Abstract:
Encouraging diversity in biomedical fields is especially important and begins at the undergraduate level. Culturally competent mentorship and high impact practices, like involvement in research, play important roles in fostering success among undergraduates from historically underrepresented groups. The current study followed 20 biomedical faculty as they completed two semester-long trainings, one in mentoring and one in course based undergraduate research (CUREs) as part of the NIH Diversity Program Consortium Dissemination and Translation Awards initiative. Comparisons of pre- and post-training survey data showed increased self-efficacy for mentoring biomedical research trainees and for mentoring diverse groups of biomedical trainees. These results suggest that focused, formal faculty training can be effective for improving mentoring, and consequently success of biomedical students.
