MBRS/SCORE Program at Florida A&M University

描述(由申请者提供)：佛罗里达农工大学(FAMU)SCORE计划的目标是加强和扩大该机构最先进的生物医学和行为研究。该计划的主要目标将是加强研究基础设施，吸引和招聘高素质的新少数族裔研究人员，激发现有教职员工的研究热情，并提高该机构的生物医学和行为研究生产率和科学竞争力。金融资产管理联盟目前正在提交11个常规研究项目和两个试点项目。六个次级项目涉及药物化学、生物化学和物理化学的研究领域；五个次级项目涉及药理学和其他生物科学的研究领域；一个次级项目提案涉及制药科学领域，另一个次级项目提案涉及生物工程领域。最初，FAMU评分计划从主要调查人员那里收到了28个子项目提案。然而，在经过广泛的内部和外部提交前审查程序后，医疗费用报告咨询委员会只批准了最有价值的13个次级项目提交给国家卫生研究院/国家综合管理系统。SCORE计划将与FAMU的RISE计划(目前正在提交过程中)以及校园内的其他丰富计划密切合作，以最大限度地提高研究活动的成功。根据我们过去三年的经验，提出了一项有效的评估计划，以衡量Score计划规定的目标和目的。将采用形成性和终结性评估方法来审查该计划拟议研究活动的成果。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the SCORE Program at Florida A&M University (FAMU) is to strengthen and expand state-of-the-art biomedical and behavioral research at the institution. The main objective of the program will be to enhance the research infrastructure, attract and recruit highly qualified new minority investigators, stimulate research enthusiasm among existing faculty and increase biomedical and behavioral research productivity and scientific competitiveness in the institution. FAMU is currently submitting 11 regular research projects and two pilot projects. Six subprojects address the research area in medicinal chemistry, biochemistry and physical chemistry; five subprojects deal with the research area of pharmacology and other biological sciences; one subproject proposal is in the area of pharmaceutical sciences and another is in the area of bioengineering. Initially, the FAMU SCORE Program received 28 subproject proposals from principal investigators. However, after an extensive internal and external pre-submission review process, the MBRS Advisory Committee approved only the most meritorious; 13 subprojects for submission to NIH/NIGMS. The SCORE Program will work very closely with FAMU's RISE Program (currently in the process of being submitted), as well as other enrichment programs on campus to maximize the success of the research activities. An effective evaluation plan is proposed to measure the stated goals and objectives of the SCORE Program, based on our past experience of the last three years. Formative and summative evaluation methods will be incorporated to review the achievements of the proposed research activities of the program.
