The annual Understanding Interventions that Broaden Participation in Science conference is the leading in-person opportunity for practitioners to interact, share experiences and solutions, and learn from experts outside their professional domain about innovations in many forms—theories, methods, tools—that could inform interventions with students, faculty, decision makers, and policymakers. The UI Conference provides a forum for the dissemination and distillation of translational interventions research resulting from competitive grants awarded by funding agencies such as the NSF and NlH. The overall goal of this five-year conference plan is to reach a capacity double that of the current UI model through the following specific aims: 1. Understanding Interventions will organize and implement an annual conference that will include training workshops, symposia, deeper dive sessions, poster sessions, and organized networking opportunities. Travel support will be given to enable greater graduate student, post-doctoral, and junior faculty participation in conference activities. 2. Understanding Interventions will provide outreach that takes interventions scholarship to five professional society meetings that have a history of being attentive to not only research, but also training in broadening participation. These meetings include but are not limited to the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students (ABRCMS), Society for Advancement of Chicanos/Hispanics and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS), Experimental Biology (EB), Society for Neuroscience, and American Chemical Society (ACS), the American Institute of Physics (API), or The American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB). It will aggressively advertise and market the annual conference to those disciplines not historically well represented such as chemistry, physics, computer science, and engineering. 3. Understanding Interventions will host webinars that provide skills development and aid in dissemination of research on broadening participation in science.
