Development of a socio-ecological model of wellness and resilience support

项目摘要/摘要 德克萨斯大学圣安东尼奥分校健康科学中心(UT Health SA)是全国领先的 是圣安东尼奥价值420亿美元的生物科学和医疗保健产业的主要催化剂 美国最大的少数族裔(拉丁裔)占多数的城市的主要部门。该机构在所有方面都致力于 其使命是多样性、包容性、卓越和可获得性。生物医学研究生院是 五所组成的学校之一，有21个研究生课程。旗舰博士生项目是 综合生物医学科学(IBMS)计划，从6个部门战略发展 方案，通过过渡性的伞形方案，最终达到其目前的状态，真正实现单一、综合、 多学科项目。正是IBMS项目充当了代表不足(UR)学生的池 已经为目前的IMSD R25提供了两轮资金，并将继续作为新的IMSD(T32)计划的资金来源。 这项建议建立在一个非常成功的干预计划的基础上，该计划产生了特殊的指标。 这些问题包括过去十年中UR代表从17%增加到39%，以及与非UR学员持平 在平均出版物(5)和留存(96%)。UR达到学位的时间虽然比全国平均水平要短， 仍然落后于一般的IBM人群，可能是因为对科学产出的关注。由以下因素支撑 整合社会认知职业理论和社区的基于资产的行动理论框架 文化财富，我们在招聘、研究培训、教师发展和职业探索方面的战略， 将有助于扩大我们的成功，并加强我们对生物医学科学多样性的贡献 劳动力。加强与及时将进展转化为书面产出有关的重点和支助(研究金 申请、手稿、论文等)会把时间缩短到一定程度。在这个周期结束时，我们是 乐观地说，我们可以实现最初的目标，即培养出一批文化多样、科学统一的IBM (包括国际管理与发展学院)学生，所有这些学生，凭借这种多样性，增强了培训体验，以及 创新的联合课程活动，在专业技能和属性方面出类拔萃，并定位于 在生物医学领域的职业成功和领导力。

Project Summary/Abstract The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health SA) is one of the nation’s leading Health Universities and is a chief catalyst for San Antonio’s $42 billion bioscience and health care industry, the leading sector of the largest minority (Latino)-majority city in the United States. The institution is committed in all its missions to diversity, inclusive excellence and accessibility. The Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences is one of the five component schools and has 21 graduate programs. The flagship doctoral program is the Integrated Biomedical Sciences (IBMS) Program that has strategically progressed from 6 departmental programs, through a transitional umbrella program, and finally to its current state of a truly single, integrated, multidisciplinary program. It is the IBMS program serves as the pool of underrepresented (UR) students that have fed two rounds of the current IMSD R25 and will continue to be the feeder for the new IMSD (T32) program. This proposal builds upon a highly successful intervention program that has resulted in exceptional metrics. These include UR representation increasing from 17% to 39% in the last decade, and parity with non-UR trainees in average publications (5) and retention (96%). Time to degree for UR, while shorter than the national average, remains lagging behind the general IBMS population, likely due to the focus on scientific output. Undergirded by an asset-based theoretical framework of action that integrates Social Cognitive Career Theory and Community Cultural Wealth, our strategies in recruitment, research training, faculty development, and career exploration, will serve to extend our successes and strengthen our contributions to diversity in the biomedical sciences workforce. Enhanced focus and support related to timely translation of progress into written outputs (fellowship applications, manuscripts, dissertation etc.) will shorten the time to degree. By the end of this cycle, we are optimistic we can reach our original goal of graduating a culturally diverse, yet scientifically-uniform, pool of IBMS (including IMSD UR) students all of whom, by virtue of this diversity, empowering training experience, and innovative co-curricular activities, are exceptional in their professional skills and attributes and positioned for career success and leadership in the biomedical sector.
