Growth versus Fixed Mindset01:24

Growth versus Fixed Mindset

8
Carol Dweck introduced the term mindset to describe individuals' beliefs about their intellectual and personal capabilities. These beliefs significantly influence psychological processes such as motivation, goal-setting, and perseverance, ultimately shaping academic and life outcomes. Individuals generally possess one of two mindsets- a fixed or a growth mindset—each promoting different responses to success, failure, and challenge.Fixed vs. Growth MindsetA fixed mindset assumes that one's...

Preclinical Development: Overview01:28

Preclinical Development: Overview

5.0K
Preclinical development consists of a series of tests that ensure the safety and efficacy of a new therapeutic compound before it is tested in humans. There are four main phases to this process. First, safety pharmacology tests are conducted to ensure the drug does not produce any acutely harmful effects. These tests examine parameters such as bronchoconstriction, cardiac dysrhythmias, blood pressure changes, and ataxia. Next, preliminary toxicological testing is performed to determine the...

Crystal Growth: Principles of Crystallization

2.9K
Crystallization is a phase transformation process in which crystals are precipitated from a supersaturated solution or formed from other sources. During crystallization, atoms or molecules arrange themselves into a well-defined, rigid crystal lattice to minimize energy.
Initiating crystallization involves manipulating the concentration of the solute and the temperature of the solution. Since crystal growth occurs when the ratio of concentration and solubility of the solute in the solvent...

Proliferative Phase01:20

Proliferative Phase

873
The proliferative phase typically occurs after menstruation and lasts between 6 to 13 days in a standard 28-day cycle. This phase involves the reconstruction of the endometrium, guided by estrogen produced by the developing ovarian follicle.
Notably, the stratum basale, the basal layer of the endometrium, including the basal parts of the uterine glands, remains unaffected by menstruation. Stem cells in this layer undergo mitosis, regenerating the stratum functionalis and thickening the...

Summary

A pilot program successfully closed the gap in STEM research participation between underrepresented and well-represented students. This intervention fostered confidence and increased the number of underrepresented students pursuing PhDs.

Area of Science:

  • STEM Education
  • Chemical Sciences
  • Undergraduate Research

Background:

  • STEM fields face persistent barriers for marginalized communities, including financial and educational inequality.
  • Underrepresented (UR) students show declining interest in science research over college, unlike well-represented (WR) students.
  • UR students historically participate in lab research at lower rates than WR peers without intervention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate differences in STEM career plans and interests between UR and WR undergraduate students.
  • To assess the impact of a pilot intervention program on UR students' engagement in STEM research.
  • To determine if the intervention program equalizes research confidence and career aspirations between UR and WR students.

Main Methods:

  • Surveyed over 3000 undergraduates in chemistry courses regarding their science research interests and career plans.
  • Implemented the Biosciences Collaborative for Research Engagement (BioCoRE) program, offering mentoring and community-building activities.
  • Compared post-intervention survey data on career intentions and research confidence between UR and WR students in the BioCoRE program and non-participants.

Main Results:

  • UR students' interest in science research significantly declined over four years compared to WR students.
  • The BioCoRE program demonstrated no statistical difference in career plans (medical, graduate school, research) between UR and WR participants.
  • BioCoRE participants reported higher confidence in conducting research than non-BioCoRE students.

Conclusions:

  • The BioCoRE program effectively increased research confidence and parity in career aspirations for UR students.
  • Interventions like BioCoRE are crucial for retaining UR students' interest and participation in STEM research.
  • The program has led to a historical high in UR students transitioning to PhD programs.
