A. The main goal of the IMSD program is to increase the number of students from groups underrepresented (UR) in the biomedical and behavioral sciences that graduate from Ph.D. programs in these fields at institutions with research-intensive environments. The institutional IMSD program is expected also to increase the diversity of the student pool in the biomedical and behavioral science departments and to reduce the gap in the completion of Ph.D. degrees in biomedical and/or behavioral sciences by UR and non-UR students.
