DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a resubmission from the Leadership Alliance (the Alliance) to support the Leadership Alliance National Symposium (LANS). The LANS is a 2 1/2-day weekend conference that provides a research presentation stage and networking/ mentoring venue for undergraduates and graduates primarily from underrepresented and underserved populations who participate in the Leadership Alliance summer program or who are associated with an Alliance member institution. The goals of the LANS are to build trainees' confidence in their research communication skills, clarify their knowledge about the steps needed to apply for and succeed in various training pathways; to learn the different academic career paths and to experience this learning within a trusted network of peers and role models. In order to accomplish these objectives, we propose to continue our informative and innovative summer research symposium through the following specific aims in which we will: 1. Host an interactive research forum and technical workshops that will enable a diverse group of undergraduates to communicate their research findings in an intimate and supportive environment; 2. Provide technical workshops and skills-building opportunities for graduate students; 3. Develop workshops and mentoring opportunities for recent PhD and MD/PhD alumni; 4. Clarify career paths and provide networking with role models for all participants; 5. Evaluate results for achieving these aims and goals to develop useful products and to disseminate the results. RELEVANCE: Through a longstanding partnership between minority-serving institutions and research-serving institutions LANS provides: 1) a biomedical research symposium for students with broad national impact; 2) workshops on graduate school survival skills; 3) well defined ancillary training activities; and 4) workshops for pre-docs and recent PhD graduates to encourage attainment of leadership positions in the STEM fields.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是领导力联盟（联盟）为支持领导力联盟全国研讨会（LANS）而重新提交的文件。LANS是一个为期两天半的周末会议，主要为参加领导力联盟暑期项目或与联盟成员机构有关的代表性不足和服务不足的本科生和毕业生提供研究展示和网络/指导场所。局域网的目标是建立学员对他们的研究沟通技巧的信心，澄清他们对申请和成功参加各种培训途径所需步骤的了解；学习不同的学术职业道路，并在一个值得信赖的同龄人和榜样网络中体验这种学习。为了实现这些目标，我们建议通过以下具体目标继续我们的信息和创新的夏季研究研讨会：举办互动研究论坛和技术研讨会，使不同群体的本科生能够在亲密和支持的环境中交流他们的研究成果；2. 为研究生提供技术研讨会和技能培养机会；3. 为最近的博士和医学博士/博士校友提供研讨会和指导机会；4. 明确职业道路，并为所有参与者提供榜样网络；5. 评估实现这些目的和目标的结果，以开发有用的产品并传播结果。
