Research Initiative for Scientific Enhancement

我们提出了一个RISE项目，该项目是从高度自动化的特点出发进行逆向工程的 在主要研究型大学取得成功的生物医学博士研究生。我们已经了解到 很大程度上是通过我们之前的努力，并从我们的成就和见解中综合了 培养有才华的本科生和硕士研究生，培养他们的素质， 成功攻读博士学位所必需的成就和习惯，博士后职位， 并进入备受瞩目的生物医学和行为研究职业。加州洛杉矶是一个充满活力的 在少数民族学生教育中发挥重要作用的机构。值得注意的是 取得的成就包括： ·在其最新排名(2015)中，美国国家科学基金会将加州列为第一名 西班牙裔理科博士文凭发源地，拉丁裔排名第一 理科博士，在美国大陆所有的理学士和理科硕士院校中。崛起有 是这一区别的主要贡献者。 ·为博士学习做准备的研究培训计划，包括RISE，有 2015年9月被奥巴马白宫指定为拉美裔美国人的亮点 STEM教育。 拟议的RISE更新将每年培训30名MS和20名本科生学者。 这一提议的创新包括：认识到从硕士到博士的途径是一个未得到充分利用的工具 用于扩大博士学者的人才库；将问题表述为核心研究技能；创造 一个伞形组织，将学生发展计划集中起来，共同任务是 促进好想法的交叉授粉，并将写作作为一种批判性思维练习。 我们期待着继续在培训美国博士生科学家方面发挥作用，为 生物医学研究进展。

We propose a RISE project that is reverse-engineered from the characteristics of highly successful biomedical science PhD students at major research universities. We have learned much through our prior efforts, and have synthesized from our accomplishments and insights a training program for talented undergraduate and MS students that will develop their qualities, achievements, and habits necessary for success in PhD programs, postdoctoral appointments, and into high profile biomedical and behavioral research careers. Cal State LA is a vibrant institution that plays an important role in the education of minority students. Noteworthy achievements include: · In its most recent ranking (2015), the NSF lists Cal State LA as the number one baccalaureate institution of origin of Hispanic science PhDs, and number one in Latina science PhDs, among all BS and MS institutions in the continental United States. RISE has been a major contributor to this distinction. · It's research training programs in preparation for PhD study, including RISE, were designated by the Obama White House in September 2015 as a Bright Spot in Hispanic STEM Education. The proposed RISE renewal will train 30 MS and 20 undergraduate scholars annually. Innovations of this proposal include: recognizing the MS-to-PhD pathway is an underutilized tool for expanding the pool of PhD scholars; formulating questions as a core research skill; creating an umbrella organization to centralize student development programs with common missions to facilitate cross-pollination of good ideas, and the use of writing as a critical thinking exercise. We look forward to a continued role in training American PhD scientists that contribute to the advancement of biomedical research.
