finally, we will deepen the science-focused skills of high school teachers from collaborating districts serving students underrepresented in science through a hands-on research lab experience paired with evidence-based support to develop curricula responsive to the needs of diverse learners. Diversifying the cancer research workforce is critical to addressing the pressing needs of increasingly diverse patient populations in Minnesota and across the U.S. M-CREATE aligns strongly with NCI strategic priorities to strengthen the cancer research workforce and mitigate cancer disparities.

创新的明尼苏达大学癌症研究和教学卓越：M-CREATE计划 利用十年的高中和本科健康公平癌症研究为重点的导师， 教育活动，实施一个理论指导，证据驱动的计划，旨在增长 来自科学界代表性不足的群体的癌症科学家的数量，并促进他们的学术 在癌症研究中的未来职业发展进步。M-CREATE将联合收割机的经验 我们独特的团队，包括共济会癌症中心和健康差异研究领导计划， 从教育，指导，服务学习和家长教育的理论和 以公平为导向的框架，以参与，教育和支持学生实现知识，技能，科学 身份和自我效能需要支持学术坚持和长期的成功内， 生物医学和行为科学。这项建议的长期目标是解决下列方面的迫切需要： 我们在明尼苏达州和美国（美国）日益多样化的患者人群通过增强 以癌症为重点的研究队伍的多样性。我们会支持第一个240早期的学术坚持 就读于两个城市学区的高中生约有70%是本地人， 美国学生和有色人种学生，通过多元、分阶段的方案结合起来， 研究导师制，学术与专业发展，科学导向认同发展，家长 支持和社区参与的服务学习。四组60名学生将参加一个初步的 参与年由支持性和令人兴奋的实践经验组成。每班十名学生将 继续在密集的经验，包括两个为期九周的夏季指导研究经验和一个 社区参与服务学习经验。接下来，60名早期本科生 在科学领域代表性不足的学生将参加一个为期九周的暑期项目， 专业发展和实践研究指导。最后，我们将深化以科学为重点的 来自合作地区的高中教师的技能， 一个动手的研究实验室的经验与基于证据的支持配对，以开发课程响应 不同学习者的需求。癌症研究人员的多样化对于解决紧迫的 明尼苏达州和美国各地日益多样化的患者群体的需求。 与NCI战略重点，以加强癌症研究的劳动力和减轻癌症的差距。
