The National Academies have released a resource on efforts to attract more minorities to careers in research. "Understanding Interventions that Encourage Minorities to Pursue Research Careers," is the pre-publication summary of a workshop sponsored by the National Academies and the National Institutes of Health in May. The workshop examined programs created at the pre-college, college, and graduate school levels to encourage minorities to pursue research careers, as well as factors that contributed to the success of these programs.
