DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): UCI proposes to develop a Summer Research Institute for upper division undergraduate students at the University of California, Irvine focusing on "Social Ecology, Health Promotion and Disease Prevention". The social ecological model of health and disease emphasizes the contextual analysis of illness etiology and prevention whereby multiple, diverse risk factors and health promotion strategies are examined at multiple levels of analysis ranging from molecular (e.g., biogenetic) to molar (e.g., societal stressors, urban design features), and integrated within more comprehensive transdisciplinary research and prevention programs. One of the limitations of prior cancer research is that there has been an insufficient integration of disciplinary perspectives targeting different categories, for example, of cancer risk factors situated at multiple levels of analysis (e.g., ranging from biogenetic risk factors, personality and sociodemographic correlates of cancer, biopsychosocial bases of tobacco addiction and control, macro environmental design and urban planning strategies aimed at promoting higher levels of physical activity in the population). Over a three-year period, the proposed summer research institute would train over 100 highly talented undergraduate researchers in several disciplines relevant to the analysis and reduction of disease-related risk factors and the enhancement of health promotion. The Institute will extend for six weeks during the summer months. Institute leaders will work with existing minority science programs at UCI to attract talented women and minority undergraduate researchers for participation in the Institute.

描述（由申请人提供）： UCI建议为加州大学欧文分校的高年级本科生建立一个暑期研究所，重点是“社会生态、健康促进和疾病预防”。健康和疾病的社会生态模型强调疾病病因学和预防的背景分析，从而在从分子（例如，生物遗传的）到臼齿（例如，社会压力源，城市设计特征），并纳入更全面的跨学科研究和预防计划。 现有癌症研究的局限性之一是针对不同类别的学科观点的整合不足，例如，位于多个分析水平的癌症风险因素（例如，从生物遗传风险因素、癌症的个性和社会人口学相关因素、烟草成瘾和控制的生物心理社会基础、宏观环境设计和旨在促进人口中更高水平体育活动的城市规划战略等。拟议的暑期研究所将在三年期间培训100多名才华横溢的本科研究人员，他们将从事与分析和减少疾病相关风险因素以及加强健康促进有关的若干学科。 该研究所将在夏季延长六周。研究所领导人将与UCI现有的少数民族科学项目合作，以吸引有才华的女性和少数民族本科研究人员参与研究所。
