Training in Translational Research-Bench to Bedside

描述（由申请人提供）：“学生发展”定义了医学倡议的马约诊所学院少数民族学生发展（IMSD）的使命。医学IMSD的马约诊所学院的目标是激发兴趣，培养少数民族学生在以病人为导向的基础，转化和临床研究。在该计划的前7年，定性研究揭示了最终坚持进入博士，医学博士/博士和临床研究职业的学生的共同特征，以改善学生的选择过程。通过专注于以患者为导向的研究，学生能够更好地看到他们的研究的价值，并看到他们如何能够在他们的职业生涯中作为科学家和/或医生的重要研究问题作出贡献。有了这个愿景，他们最有可能将研究作为他们职业生涯的全部或一部分。 IMSD有两个密切协调的序列，以帮助学生对实验室和临床研究的职业生涯。对于实验室研究，IMSD提供：（1）10周的夏季本科研究计划;（2）与马约学士后研究计划的联系;（3）为博士和MD/博士生提供新的2年序列，以加强专业发展。对于临床研究，IMSD提供：（1）为期8周的医学生暑期研究计划;（2）医学院第三或第四年后的1年证书或2年硕士临床研究。 暑期课程提供了一个简短但深入的研究经验，模仿科学发现的令人兴奋的元素;研讨会，向他们介绍全方位的研究选择（从板凳到床边和背部）;和每周小组会议，学习重要的研究技能。临床研究培训计划和博士课程为学生提供独立所需的技能。广泛的指导和建议，帮助每个学生确定和超越自己独特的职业目标。该马约IMSD服务，以增加自己的学位课程的多样性，并准备在美国各地的成功学生。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): "Student Development" defines the mission of the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine Initiative for Minority Student Development (IMSD). The goal of the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine IMSD is to stimulate interest and train minority students in patient-oriented basic, translational and clinical research. During the first 7 years of this program, qualitative research has revealed common characteristics among students who ultimately persist into PhD, MD/PhD and clinical research careers to improve student selection process. By focusing on patient-oriented research students are better able to see the value of their research, and see how they can contribute to important research questions during their careers as scientists and/or physicians. With this vision they are most likely to include research as all or part of their careers. The IMSD has two closely coordinated sequences to assist students toward laboratory and clinical research careers. For laboratory research, the IMSD provides: (1) 10-week summer undergraduate research program; (2) linkage to the Mayo postbaccalaureate research program; (3) a new 2-year sequence for PhD and MD/PhD students to enhance professional development. For clinical research, the IMSD provides: (1) 8-week summer research program for medical students; (2) a 1-year Certificate or 2-year Masters Clinical Research following their third or fourth year of medical school. The summer programs provide a brief but deep research experience that mimics the exciting elements of scientific discovery; seminars to introduce them to the full range of research options (from bench to bedside and back); and a weekly group meeting to learn important research skills. The Clinical Research Training Program and PhD programs give students the skills they need to become independent. Extensive guidance and advising helps each student identify and excel in their unique career goals. The Mayo IMSD serves to increase the diversity of its own degree programs and prepare students for success around the U.S.
