DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this application is to secure continued funding for the Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI) Summer Research Experience Program. During the past four summers (2001-2004) we have trained 56 college and 83 medical/dental students. The goal of the program is to expose undergraduate college, physician assistant (PA), and medical/dental students to the challenges and rewards of a career in oncology. This proposal presents two distinct types of short-term, summer experience programs targeting 15 medical and dental students and 5 physician assistant students for an 8 week experience and 15 college students over a 10 week period. Specific programmatic goals are to: provide medical, dental and PA students with clinical/research experiences in oncology; and to provide college students with an opportunity to participate in cutting-edge basic scientific research. It is hoped that such training will attract trainees to careers in oncology or, at the very least, positively influence their perception of the role of the comprehensive cancer center. In addition to mentored experiences students will attend regularly scheduled seminars. These seminars will afford trainees with an opportunity to meet with faculty from throughout our institution as well as visiting faculty who are some of the leading researchers in the world to hear of the latest discoveries and looming challenges. Central to the design of both programs is the immersion of the student in the life of a comprehensive cancer center under the guidance of strong mentorship working on critical clinical/research questions. While the design may appear pedestrian, it is anything but passe. As will be demonstrated in this application, true program innovation rests not in the structure, but in the content (i.e., the science). We have been successful in the recruitment of underrepresented and minority students and will continue to focus on this issue. The program is evaluated at multiple levels and the evaluation plan is also designed to collect longer term outcome data. Continued collection of and reflection on evaluation data has been especially instructive over the years in fine tuning our program. Program curriculum and data from past evaluations have been published and presented at national meetings. This will continue to be done as a means of diffusing the lessons learned through the conduct of these programs.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的目的是确保罗斯威尔公园癌症研究所（RPCI）夏季研究经验计划的持续资助。在过去四个夏季（2001-2004年），我们培训了56名大学生和83名医学/牙科学生。该计划的目标是让本科生，医师助理（PA）和医学/牙科学生接触肿瘤学职业生涯的挑战和回报。该提案提出了两种不同类型的短期暑期体验计划，针对15名医学和牙科学生和5名医师助理学生，为期8周，15名大学生为期10周。具体的计划目标是：为医学，牙科和PA学生提供肿瘤学的临床/研究经验;并为大学生提供参与尖端基础科研的机会。希望这样的培训将吸引学员从事肿瘤学职业，或者至少积极影响他们对综合癌症中心作用的看法。除了指导经验，学生将参加定期安排的研讨会。这些研讨会将为学员提供一个机会，以满足来自我们整个机构的教师以及访问教师谁是世界上一些领先的研究人员听到的最新发现和迫在眉睫的挑战。这两个项目的设计核心是学生在关键临床/研究问题的指导下，沉浸在综合癌症中心的生活中。虽然设计可能看起来行人，它是什么，但过时。正如本申请中将证明的那样，真正的程序创新不在于结构，而在于内容（即，科学）。我们成功地招收了代表性不足的少数民族学生，并将继续关注这一问题。该计划在多个层面进行评估，评估计划也旨在收集长期结果数据。多年来，不断收集和反思评估数据对我们的方案进行微调特别有指导意义。方案课程和以往评价的数据已经出版并在国家会议上提出。将继续这样做，以传播通过实施这些方案所吸取的经验教训。
