ADV MINORITIES' GLOBAL RES TRAINING IN NEW MILLENIUM

描述(改编自应用程序)：这是竞争对手的续集 申请继续一项为期六年的MIRT计划。该计划旨在 为五名以黑人为主的选定学生和教职员工提供支持 本科院校，温斯顿-塞勒姆州立大学，班尼特学院， 汉普顿大学、梅加·埃弗斯学院和Tougaloo学院 在两个指定的外国研究实验室进行基础生物医学研究。 选定的外国研究实验室是赫尔辛基大学和 新加坡国立大学。决定继续使用这两个 大学是基于其长期的承诺和成功的记录 在培训90多名MIRT实习生和教员发展科学家 1994-1999年间。此外，两所院校的导师团 还从事细胞和分子生物学的前沿研究项目， 以及疾病诊断和预防。这种做法是与公众一致的 实现疾病预防目标的卫生服务优先领域 “健康人物2000”。参与的学生和教职员工将被定位为 在多元文化环境中有效运作。工信部的学员是 希望与大家分享他们的研究和文化经验 非参与者。因此，其他人将被告知并激励他们工作 朝着符合选拔标准的方向发展。该方案的计划包括 四个阶段。首先，预选阶段是学生做准备的阶段 在学业上竞争并发展所需的精神运动技能 在国内获得的研究经验。第二个阶段是研究和 为成功的学员提供国外文化体验。第三，工信部学员分享 并通过在全国范围内的演讲来利用在国外获得的经验 在家中举行科学会议和继续开展研究活动 在可行的情况下，建立机构。对教职员工也有同样的期望。 第四，评估将持续进行，并将包括持续的研究 学生和教职员工的活动以及摘要/出版物的生成。 对于海外研究阶段，需要继续提供支持 MIRT计划。

DESCRIPTION (Adapted From Application): This is a competing continuation application to continue a six-year old MIRT Program. The program is designed to provide support for selected students and faculty at five predominately black undergraduate institutions, Winston-Salem State University, Bennett College, Hampton University, Medgar Evers College and Tougaloo College, to participate in basic biomedical research at two designated foreign research laboratories. The foreign research laboratories selected are the University of Helsinki and the National University of Singapore. The decision to continue with these two universities is based on their long-term commitment and success track records in training more than 90 MIRT trainees and faculty developmental scientists between 1994 - 1999. In addition, the mentor groups of the two institutions also engage in cutting edge research projects in cell and molecular biology, and disease diagnosis and prevention. The approach is consistent to the Public Health Service priority areas of achieving disease prevention objectives of "Healthy People 2000". Participating students and faculty will be positioned to function effectively in a multi-cultural environment. The MIRT trainees are expected to share their research and cultural experiences with non-participants. The others will thus be informed and motivated to work towards meeting the selection criteria. The plan of the program consists of four phases. First, the pre-selection phase is the period the students prepare themselves to compete academically and develop the required psychomotor skills acquired in domestic research experience. The second phase is the research and cultural abroad experience for successful trainees. Third, MIRT trainees share and utilize the experience gained abroad through presentations at national scientific meetings and continuation of research activities at the home institution when feasible. The same is expected from the faculty participants. Fourth, assessment will be on-going and will include continued research activities by the students and faculty and generation of abstract/publications. It is for the research abroad phase that continued support is requested from the MIRT Program.
