MEDICAL STUDENT SUMMER RESEARCH PROGRAM IN HEART, LUNG AND BLOOD DISEASES (RPHLB)

摘要 这个T35提案的总体目标是提供有意义的十周夏季研究经验， 12名一年级医学生在以卓越的调查和卓越的 指导。我们的长期目标是为未来的医生-科学家职业生涯奠定基础。要执行此操作， 我们计划将该项目的重点放在与心脏、肺和血液疾病相关的研究上。这一战略需要 我们的校园和附属机构在这些领域的资助和优秀研究的悠久历史的优势 医院的我们将利用我们的5 NHLBI资助的T32教师的研究实习。这些T32集中在 以下领域：1）肺生物学2）再生医学3）心血管流行病学4）血液 疾病，和5）心血管生物学。这一战略确保了T35教师致力于导师制 并从事上级研究，为学生提供丰富的主题和经验组合， 选择.要进入这个T35计划，感兴趣的学生将提交一份简短的研究计划， 与教师导师合作，由教师/学生委员会审查。一旦被录取，学生将 预计将参加他们的家庭T32计划的学术活动，包括研讨会，演讲， 实验室会议等。这将由每周研讨会补充，以讨论RCR，批判性思维， 演讲技巧。在接下来的冬天，学生们将在校园范围内展示他们的研究项目。 研讨会。学生将被鼓励与他们的导师一起工作，准备一个摘要， 提交给国家研究会议。纵向学术经验，通过继续与他们的工作， 导师为医学院的其余三年是一个选项T35参与者，并将履行BUSM 研究轨道要求。学生达到这一点将获得毕业时的特殊指定。为了 评估我们的T35计划的效果，学生将获得ORCID，以便未来的学术活动可以 监测。此外，还内置了定义的指标，以指导方案改进和评估 整体影响。总之，我们坚信，这个新的T35计划将提供有意义的研究， 这些经验将推动医生科学家的职业生涯。

ABSTRACT The overall objective of this T35 proposal is to provide meaningful ten week summer research experiences for twelve first year medical students in settings characterized by excellence in investigation and excellence in mentoring. Our long-term goal is to establish a foundation for future physician- scientist careers. To do this, we plan to focus this program on research relating to heart, lung, and blood disorders. This strategy takes advantage of the long history of funded and excellent research in these areas on our campus and affiliated hospitals. We will utilize our 5 NHLBI funded T32 faculty for research placements. These T32s are focused in the following areas: 1) lung biology 2) regenerative medicine 3) cardiovascular epidemiology 4) blood diseases, and 5) cardiovascular biology. This strategy ensures that T35 faculty are committed to mentorship and engaged in superior research, and provides a rich portfolio of topics and experiences for students to choose from. To enter this T35 program, interested students will submit a short research proposal in collaboration with a faculty mentor for review by a faculty/student committee. Once accepted, students will be expected to participate in the scholarly activities of their home T32 program, including seminars, presentations, lab meetings etc. This will be supplemented by weekly seminars to discuss RCR, critical thinking, and presentation skills. During the following winter, students will present their research projects at a campus-wide research symposium. Students will be encouraged to work with their mentors to prepare an abstract for submission to a national research meeting. Longitudinal scholarly experiences via continued work with their mentors for the remaining three years of medical school is an option for T35 participants and will fulfill a BUSM research track requirement. Students achieving this will earn a special designation upon graduation. In order to assess the effect of our T35 program, students will be given an ORCID so that future scholarly activities can be monitored. In addition, there are built in defined metrics to guide programmatic improvement and assess overall impact. In sum, we strongly believe that this new T35 program will provide meaningful research experiences that will propel careers as physician-scientists.
