生物医学研究中的奖励率不平等
Award rate inequities in biomedical research
摘要:
对现有机构研究提案数据库的分析可以为科学资助均等提供新的见解。本研究的目的是分析种族/民族和跨医学院教师的校外研究提案和奖励率之间的关系,并确定是否有证据表明,研究人员改变了他们的提交策略,因为不同的不公平提交类别。作者分析了密歇根大学医学院2010-2022年期间提出的14,263项生物医学研究提案,测量了每个种族/族裔群体在4个可能的提交类别(R 01和等效程序,其他联邦,行业和非营利组织)中的提案提交和奖励率。来自不同种族/族裔群体的生物医学研究人员在密歇根大学医学院遵循明显不同的提案提交策略。种族/民族与提案授予率之间也有明显的关系。黑人/非洲裔美国人和亚洲研究人员在所有提交类别中相对于白人研究人员处于不利地位。这项研究可以很容易地被其他学术研究机构复制,揭示了积极干预的机会。
英文摘要:
The analysis of existing institutional research proposal databases can provide novel insights into science funding parity. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between race/ethnicity and extramural research proposal and award rates across a medical school faculty and to determine whether there was evidence that researchers changed their submission strategies because of differential inequities across submission categories. The authors performed an analysis of 14,263 biomedical research proposals with proposed start dates between 2010-2022 from the University of Michigan Medical School, measuring the proposal submission and award rates for each racial/ethnic group across 4 possible submission categories (R01 & Equivalent programs, other federal, industry, and non-profit). Biomedical researchers from different racial/ethnic groups follow markedly different proposal submission strategies within the University of Michigan Medical School. There is also a clear relationship between race/ethnicity and rates of proposal award. Black/African American and Asian researchers appear disadvantaged across all submission categories relative to White researchers. This study can be easily replicated by other academic research institutions, revealing opportunities for positive intervention.
