DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Kansas University Medical Center (KUMC), through the Office of Cultural Enhancement and Diversity, will leverage our 20 year history of success in establishing robust partnerships between K-20 students, teachers, families, communities, and our academic health center to develop and implement a five- Phase I and II inquiry based multimodal, project. The proposed project, Kansas PathOlogical Life Sciences Training Program, will create programs and activities that will improve area high school students knowledge about clinical research and life sciences; improve life science and health literacy in our communities; and increase community awareness of clinical research and knowledge about the clinical trial process in order to improve underrepresented communities participation. There are five main components to Phase I. First, we will engage 4 10th-12th Kansas City Kansas (KCK) students from our partner high schools as PathOlogical Biomedical Library Interns. These students will assist in identifying science/evidence-based literature, information about NIH supported clinical research and clinical trials and health disparities, for use in our curriculum. Second, we will develop and implement Camp PathOlogical, an innovative 5-week inquiry-based biomedical science summer program for 24 underrepresented minority (URM), or underserved students in 11th-12th grades. We will apply problem based learning, standardized patients, and electronic health records to teach the pathologic basis of disease and how this knowledge informs patient diagnosis, management and prediction, tour the General Clinical Research Center (GCRC) and develop clinical trials specific to our patient or "problem". Faculty will include KCK USD500 master teachers, KCK Community College (KCKCC) and KUMC faculty. Third, KUMC and KCKCC faculty will develop and implement a seminar series targeting students, teachers and families that will increase life science literacy, knowledge about clinical trials and insight into barriers for URM participation in clinical trials. Fourth, we will engage 25 high school students to develop multimedia programs using technology such as streaming video, DVD and cable broadcast. Fifth, we will engage 10 11th-12th grade students in partnership with our GCRC in clinical and translational research. This project builds on our committed efforts to increase awareness, interest, preparedness, and ultimately participation of URM in science and health professions careers. In Phase II we will disseminate our programs to the Greater Kansas City area and nationally using student participation, multimedia materials, web-based technologies and the Library systems-Biomedical, School Districts and State. Inequality or differences in the burden of disease remains a stubborn and growing public health problem for the United States. Increased knowledge of and access to reliable information about life sciences and the newest treatments, along with increasing the number of scientists and doctors who come from the people who experience these differences in disease will go far to correct this problem. The overall goal of this project is to develop programs and activities that will increase knowledge of and access to life sciences and clinical trial information for students and communities in Kansas City.

描述（由申请人提供）：堪萨斯大学医学中心 (KUMC) 通过文化增强和多样性办公室，将利用我们 20 年在 K-20 学生、教师、家庭、社区和我们的学术健康中心之间建立牢固合作伙伴关系的成功历史，开发和实施一个五阶段、第一阶段和第二阶段基于探究的多模式项目。拟议的项目“堪萨斯病理生命科学培训计划”将创建项目和活动，以提高地区高中生对临床研究和生命科学的了解；提高我们社区的生命科学和健康素养；提高社区对临床研究的认识和对临床试验过程的了解，以提高代表性不足的社区的参与度。第一阶段有五个主要组成部分。首先，我们将聘请来自合作伙伴高中的 4 名堪萨斯城第 10 至第 12 届 (KCK) 学生作为病理生物医学图书馆实习生。这些学生将协助识别基于科学/证据的文献、有关 NIH 支持的临床研究和临床试验以及健康差异的信息，以在我们的课程中使用。其次，我们将开发和实施 Camp PathOological，这是一项为期 5 周、以探究为基础的创新生物医学科学暑期项目，面向 24 名代表性不足的少数族裔 (URM) 或 11 至 12 年级的服务不足的学生。我们将应用基于问题的学习、标准化患者和电子健康记录来教授疾病的病理基础以及这些知识如何为患者的诊断、管理和预测提供信息，参观普通临床研究中心 (GCRC) 并针对我们的患者或“问题”开展临床试验。教师队伍将包括 KCK 500 美元的大师级教师、KCK 社区学院 (KCKCC) 和 KUMC 教师。第三，KUMC 和 KCKCC 教师将开发和实施针对学生、教师和家庭的系列研讨会，以提高生命科学素养、临床试验知识并深入了解 URM 参与临床试验的障碍。第四，我们将聘请25名高中生利用流媒体视频、DVD和有线广播等技术开发多媒体节目。第五，我们将与 GCRC 合作，聘请 10 名 11-12 年级学生进行临床和转化研究。该项目建立在我们致力于提高 URM 对科学和健康专业职业的认识、兴趣、准备和最终参与的努力之上。在第二阶段，我们将利用学生参与、多媒体材料、基于网络的技术和生物医学、学区和州的图书馆系统，向大堪萨斯城地区和全国传播我们的计划。 疾病负担的不平等或差异仍然是美国一个顽固且日益严重的公共卫生问题。增加对生命科学和最新疗法的可靠信息的了解和获取，以及来自经历这些疾病差异的人们的科学家和医生数量的增加，将大大有助于解决这个问题。该项目的总体目标是制定计划和活动，以增加堪萨斯城学生和社区对生命科学和临床试验信息的了解和获取。
