项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): One of the current goals at the University at Buffalo (UB) is to increase the number of underrepresented faculty, researchers, undergraduate, and graduate students in the biomedical and behavioral sciences. The goal of the current application is to increase the number of underrepresented graduate students in these areas by 4 per year, amounting to a total of 20 during the funding period. This goal will be accomplished by enrolling students from underrepresented populations who have the motivation, talent and ability to succeed, but who are not fully prepared to enter a specific graduate program in the area of biomedical and behavioral sciences at UB (including the departments of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Biomedical Sciences [IGPBS]; the Departments of Biological Sciences, Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, Oral Biology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Psychology; and the Graduate Division at Roswell Park Cancer Institute). The strength of the program will be the design of an individualized curriculum complemented by a Professional Development Catalyst Series course, Research Communication Workshops, and faculty and peer tutoring and mentoring. We will enhance mentor/protigi relationships and provide the essential psychosocial and academic support system for the successful completion of the PhD degree, competition for external fellowship awards, and admission to training grants (T32). IMSD programs, by design, will provide an integrated and collaborative learning atmosphere to facilitate the crucial first fe years of the students' graduate program and their transition into competitive graduate students with skills to rise beyond expectation. UB's IMSD program will gear them to secure competitive postdoctoral research positions and to successfully participate in leadership positions beyond graduation by enhancing oral and written communication skills and scientific presentations at local and national meetings, by becoming members of and participating in the activities of scientific societies and by timely publication of scientific findings. We anticipate that the progrm will catalyze UB's transformation into one of the leading institutions to adapt to underrepresented minority teaching and learning needs by providing a rich, intellectually diverse environment aimed at seamlessly integrating the student to faculty development programs which aligns well with the UB2020 vision. This will be accomplished through a collaborative partnership with the office of the provost, multicultural affairs diversity programs, and administration officials. The success of the program will be measured by the quality of peer-reviewed publications and presentations at scientific meetings, research and fellowship awards, and successful transition of our graduate students to postdoctoral research and leadership research positions in academia and industry in biomedical and behavioral science, and an increase in the number of applications for faculty positions and graduate programs from underrepresented individuals.

描述（由申请人提供）：布法罗大学（UB）的当前目标之一是增加生物医学和行为科学中代表性不足的教师，研究人员，本科生和研究生的数量。当前申请的目的是将这些领域代表性不足的研究生数量增加4年，总计为20个。这一目标将通过招募来自代表性不足的人群的学生来实现，这些学生具有成功的动机，才能和成功的能力，但尚未充分准备在UB的生物医学和行为科学领域进入特定的研究生计划（包括生物医学跨学科研究生研究的部门，生物科学领域的生物学[IGPBS]； Pharmaceutical Sciences，心理学和Roswell Park癌症研究所的研究生部门。该计划的优势将是设计个性化课程的设计，并由专业发展催化剂系列课程，研究沟通讲习班以及教师和同伴辅导和指导补充。我们将增强导师/protigi的关系，并为成功完成博士学位，外部奖学金奖项以及接受培训补助金的竞争提供基本的社会心理和学术支持系统（T32）。 IMSD计划通过设计，将提供综合和协作的学习氛围，以促进学生研究生课程的关键第一年，并过渡到具有超出预期的技能的竞争研究生。 UB的IMSD计划将对他们进行准备，以确保有竞争力的博士后研究职位，并通过在本地和国家会议上提高口头和书面沟通技巧和科学演讲，成功地参与科学社会的活动，并通过及时发布科学发现，通过提高口头和书面沟通技巧和科学演讲，成功地参与领导职位。我们预计，通过提供一个旨在使学生与UB2020愿景良好相吻合的教师发展计划，旨在通过提供富裕，智力上多样化的环境来促进UB的转型为领先的机构之一，以适应代表性不足的少数群体的教学和学习需求。这将通过与教务长，多元文化事务多样性计划和行政官员的办公室合作来实现。该计划的成功将通过在科学会议，研究和研究金奖上的同行评审出版物和演讲的质量来衡量，并成功地过渡到我们的研究生在生物医学和行为科学领域的学术界和行业的博士后研究和领导力研究职位，并增加了教师职位的应用程序数量的人数和研究生级别的人，并从事研究生和研究生的研究。
