DESCRIPTION (Adapted From Application): The applicant seeks support for a four-year continuation of a program under a new P.I. The program is exceptional and novel in its form and success. This innovative program at the University of Arizona (UA) is termed the Biomedical Research Abroad: Vistas Open Program (BRAVO!/MIRT) and is designed to prepare minority students under-represented in the sciences enabling them to conduct research projects in diffuse locations abroad that build upon the research they do at UA. Student projects span a broad range of disciplines. All are related to biomedical or behavioral research that have a connection to health problems that in one way or another affect under-served groups in the US or abroad. The BRAVO!/MIRT activities are integrated into UA's Undergraduate Biology Research Program (UBRP). The international experience is a part of a research experience-continuum that begins in the first two years of college and continues after their return. This embeds the international experience into the students' education, maximizing its benefits. Of the 43 trainees in the program from 93-99, three students have received their doctoral degrees, four have received masters, two have received MD degrees, and 27 have received bachelor's degrees. Eight are still in medical school; 13 are in graduate school, seven are in research-related positions while applying to graduate or medical school, and eight are current undergraduates. The majority of MIRT student trainees have been female (53%) and Hispanic (76%). The program is meeting its goal of increasing the number of minority scientists conducting biomedical and behavioral research and preparing them to be part of the international scientific community.

描述(改编自申请)：申请人寻求支持 在新的P.I.下继续进行四年的计划。该计划是例外的 在形式和成功方面都很新颖。加州大学的这一创新项目 亚利桑那州(UA)被称为国外生物医学研究：Vistas开放计划 (好极了！/MIRT)，旨在帮助在 科学使他们能够在分散的地点进行研究项目 在国外，这是建立在他们在UA所做研究的基础上的。学生项目跨度为 学科的范围很广。所有这些都与生物医学或行为学有关 以这样或那样的方式与健康问题有关的研究 影响到美国或国外服务不足的群体。Bravo！/MIRT活动是 纳入了加州大学本科生生物学研究计划(UBRP)。这个 国际经验是研究经验的一部分--连续统一体 从大学的头两年开始，在他们回来后继续。这 将国际经验融入学生教育，最大限度地发挥 它的好处。 在93-99年间参加该项目的43名实习生中，有3名学生获得了 他们的博士学位中，四人获得硕士学位，两人获得医学博士学位 其中，获得学士学位的有27人。8人仍在接受治疗 学校；13人在研究生院，7人在与研究有关的职位 在申请研究生或医学院时，有8人正在申请 本科生。工信部学员大多为女性(53%) 西班牙裔(76%)。该计划正在实现其目标，即增加 少数民族科学家从事生物医学和行为研究并准备 他们将成为国际科学界的一部分。
