DESCRIPTION: The overall goal of the Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) RISE Program has been to actively involve students in biomedical research by providing research training, mentoring and exposure to high quality research by MSM faculty. Research training and other activities are provided to students at all collegiate levels. Under the present RISE proposal, we will continue to support student development through biomedical research training, but will focus our attention on undergraduate and pre-doctoral graduate students. The approaches taken over the four-year period of the previous grant allowed the RISE Program to achieve the expected outcomes, with few exceptions. We are indeed excited by the increase in the percentage of graduating students enrolling in a pre-doctoral graduate or graduate preparatory program. We found that 100% of students in the Minority Undergraduate Scholars in Training (MUST) component of the MSM RISE Program went into a PhD program during the last budget period. The RISE Program also had a noteworthy increase in student authorships on peer-reviewed manuscripts; our students contributed to 15 published manuscripts and 88 presentations at 20 different conferences and scientific meetings. The measurable goals and objectives of the RISE Program are outlined in the proposal. They are: Goal #1: Enhance undergraduate science student experiences in biomedical research through specific programs in order to increase undergraduate enrollment in biomedical pre-doctoral graduate programs; Goal #2: improve the success rate of pre-doctoral graduate students enrolled in the biomedical sciences program at MSM by providing research training and other enrichment activities; Goal #3: Maximize technologies to enhance program evaluation and track both undergraduate and graduate students through their research careers. The student development activities represent a multi-pronged approach to enhance the students' research knowledge and capabilities, focus the students' drive and motivation toward a career in biomedical research and, increase students' technical writing and communication skills. To accomplish these outcomes, the RISE Program will include several hands-on focused workshops that offer RISE students, MSM faculty and other students the opportunity to gain experience with state-of-the-art technology. The State-of-the-Sciences seminar series will also provide RISE students and researchers an exposure to top scientists who will present a review of the latest research in tightly focused areas. Additionally, the RISE Program will be actively involved in enhancing the academic experience of our graduate students and provide a gateway for exposure to the rapidly developing fields of bioinformatics, functional genomics, proteomics, cell and tissue engineering, and molecular histology. Through the proposed enhancement activities, involvement of students in biomedical research, and the resources and support provided, we believe the MSM RISE Program will accomplish its overall goal of increasing the number of underrepresented minorities engaged in biomedical and behavior research.

描述：莫尔豪斯医学院(MSM)Rise计划的总体目标是通过提供研究培训、指导和接触MSM教职员工的高质量研究，积极让学生参与生物医学研究。为各级学院的学生提供研究、培训和其他活动。根据目前的RISE建议，我们将继续通过生物医学研究培训来支持学生的发展，但我们将把重点放在本科生和博士后研究生身上。在上一次赠款的四年期间采取的办法使RISE方案实现了预期的结果，几乎没有例外。我们确实对进入博士前研究生或研究生预科项目的毕业生比例的增加感到兴奋。我们发现，在MSM Rise计划的少数民族本科生培训(MASH)部分，100%的学生在上一个预算期间进入了博士课程。RISE计划还显著增加了学生对同行评议手稿的署名；我们的学生在20个不同的会议和科学会议上发表了15篇已发表的手稿和88篇演讲。 建议书中概述了RISE计划的可衡量目标和目的。它们是：目标1：通过特定的计划加强本科生在生物医学研究方面的经验，以增加本科生参加生物医学博士前研究生项目的人数；目标2：通过提供研究培训和其他丰富活动，提高参加MSM生物医学项目的博士生研究生项目的成功率；目标3：最大限度地利用技术来加强项目评估，并跟踪本科生和研究生的研究生涯。学生发展活动是一种多管齐下的方法，旨在提高学生的研究知识和能力，集中学生对生物医学研究事业的动力和动机，并提高学生的技术写作和沟通能力。为了实现这些成果，RISE计划将包括几个以实践为重点的研讨会，为RISE学生、MSM教师和其他学生提供获得最先进技术经验的机会。国家科学研讨会系列还将为RISE的学生和研究人员提供接触顶尖科学家的机会，他们将介绍对密切关注领域的最新研究的回顾。此外，RISE计划将积极参与增强我们研究生的学术经验，并为接触快速发展的生物信息学、功能基因组学、蛋白质组学、细胞和组织工程以及分子组织学领域提供一个门户。通过拟议的强化活动、学生对生物医学研究的参与以及提供的资源和支持，我们相信MSM Rise计划将实现其总体目标，即增加从事生物医学和行为研究的少数族裔人数。
