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 representation of minorities in their training programs. This site includes a report of the workshop, which includes many ideas for improving minority 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 minority recruitment and retention efforts. Comments and suggestions can be sent to an online feedback form or to NIGMS staff who administer training grant programs.
