PROJECT SUMMARY The mission of the Biomedical Research Inclusion & Diversity to Grow Excellence in Science – Undergraduate Program for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (BRIDGE UP-HBCU) is to build a translational research workforce reflecting the talent pool of our diverse population by increasing the pool of talented Black applicants for PhD and MD/PhD programs. This is especially important in the domain of translational science and research. In fact, Black Americans have increased prevalence of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, are overly represented in the end stage renal disease populations, and have poorer outcomes for most cancers. These stark health disparities demonstrate the key need for inclusion of Black biomedical scientists in all domains of translational research and clinical care, since data support that racial concordance improves patient outcomes and that diverse research teams foster innovation. The University of Utah CTSI is committed to fortifying, sustaining and amplifying the STEM pipeline that trains and launches a diverse translational research workforce. BRIDGE UP-HBCU will specifically address the leaks in the pipeline from undergraduate to doctoral training of Black and other underrepresented scientists. BRIDGE UP-HBCU will recruit students with an interest in translational research from partnership relationships with HBCUs, while expanding these relationships to additional HBCUs. These students demonstrate a strong drive for doctoral research and physician scientist research tracks and will benefit from exposure to the translational science spectrum, additional research-intensive training experiences and professional development, enhancing both their successful transition to top-tier doctoral and professional programs, as well as their long-term retention in the translational research and science tracks. In order to accomplish these goals, BRIDGE UP-HBCU will provide key proposed activities that include (1) holistic, culturally competent career-long mentor networks (2) experiences to undertake hypothesis-driven research; (3) scientific and professional skill development workshops and activities that hone strong oral and written communication skills, enhances their self-confidence and authentic scientific identity, and instills successful strategies for applying to graduate school. Building on institutional momentum and infrastructure at the University of Utah that is dedicated to supporting STEM equity, diversity and inclusion, BRIDGE UP-HBCU will fortify its trainees’ critical thinking and research experience, and develop a resilient mindset to persist in high-quality graduate programs and beyond. With these additional skills, BRIDGE UP-HBCU graduates will be prepared for leadership and mentorship roles in translational research career tracks.

项目总结 生物医学研究包容性与多样性的使命--在理科本科生中成长卓越 针对历史黑人学院和大学的计划(Bridge Up-HBCU)是为了建立一个翻译的 通过增加黑人人才库来反映我们多样化人口的人才库的研究人员队伍 博士和医学博士/博士项目申请者。这在翻译科学领域尤为重要 和研究。事实上，美国黑人增加了糖尿病和心血管疾病的患病率， 在终末期肾病人群中比例过高，大多数癌症的预后较差。 这些明显的健康差距表明，将黑人生物医学科学家纳入所有 翻译研究和临床护理领域，因为数据支持种族一致性提高 患者的结果，以及多样化的研究团队促进创新。犹他大学CTSI致力于 加强、维持和扩大STEM渠道，培训和推出多样化的翻译 研究人员。搭建桥梁-HBCU将专门解决本科生管道中的泄漏问题 对布莱克和其他代表性不足的科学家进行博士培训。搭建桥梁-HBCU将招收学生 从与HBCU的合作关系中对翻译研究感兴趣，同时扩大这些 与其他HBCU的关系。这些学生表现出强烈的博士研究和 内科科学家的研究跟踪并将受益于对翻译科学光谱的接触， 额外的研究密集型培训经验和专业发展，增强了他们的 成功过渡到一流的博士和专业课程，并长期保留在 翻译研究和科学跟踪。为了实现这些目标，桥接-HBCU将提供 拟开展的主要活动包括：(1)全面的、有文化能力的职业生涯长期导师网络(2) 从事假设驱动研究的经验；(3)科学和专业技能发展 工作坊和活动磨练了他们强大的口头和书面沟通能力，增强了他们的自信 和真实的科学身份，并为申请研究生院灌输成功的战略。在基础上建设 犹他大学致力于支持STEM的机构势头和基础设施 公平、多样性和包容性，架起桥梁-HBCU将加强学员的批判性思维和研究 经验，并培养坚韧不拔的心态，坚持高质量的研究生课程和更高的水平。使用 这些额外的技能，桥梁-HBCU毕业生将为领导和指导角色做好准备 翻译研究职业轨迹。
