Diversity can enhance the agenda and quality of biomedical research, but a dearth of underrepresented minorities and women serve as biomedical researchers. The study purpose was to examine the impact of the a summer undergraduate research program on self-efficacy in research, scientific communication, and leadership as well as scientific identity, valuing objectives of the scientific community, and intent to pursue a biomedical research career.
Underrepresented minority and female undergraduate students participated in a mentored research experience in a rural, low-income state.
Students' self-efficacy in research, scientific communication, and leadership as well as scientific identity, valuing objectives of the scientific community, and intent to pursue a biomedical research career increased post-program compared to pre-program.
This study supports implementation of a biomedical summer undergraduate research program for URM and women in a poor, rural, settings.
多样性可以增强生物医学研究的议程和质量，但代表性不足的少数族裔和女性在生物医学研究人员中所占比例不足。本研究旨在探讨一个暑期本科生研究计划对研究自我效能、科学交流和领导力以及科学认同、重视科学界目标和从事生物医学研究职业的意愿的影响。
代表性不足的少数族裔和女性本科生在一个农村低收入州接受了指导下的研究经验。
与项目前相比，学生在研究、科学交流和领导力以及科学认同、重视科学界目标和从事生物医学研究职业的意愿方面的自我效能感有所提高。
这项研究支持在贫困农村环境中为 URM 和女性实施生物医学暑期本科生研究计划。
