PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT As a nation, we have made tremendous advances in cancer prevention and control. However, these advances have not accrued evenly across society. New directions in population health, genetic screening and precision medicine may hold promise to promote health equity through risk identification and disease preemption, leading to potentially transforming cancer morbidity and mortality. To be at this cutting edge of scientific discovery and translation, we require more, and better prepared, STEM-H (science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and health) professionals trained in cancer and health focused careers. The long-term goal of this program is to increase the biomedical and behavioral research workforce by providing specialized and experiential curricula that highlights team-oriented population sciences. In order to contribute to this goal, the overall objective of this initiative is to implement a cancer research education program, “Cancer Research—Scholarship and Training Experiences in Population Sciences” (C-STEPS). This program is designed to facilitate and support undergraduate students in their completion of a degree in a STEM-H field and to facilitate their selection of, and application to, graduate or professional schools, while encouraging their interests in research careers. C-STEPS, a 10-week summer cancer research experiences program, consists of 4 integrated components: 1) inquiry-based research seminars, 2) skills-based, student-tailored, mentored research experiences, 3) development of career plans, and 4) team-building activities. We will recruit cohorts of 10 undergraduates nationally for participation in C-STEPS. We will solicit applications from students intending to pursue graduate or professional education in STEM-H disciplines. Students will participate full-time from mid-May through August, guided by faculty and research mentors with expertise in cancer control and population sciences (i.e., cancer risk prediction and risk reduction, cancer screening, cancer outcomes, and survivorship). C-STEPS builds on existing resources at the University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer Center. Specific aims are to: 1) Provide foundational understanding, through inquiry-based research seminars, of current and emerging innovations in cancer prevention and control and of collaborative team science through team-building activities. 2) Provide skills-based mentored research experiences. 3) Provide specific opportunities to implement STEM-H career planning in collaboration with and through personalized coaching from faculty, and “peers” (UNM STEM Gateway undergraduates and returning C-STEPS alumni in Years 2-5) and “near-peers” (graduate students, post-doctoral fellows); including preparation of individual development plans, which foster career development. C-STEPS will increase the number of undergraduates pursuing graduate or professional schools, and ultimately research careers thereby addressing a national priority for well-trained STEM-H professionals in cancer and health focused careers.

项目概要/摘要 作为一个国家，我们在癌症预防和控制方面取得了巨大进步。然而，这些进步 整个社会的积累并不均匀。人口健康、基因筛查和精准度的新方向 医学有望通过风险识别和疾病预防来促进健康公平，从而引领 可能改变癌症发病率和死亡率。处于科学发现的最前沿 翻译，我们需要更多、更好的准备，STEM-H（科学、技术、工程、数学和 健康）接受过癌症和健康职业培训的专业人员。该计划的长期目标是 通过提供专业和体验式课程来增加生物医学和行为研究人员队伍 这强调了以团队为导向的人口科学。为了促进这一目标的实现，本次活动的总体目标 倡议是实施一项癌症研究教育计划，“癌症研究——奖学金和培训” 人口科学经验”（C-STEPS）。该计划旨在促进和支持 本科生完成 STEM-H 领域的学位，并促进他们的选择和 申请研究生或专业学校，同时鼓励他们对研究职业的兴趣。 C-步骤， 为期 10 周的夏季癌症研究体验项目，由 4 个综合组成部分组成：1) 基于探究的 研究研讨会，2) 基于技能、为学生量身定制、指导的研究经验，3) 职业发展 计划，以及 4) 团队建设活动。我们将在全国范围内招募10名本科生参加 C-步骤。我们将征求打算攻读研究生或职业教育的学生的申请 STEM-H 学科。学生将从五月中旬到八月全日制参加，由教师和 具有癌症控制和人口科学专业知识的研究导师（即癌症风险预测和风险 减少、癌症筛查、癌症结果和生存）。 C-STEPS 建立在现有资源的基础上 新墨西哥大学综合癌症中心。具体目标是： 1) 提供基础 通过基于探究的研究研讨会了解癌症领域当前和新兴的创新 通过团队建设活动进行预防和控制以及协作团队科学。 2）提供基于技能的 指导研究经验。 3) 提供在以下领域实施 STEM-H 职业规划的具体机会 与教师和“同行”进行个性化指导并进行合作（UNM STEM Gateway 本科生和 2-5 年级回归的 C-STEPS 校友）和“近同龄人”（研究生、博士后） 研究员）；包括制定促进职业发展的个人发展计划。 C-STEPS 将 增加攻读研究生或专业学校的本科生数量，并最终进行研究 从而解决癌症和健康领域训练有素的 STEM-H 专业人员的国家优先事项 专注的职业。
