C. Contribution to Science

Candidates for Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research who are high

school students, undergraduates, and postbaccalaureates are not required to complete this section.

Briefly describe up to five of your most significant contributions to science. While all applicants may

describe up to five contributions, graduate students and postdoctorates are encouraged to consider

highlighting two or three they consider most significant. Descriptions may include a mention of research

products under development, such as manuscripts that have not yet been accepted for publication.

Each contribution should be no longer than one half page, including citations. These contributions do not

have to be related to this project. For each contribution:



Indicate the historical background that frames the scientific problem; the central finding(s); the
