Program Description:
This FOA will support the development of Postbaccalaureate Research Education Programs in Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases (PRIDE programs). These post-baccalaureate research programs will incorporate extensive research experiences and well-designed courses for skills development to prepare recent college graduates from diverse backgrounds to transition into and complete rigorous, research-focused biomedical doctoral degree programs (e.g., Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D.).
The long-term goal of post-baccalaureate participants admitted to the program should be pursuing a career focused on DEM-related research. The PRIDE program will provide institutions with the resources to support and provide research experiences and courses for skills development to research-oriented postbaccalaureate participants from diverse backgrounds, including those from underrepresented groups who, following the completion of the program, will apply to and complete a rigorous research-based doctoral degree program in a field directly related to DEM.
Programs will implement evidence-informed approaches to biomedical research education and mentoring to enhance diversity in the biomedical research workforce.
