Project Summary/Abstract The Bridges to the Doctorate (BTD) Training Program at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) will partner with University of California, Irvine (UCI) to produce a seamless and supportive bridge for underrepresented (UR) and underserved (US) students interested in biomedical research careers. Both campuses are HSI and AANAPISI that normalize diversity and value inclusion along with providing rigorous STEM training. Experiences at both institutions will support science identity and a sense of belonging, which will remain with BTD trainees throughout their career. The BTD program will support ten talented UR/US Master’s degree students from the CSULB Biological Sciences, Biochemistry and Chemistry graduate programs. These students will complete graduate courses and defend an M.S. thesis with a two-year time line. Faculty with strong records in publication and graduate training were selected as potential BTD research mentors. The M.S. programs will be enhanced through a weekly Career Development Community, an annual Career Panel and Enhancing Reproducibility workshop, and opportunities to present research at conferences. BTD students will read literature about ethnicity and race in STEM to gain meta-cognition of science identity, imposterism and the diversity-innovation paradox. A structured near-peer mentoring program will partner first and second year BTD students to provide guidance and support to mentees and leadership experience for mentors. Research mentor training at CSULB will focus on inclusive mentoring for a diverse student population and will include the Beach Mentoring Program as well as annual STEM-specific mentoring workshops. The M.S. students in the BTD program will visit UCI for campus tours, seminars followed by meetings with Minority Science Programs (MSP) students, the MSP Summer Research Symposium and mock interviews. UCI has reserved slots for BTD students who matriculate to UCI to participate in the Competitive Edge Ph.D. preparation summer program. Over 20 PI’s at UCI have keen interest in mentoring BTD students, and BTD faculty mentors are interested in setting up collaborations with UCI faculty. The five measurable objectives of the BTD Training Program at CSULB are 1) All BTD students will meet program requirements; 2) More than 75% of BTD students will complete their degree in two years; 3) More than 75% of BTD students will enter biomedical science Ph.D. programs within three years of starting the BTD program with 50% being accepted to UCI Ph.D. programs; 4) Of BTD students who enter Ph.D. programs, more than 80% will complete the Ph.D. degree; and 5) The average time to degree for BTD students after entry into Ph.D. study will be less than 60 months. After completion of their Ph.D. degrees, BTD students will continue in competitive postdoc positions to diversify the biomedical research enterprise.

项目概要/摘要 加州州立大学长滩分校 (CSULB) 的博士桥梁 (BTD) 培训计划将 与加州大学欧文分校 (UCI) 合作，为学生搭建一座无缝且支持性的桥梁 对生物医学研究职业感兴趣的代表性不足（UR）和服务不足（美国）的学生。两个都 HSI 和 AANAPISI 校园将多样性和价值包容性常态化，同时提供严格的 STEM 培训。两个机构的经验将支持科学认同和归属感，这 将在 BTD 学员的整个职业生涯中一直陪伴在他们身边。 BTD 计划将支持 10 名才华横溢的 UR/US CSULB生物科学、生物化学和化学专业硕士研究生 程序。这些学生将完成研究生课程并获得硕士学位。论文期限为两年。 在出版和研究生培训方面拥有良好记录的教师被选为潜在的 BTD 研究对象 导师。硕士计划将通过每周一次的职业发展社区、每年一次的职业发展社区得到加强 职业小组和增强可重复性研讨会，以及在会议上展示研究的机会。 BTD 学生将阅读 STEM 中有关民族和种族的文献，以获得科学身份的元认知， 冒名顶替和多样性创新悖论。结构化的近同伴指导计划将首先成为合作伙伴 和二年级 BTD 学生为学员提供指导和支持，并为他们提供领导经验 导师。 CSULB 的研究导师培训将重点关注对多元化学生群体的包容性指导 并将包括海滩辅导计划以及年度 STEM 特定辅导研讨会。这 多发性硬化症。 BTD 项目的学生将访问 UCI 进行校园参观、研讨会，然后与少数民族会面 科学项目 (MSP) 学生、MSP 夏季研究研讨会和模拟面试。 UCI 有 为入读 UCI 的 BTD 学生保留参加竞争优势博士课程的名额。 准备暑期课程。 UCI 的 20 多名 PI 对指导 BTD 学生非常感兴趣，并且 BTD 教师导师有兴趣与 UCI 教师建立合作关系。五个可衡量的目标 CSULB 的 BTD 培训计划为 1) 所有 BTD 学生都将满足计划要求； 2) 超过 75% 的 BTD 学生将在两年内完成学位； 3）超过75%的BTD学生将进入 生物医学科学博士开始 BTD 计划后三年内的计划，其中 50% 被接受 UCI 博士节目； 4) 进入博士学位的BTD学生计划中，超过 80% 将完成博士学位。 程度; 5) BTD 学生进入博士学位后获得学位的平均时间。学习将少于60 几个月。完成博士学位后。学位，BTD 学生将继续担任有竞争力的博士后职位 生物医学研究企业多元化。
