PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The mission of the Intermountain Doctoral Education to Advance Students (IDEAS) in Neuroscience is to build a diverse neuroscience workforce reflecting the talent pool of a diverse local and national population. The University of Utah is committed to fortifying, sustaining, and amplifying the STEM pipeline that trains and launches a diverse research workforce. This postbaccalaureate training program will specifically address the limited access to research opportunities that inhibit students from underrepresented backgrounds and small colleges from transitioning from undergraduate to doctoral training. IDEAS in Neuroscience will recruit 4 students per year from diverse backgrounds, with a specific focus on students from Intermountain West institutions that serve Hispanic/Latino and Native American communities. Creating a bridge between undergraduate and graduate training for driven, engaged students will be of significant value to both the individual student and the larger biomedical community that will benefit from their long-term retention in biomedical research-related careers. In order to accomplish our program mission, we will provide trainees with a (1) holistic, culturally- competent mentored experience centered on hypothesis-driven independent research and supported with interactive and didactic coursework ; (2) professional development and career-building activities designed to nurture self-efficacy, scientific identity, and a sense of belonging; (3) an innovative, inclusive mentoring system that provides career-long scientific, personal, and cultural support; and (4) coaching in selecting and preparing applications for PhD program, refining interview skills, and effectively managing the transition to graduate school. Throughout the training process, we employ a matrix mentoring approach that incorporates peer and near-peer support and imbed trainees into STEM communities the provide access to diverse role-models. Our approach is built on University-wide momentum and infrastructure dedicated to supporting STEM equity, diversity and inclusion. The IDEAS in Neuroscience program will fortify its trainees critical thinking and research mastery while facilitating development of the resilient mindset needed persist in graduate training and beyond.

项目总结/摘要 山间博士教育的使命，以促进学生（IDEAS）在神经科学是建立 一个多样化的神经科学工作队伍，反映了不同的地方和国家人口的人才库。的 犹他州大学致力于加强，维持和放大STEM管道， 启动了一个多样化的研究队伍。这个学士后培训计划将专门解决 有限的研究机会，抑制学生从代表性不足的背景和小 大学从本科到博士的过渡。IDEAS in Neuroscience将招收4名学生 来自不同背景的学生，特别关注来自Intermountain West机构的学生， 服务于西班牙裔/拉丁裔和美洲原住民社区。在本科生和 研究生培训的驱动，从事学生将是显着的价值，无论是学生个人和 更大的生物医学社区，将受益于他们在生物医学研究相关的长期保留 careers.为了完成我们的计划使命，我们将为学员提供（1）整体的，文化的- 以假设驱动的独立研究为中心， 互动和教学课程;（2）专业发展和职业建设活动，旨在 培养自我效能感、科学认同感和归属感;（3）创新、包容的导师制度 提供职业生涯的科学，个人和文化支持;（4）在选择和准备方面进行指导 申请博士课程，完善面试技巧，并有效地管理过渡到研究生院。 在整个培训过程中，我们采用矩阵指导方法，将同行和近同行结合起来 支持并将受训者融入STEM社区，提供获得不同角色模型的机会。我们的做法是 建立在大学范围内的势头和基础设施，致力于支持STEM公平，多样性和 包容。IDEAS在神经科学计划将加强其学员的批判性思维和研究掌握， 促进在研究生培训及其他方面培养所需的复原力思维。
