> **NIH NIH R25** · SAVANNAH STATE UNIVERSITY · 2020 · $301,860

## Abstract

“Achieving Diversity through Integrative Scientific Research Experience” (ADISRE) is a new
student-centered NIBIB-ESTEEMED research education program. ADISRE is about “Creating A
Desire” for learning and the ethical and useful application of scientific thought and method. The over-
arching goal is to produce STEM graduates with an internal drive to serve their community by pursuing
a career in biomedical sciences. This program will expand, leverage and improve upon a previously
successful research education model (NIBIB-EDEPS) conducted at Savannah State University by A)
expanding the number of high-achieving student participants from 13 to 28; B) Increasing the
emphasis on doctoral careers in the biomedical sciences through the nature of training activities,
including a holistic 6-week summer bridge program; C) Enhance the ability of ADISRE scholars to gain
entrance into competitive doctoral programs through rigorous and interactive training, negating the
need for them to garner post baccalaureate experience; and D) Create a broad, long-term institutional
impact of integrative teaching and learning through the development of a new team taught Core Area-
D science laboratory course for freshmen and sophomores. The ADISRE program will nurture
creativity, promote teamwork, ethical conduct, scientific rigor, proper documentation, innovation and
product development.
