MBRS/SCORE AT YORK COLLEGE

约克学院的愿景和使命宣言将其描述为一所致力于通过教学、学习、研究和奖学金实现学术卓越的机构。在其5年计划中列出的一个具体目标是创造一个重视和鼓励研究、奖学金和创造性活动的学术环境。学院设想MBRS/SCORE计划作为帮助它实现这些目标的一种手段。因此，约克学院MBRS/SCORE项目的长期目标是：(1)加强机构研究和研究培训能力；(2)提高教师的研究生产力。具体的可衡量的目标是：(i)增加拥有获得校外研究项目资助的教员的学科数量，从4个增加到5个，从而扩大生物医学研究在该机构的影响。（ii）将具有竞争性研究项目的教师人数从7人增加到9人。（iii）将教师在专业学会会议上的演讲次数从每年10次增加到每年16次。（iv）将参与部门的人均同行评审发表率由每年0.8篇提高至每年1.0篇。(v)将成功提交S06或R15类资助申请的教师人数由7人增至9人。为了实现这些目标，研究所要求继续支持细胞和分子生物学、分子遗传学、器官和物理化学以及社会学领域的6个定期子项目。此外，我们要求支持昆虫学、发育生物学、心理学和社会学领域的7个试点项目。利用MBRS/SCORE提供的资源，学院可以继续加强和多样化其研究能力和研究培训能力，并继续为未被充分代表的少数民族提供更多的生物医学研究机会。

The vision and mission statement of York College describes it as an institution committed to academic excellence through teaching, learning, research and scholarship. A specific objective listed in its 5 year plan is to create an academic environment that values and encourages research, scholarship and creative activities. The college envisions the MBRS/SCORE Program as a means of assisting it to achieve these objectives. The long term goals of the MBRS/SCORE program at York College are therefore: (1) To strengthen institutional research and research training capability and (2) to enhance the research productivity of the faculty. The specific measurable objectives are: (i) to increase the number of disciplines with faculty who have extramural funding for research projects, from four to five, and thereby broaden the impact of biomedical research at the institution. (ii) to increase the number of faculty with competitive research programs from 7 to 9. (iii) to increase the number of presentations by faculty at professional society meetings from 10 per year to 16 per year. (iv) to increase the per-capita peer- reviewed publication rate in the participating departments from 0.8 per year to 1.0 per year. (v) to increase the number of faculty who successfully submit S06 or R15 type grant applications from 7 to 9. To achieve these goals and objectives the institution requests continued support for 6 regular subprojects in the areas of cell and molecular biology, molecular genetics, organ and physical chemistry, and sociology. In addition we request support for 7 pilot projects, in the areas of entomology, developmental biology, psychology and sociology. With the resources provided by MBRS/SCORE the college can continue to strengthen and diversify its research capability and research training capability and continue to provide expanded opportunities for under- represented minorities in biomedical research.
