University of New Mexico PREP Program

项目摘要。新墨西哥州大学学士后研究和 教育计划（UNM PREP）是一个生物医学研究培训计划， 少数民族和计划进入的社会经济代表性不足的个人 博士项目通过一系列明确的目标，我们将： 代表性不足的学者到我们的计划;发展和实现个性化的培训 计划提供实验室研究经验和学术培训，以提高 学者的技能组合;提供额外的培训模块，以发展专业人员 学者的技能;提供支持和培训，成功应用 学者博士课程;调查影响研究生院的参数 保留;并利用这些数据，以改善在新墨西哥大学的研究生培训。我们预计 这一培训的结果将是增加任职人数不足的人数， 个人在科学，并增加研究重点和认识， 减少健康差距。项目叙述。该项目与人类健康的相关性是通过直接 在生物医学科学领域的个人培训，以及他们随后的强大 在PhD项目中的表现。因为我们的学者来自于 具体的健康差距，我们将培训那些积极性高， 熟练进行未来的研究，旨在减轻和治愈这些健康 差距。

Project Summary. The University of New Mexico Postbaccalaureate Research and Education Program (UNM PREP) is a biomedical research training program focused upon Minorities and socio-economically under-represented individuals who plan to enter a PhD program. Through a series of defined objectives, we shall: recruit high-quality under-represented Scholars to our program; develop and realize individualized training plans to provide laboratory research experience and academic training to improve the skill set of the Scholar; provide additional training modules to develop the professional skills of the Scholar; provide support and training in the successful application of the Scholars to PhD programs; investigate the parameters impacting graduate school retention; and utilize these data to improve graduate training at UNM. We anticipate that the results of this training will be to increase the numbers of under-represented individuals in the sciences, and to increase research focus and awareness upon reducing health disparities. Project Narrative. The relevance of this project to human health is through the direct training of individuals in biomedical science fields, and their subsequent strong performance in PhD programs. Since our Scholars hail from populations associated with specific health disparities, we shall be training individuals who are highly motivated and skilled to carry out future research aimed at alleviating and curing these health disparities.
