项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): University of Colorado Denver has a successful undergraduate (UG) student diversity research short-term internship program. Better known as GEMS (Graduate Experiences for Multicultural Students), it pairs UG students from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds with lab mentors. Over the past 10 years, 101 UG students participated: 27 are still UG (85% will apply to professional schools); 74 have graduated, 49 are in some health professional school or have a health-professional degree for a success rate of 66%. The Clinical Translational Science Award (CTSA) launched the Colorado Clinical Translational Science Institute (CCTSI) to build infrastructure for educational resources/enhancement of translational research. The CCTSI will partner with the GEMS program. In this new R25 we request funds to continue (and replace) the 10 year-old NHLBI-funded T35 GEMS and provide experiences to 10 UG and 2 health professional students. We propose several aims: 1.expose students to research careers by immersion in laboratories with basic or physician scientists; 2. expose students to quantitative and analytical skills; 3. improve student comprehension of science by participation in brown bags covering several topics; 4. expose students to science topics through research seminars; 5. increase awareness of clinical/translational research by shadowing physician scientists at the clinic; 6. create a website in partnership with the CCTSI to track students. With this award, we will continue to stimulate students from diverse backgrounds to pursue health-related careers. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This internship program at the University of Colorado Denver, Anschutz Medical Campus, seeks to expose undergraduate and health professional students from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds to summer laboratory or clinical translational research experiences in order to increase their representation in research related to cardiovascular, pulmonary or hematologic areas. The goal is to create a workforce of health-related researchers who are as diverse as the community they serve. By exposing these students early in their careers, we hope to capture their interest and excite them about the possibilities of biomedical research. (End of Abstract)

描述（由申请人提供）：科罗拉多大学丹佛分校拥有成功的本科（UG）学生多样性研究短期实习计划。它称为宝石（多元文化学生的研究生经验），它与来自不同和处境不利的背景的UG学生与实验室导师相结合。在过去的10年中，有101名UG学生参加：27名仍然是UG（85％将适用于专业学校）；有74个毕业，有49个在某些卫生专业学校，或者拥有成功率为66％的健康专业学位。临床转化科学奖（CTSA）启动了科罗拉多州临床转化科学研究所（CCTSI），以建立用于教育资源/增强转化研究的基础设施。 CCTSI将与GEMS计划合作。在新的R25中，我们要求资金继续（并取代）10岁的NHLBI资助的T35宝石，并为10名UG和2名健康专业学生提供体验。我们提出了几个目标：1。将学生浸入与基础或医师科学家的实验室中的研究职业； 2。使学生了解定量和分析技能； 3。通过参加涉及几个主题的棕色袋子来提高学生对科学的理解； 4。通过研究研讨会使学生了解科学主题； 5。通过诊所的遮蔽医师科学家提高对临床/转化研究的认识； 6.与CCTSI合作创建一个网站以跟踪学生。有了这个奖项，我们将继续刺激来自不同背景的学生从事与健康有关的职业。公共卫生相关性：科罗拉多大学丹佛分校的实习计划Anschutz Medical Campus试图向本科和卫生专业学生展示来自暑期实验室或临床转化研究经验的各种背景和弱势背景的学生，以增加与心血管，肺病或血液学领域有关的研究的表现。目的是创建与健康相关的研究人员的劳动力，这些研究人员与他们所服务的社区一样多样化。通过在职业生涯的早期将这些学生展示，我们希望吸引他们的兴趣，并激发他们对生物医学研究的可能性的兴奋。（抽象的结尾）
