PROJECT DESCRIPTION/ABSTRACT The overall objective of this renewal proposal is to facilitate the matriculation, training, and graduation of underrepresented (UR) doctoral scholars at MUSC. The intended outcome is to increase the number of UR students who complete the PhD degree in the biomedical sciences, leading to an increase in the numbers of UR faculty teaching and conducting biomedical research in U.S. colleges and universities. Students at MUSC take part in a broad array of research foci including cardiovascular biology, regenerative medicine, cancer, neuroscience, drug discovery, structural biology, and biostatistics and epidemiology. Unique to this training program on our campus is the extensive support of UR students in the first years of graduate school. The IMSD program integrates well into the overall scheme for increasing diversity in the biomedical workforce at MUSC, which includes a robust summer undergraduate research program and a post-baccalaureate research training program (NIH PREP). In this continuation of the MUSC IMSD, we anticipate supporting 6 doctoral scholars through their first and second years of graduate training, using interconnecting strategies to ensure their success. Initiatives to accomplish our goals include: 1) recruitment strategies targeted to colleges, universities and national meetings having a large constituency of UR undergraduate students. New innovations to accomplish this goal include hosting an applicant preview weekend and networking with PREP program colleagues. 2) peer mentoring and faculty coaching programs to give students a network of support on campus 3) monthly meetings to discuss science 4) career development workshops and guidance on writing and submitting grant proposals led by a group of faculty dedicated to their success and 5) facilitation of career networking of IMSD scholars through supporting them to: give talks at their undergraduate institutions, attend national meetings, attend a yearly symposium of PREP and IMSD-containing institutions, and an annual retreat with an invited speaker. Internal and external advisory committees will provide oversight for the program. Committee members have regular interactions with IMSD scholars allowing them to serve as career mentors as well. The program will be evaluated using a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches.

项目说明/摘要 这项更新建议的总体目标是促进入学、培训和毕业 在MUSC的代表不足(UR)的博士学者。预期的结果是增加UR的数量 完成生物医学博士学位的学生，导致 我们的教员在美国的学院和大学任教并进行生物医学研究。南加州大学的学生 参与广泛的研究重点，包括心血管生物学、再生医学、癌症、 神经科学、药物发现、结构生物学、生物统计学和流行病学。本培训的独特之处 我们校园的项目是UR学生在研究生院第一年的广泛支持。这个 IMSD计划很好地融入了增加生物医学劳动力多样性的整体计划中，网址为 MUSC，其中包括一个强有力的夏季本科生研究计划和一个学士学位后的研究 培训计划(NIH Prep)。 在MUSC IMSD的这次延续中，我们预计将支持6名博士学者通过他们的第一个 以及第二年的研究生培训，使用相互关联的战略来确保他们的成功。倡议以 完成我们的目标包括：1)针对大专院校和国家 拥有一大批UR本科生的会议。为实现这一目标而进行的新创新 包括主持申请者预览周末，以及与预科项目同事建立联系。2)同级 指导和教职员工辅导计划，每月在校园内为学生提供支持网络 讨论科学、职业发展研讨会以及撰写和提交补助金的指导意见的会议 由一群致力于他们的成功的教员领导的建议和5)促进IMSD的职业网络 学者们通过支持他们：在他们的本科院校演讲，参加全国会议， 参加预科和管理学院的年度研讨会，以及应邀参加的年度静修活动 扬声器。内部和外部咨询委员会将对该计划进行监督。委员会 会员定期与国际管理发展学院的学者互动，使他们也能担任职业导师。这个 该计划将采用定性和定量相结合的方法进行评估。
