This Web site resulted from the NIGMS Workshop on Achieving Scientific Excellence through Diversity, held in May 2001. It is intended to serve as a resource for NIGMS-funded training grant program directors in their efforts to improve diversity in their training programs. This site includes a report of the workshop, which includes many ideas for improving diversity recruitment and retention, a list of resources to aid in this effort, and examples of NIGMS-funded training programs that have had increasing success in their diversity recruitment and retention efforts. Comments and suggestions can be sent to NIGMS staff who administer training grant programs.
