DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Current Florida and NIH initiatives in translational research (NIH Roadmap for Medical Research) require that today's students understand, and are academically prepared for, the research, clinical and technical positions increasingly available in the continuum from basic research to marketable medicines, diagnostics and devices. However, few high school teachers have awareness or access to information about rapidly developing biomedical science content, technologies, and careers. To address this unmet need, we propose to create and expand partnerships that (1) connect researchers in interdisciplinary biomedical sciences with teachers in high schools and (2) promote interest in and preparation for bioscience careers. Our proposal, Biomedical Explorations: Bench to Bedside, includes science and education partners in an innovative program available for graduate credit leading to a Certificate in Biotechnology Education. The program integrates experiences from a two-week Institute in the summer into classroom action during the school year. During the Institute, an experimental sequence in authentic basic science, clinical and applied research environments will illustrate current scientific content, pedagogical methods, diverse career options, and conceptual and technological interrelationships within the bench to bedside continuum. Teachers, together with science and education researchers, will develop appropriate and affordable lessons and laboratory exercises that convey to their students the principles of translational research and drug development in the context of career choices. During the school year, action research proposals, resources, formal presentations, review of classroom outcomes, and incentives for ongoing professional development aim to provide continuing support and encouragement to transition scientific processes, real-world skills, and enthusiasm for bioscience careers to schools in rural and economically disadvantaged settings. The structural components of the proposed model are designed to be transportable to research institutions who seek to adapt their disciplinary strengths, through ongoing school partnerships, to meet national and regional needs to improve science teaching/learning and to deepen student preparation for, and excitement about, science and technical careers. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by applicant): The need for Biotechnology Education in Florida has increased dramatically in response to the successes and continuing expansion of translational research at the University of Florida and its sister institutions, the rapid growth of the Bioscience Industry fostered by the State, and the emergence of academic/industrial partnerships in the biosciences. Our Biomedical Explorations: Bench to Bedside proposal supports science teachers in ongoing opportunities for personal enrichment and professional advancement in biotechnology education, and empowers them as agents of change in classroom. This Program draws on all components of medical and biotechnology research and education at the University of Florida in order to further the recruitment, education, and certification of high school teachers, especially those from rural and underserved communities in regions where the need for a well-prepared workforce is high and awareness of, and preparation for, careers in the biosciences is low.

描述（由申请人提供）：当前的佛罗里达州和NIH转化研究计划（NIH的医学研究路线图）要求当今的学生理解并为研究，临床和技术职位做好了准备，从基础研究到可销售的药物，诊断和设备的研究，临床和技术职位越来越多。但是，很少有高中教师对快速开发生物医学科学内容，技术和职业的信息有意识或获取信息。为了满足这种未满足的需求，我们建议建立和扩展伙伴关系，（1）（1）将跨学科生物医学科学的研究人员与高中教师联系起来，（2）促进对生物科学职业的兴趣和准备。 我们的建议，生物医学探索：长凳到床边，包括科学和教育合作伙伴的创新计划，可用于研究生学分，从而获得生物技术教育证书。该计划将夏季一个为期两周的研究所的经验整合到学年中的课堂行动中。在该研究所期间，真实的基础科学，临床和应用研究环境中的实验序列将说明当前的科学内容，教学方法，不同的职业选择以及卧床式连续性的概念和技术相互关系。教师与科学和教育研究人员一起，将开发适当且负担得起的课程和实验室练习，以在职业选择的背景下向学生传达转化研究和药物开发的原则。在学年中，行动研究建议，资源，正式演讲，课堂成果的审查以及持续的专业发展的激励措施，旨在为过渡科学流程，现实世界的技能以及对在农村和经济上不利的环境中对学校的生物科学事业的热情提供持续的支持和鼓励。 拟议模型的结构性组成部分旨在通过持续的学校合作伙伴关系来调整其学科优势的研究机构，以满足国家和地区的需求，以改善科学教学/学习，并加深对学生的准备和兴奋，对科学和技术职业。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：佛罗里达州对生物技术教育的需求急剧增加，这是响应佛罗里达大学及其姊妹机构的成功和持续扩展的转化研究，国家促进了国家促进的生物科学行业，以及生物科学中的学术/工业合作伙伴关系的迅速发展。我们的生物医学探索：床头提案的基础提案支持科学教师在生物技术教育方面的个人丰富和专业发展的持续机会，并赋予他们作为课堂变化的推动者。该计划借鉴了佛罗里达大学的医学和生物技术研究和教育的所有组成部分，以进一步促进高中教师的招聘，教育和证明，尤其是那些来自农村和服务不足的社区的招聘，教育和认证，在这些地区需要充分准备好劳动力的地区，并且对生物学家的职业生成了很高，并且为生物学家提供了高度的准备。
