MINORITY BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH SUPPORT

拟议的管理、预算和资源系统的总体目标圣约翰的项目 大学将（1）通过以下方式增加对生物医学研究的参与 本科生和研究生在圣约翰谁是成员 目前在联合国系统中代表性不足的种族和族裔群体 专业，（2）增加这些学生谁选择的数量 生物医学研究作为职业。 这些目标将通过以下方式实现： * 招收符合条件的本科生 生物科学、心理学和制药科学，以及 提供财政支持，使他们能够充分参与 正在进行的、由校外资助的、具有高度生物医学相关性的研究; * 让少数民族本科理科学生接触MBRS毕业生 在初级课程中充当助教的学生榜样; * 支持符合条件的MS和博士学生继续他们的学业 在富有成效的、有资金支持的实验室里进行研究， 毕业生通常承担的更广泛的教学职责 助学金和研究金; * 让少数民族理科学生与资深科学家接触 从少数群体谁实现了MBRS的职业目标 通过参加研讨会/讲习班方案; * 让少数民族的本科生和研究生参与到激动人心的 生物医学研究界，支持他们前往 国家科学会议，并促进他们的早期积极 通过展示和出版他们的作品， 结果; * 增加圣约翰少数民族科学专业的人数 通过将MBRS计划与MHSSRAP等正在进行的计划联系起来， STEP和C步。 * 为少数民族本科生和研究生提供工具， 需要与更大的科学界成功沟通 通过一项正在进行的研究/讲习班计划。

The overall objectives of the proposed M.B.R.S. Program at St. John's University are to (1)increase the participation in biomedical research by undergraduate and graduate students at St. John's who are members of racial and ethnic groups that are presently underrepresented in the profession, and (2) increase the numbers of these students who choose biomedical research as a career. These objectives will be achieved by: * Recruiting eligible undergraduate students from the departments of Biological Sciences, Psychology, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, and providing financial support to enable them to participate fully in ongoing, extra-murally funded research with high biomedical relevance; * Exposing minority undergraduate science students to MBRS graduate student role models as teaching assistants in entry-level courses; * Supporting eligible M.S. and Ph.D. students to continue their studies and research in productive, funded laboratories without the distraction of the more extensive teaching duties normally associated with graduate assistantships and fellowships; * Bringing minority science students into contact with senior scientists from minority groups who have achieved the career objectives of the MBRS program, through participation in a seminar/workshop program; * Engaging minority undergraduate and graduate students in the excitement of the biomedical research community by supporting their travel to national scientific meetings, and fostering their early active participation in this community by presenting and publishing their results; * Increasing the numbers of minority science majors at St. John's at all levels by linking the MBRS program to ongoing programs such as MHSSRAP, STEP and C-STEP. * Providing minority undergraduate and graduate students with the tools needed to communicate successfully with the larger scientific community through a research-in-progress/workshop program.
