There is a national challenge to meet the increasing need for trained professional and technical individuals in biomedical and health related occupations. Disadvantaged students under-represented in biomedical careers, provide a large pool of available talent that can be recruited in both basic and medical sciences. Disadvantaged students' access to biomedical careers is often restricted by lack of knowledge of career paths and inadequate exposure to opportunities and role models. The Medical College of Pennsylvania and Hahnemann University (MCPHU) has addressed this challenge by developing an inclusive program called: PATHWAYS TO HEALTH CAREERS FOR DISADVANTAGED STUDENTS. This initiative addresses the goal of increasing participation of disadvantaged groups in medicine and biomedical sciences. MCPHU provides an inclusive professional community where students can develop the skills and self-confidence required for professional success. This initiative extends to helping science teachers of these students be better prepared and use innovative educational techniques such as Problem Based Learning. This initiative currently targets four groups of students in addition to Philadelphia area teachers: 1) local middle school students, 2) local high school students, 3) undergraduate college students and 4) pre-matriculates into medical school. This proposal specifically addresses MCPHU's Research Program for Teachers and Disadvantaged High School Students. The goal of this program is to provide high school students with the tools required to gain access to a professional school through scientific research and to give teachers the tools to understand scientific research and impart this understanding to their students during the academic years. Hands-on laboratory research in basic science laboratories is combined with techniques of problem based learning in a summer and academic year program. The proposed program targets teachers and high school students which have been continuously involved in MCPHU programs and in addition to teachers and students from the greater Philadelphia area school system. This program continues a long tradition of support for disadvantaged populations in medicine and the basic sciences by the Medical School of Pennsylvania and Hahnemann University.

国家面临的挑战是满足日益增长的对训练有素的 生物医学和健康相关领域的专业和技术人员 职业。在生物医学专业中， 职业生涯，提供了一个可用的人才库，可以招募 在基础科学和医学领域。剥夺学生获得 生物医学职业往往受到缺乏职业知识的限制 路径和机会和榜样接触不足。 宾夕法尼亚医学院和哈内曼大学（MCPHU） 为了应对这一挑战，制定了一项包容性方案，称为： 残疾人的健康事业之路。 这一倡议 实现了增加弱势群体参与的目标， 医学和生物医学科学。MCPHU提供了一个包容性的专业 社区，学生可以发展技能和自信 专业成功所需的。这一举措延伸到帮助 这些学生的科学教师更好地准备和使用创新 教育技术，如基于问题的学习。这一倡议 目前，除了费城以外， 地区教师：1）当地中学生，2）当地高中 学生，3）本科生和4）预科生进入 医学院 该提案专门针对MCPHU的研究计划， 教师和dispersed高中学生。该计划的目标 是为高中生提供必要的工具 通过科学研究， 理解科学研究并传授这种理解的工具 在学术期间，他们的学生。动手实验室研究 在基础科学实验室中， 在夏季和学年计划的基础上学习。拟议 该计划的目标是教师和高中学生， 不断参与MCPHU计划，除了教师和 大费城地区学校系统的学生。这个程序 继续支持弱势群体的悠久传统 宾夕法尼亚医学院在医学和基础科学方面的研究 哈内曼大学
