DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The specific aim of this short-term research education program is to provide an inspirational, in-depth, intensive, perspective-enhancing and -transforming early exposure to pulmonary research at the University of Colorado School of Medicine for diverse and underrepresented undergraduate students in biomedical research ("diversity students") from Princeton University and the University of Notre Dame. Our program design will be each year to recruit 2 trainees from Princeton University and 2 from the University of Notre Dame - both premier universities that do not have their own medical schools. After selection by a diverse and inclusive committee at each university, each trainee will work in the laboratory for 12 summer weeks with a regarded pulmonary investigator/mentor. Each trainee will help design their project, perform hands-on research, attend lectures about research (e.g. data analysis, poster presentation approaches, and research ethics), participate in complementary clinical conferences, receive health professions related career advice from faculty and students of diversity, shadow pulmonary physicians in clinical settings, and be integrated into our school's diversity activities and social community. The innovative features of our program of bringing highly-talented diversity students from these two prestigious universities to the University of Colorado is based on our prior successful experience in recruiting and training non-diversity undergraduate students from Princeton University in summer research fellowships ("Fitzgerald Fellows") for the last 9 years and our close relationship with the University of Notre Dame. We will also fully integrate our research program with an experience in pulmonary clinical medicine to provide career insights and increase the meaningfulness and relevance of the research effort of our trainees. Our program director will be John E. Repine, MD - a pulmonary physician-scientist who directed our Medical Student Research Program for two decades and helped create our existing Princeton University- Webb-Waring summer research program. In addition, each trainee will have extensive contact with Robert A. Winn, MD, a pulmonary physician-scientist-role model and our Associate Dean of Medical School Admissions, and Arthur Gutierrez-Hartmann, MD, another role model and our MSTP Program Director. Short- and long-term outcomes will be assessed independently by Gretchen Guiton, PhD, the Head of our Evaluation Center. The significance of our program will be to increase the interest and preparation for health science professional and research careers of the truly exceptional diversity students from these two outstanding schools making these students more likely to (1) be accepted to preeminent research oriented medical and other professional schools, (2) participate in research as part of their future professional education and postgraduate training, and (3) seek careers in health related research in academic and industrial settings.

描述（由申请人提供）：这个短期研究教育项目的具体目的是为来自普林斯顿大学和圣母大学的生物医学研究的多样化和代表性不足的本科生（“多样性学生”）提供一个鼓舞人心的、深入的、密集的、增强视角的和转变性的早期接触科罗拉多大学医学院的肺部研究。我们的计划是每年从普林斯顿大学和圣母大学招收两名实习生，这两所大学都是一流的大学，没有自己的医学院。经过每所大学的多元化和包容性委员会的选拔后，每位实习生将在实验室与一位受人尊敬的肺病调查员/导师一起工作12周。每位实习生将帮助设计他们的项目，进行实践研究，参加有关研究的讲座（例如数据分析，海报展示方法和研究伦理），参加补充临床会议，从多元化的教师和学生那里获得与卫生专业相关的职业建议，在临床环境中影子肺部医生，并融入我们学校的多元化活动和社会社区。我们将来自这两所著名大学的优秀多元化学生带到科罗拉多大学的项目的创新之处，是基于我们在过去9年里以暑期研究奖学金（菲茨杰拉德奖学金）从普林斯顿大学招募和培训非多元化本科生的成功经验，以及我们与圣母大学的密切关系。我们还将把我们的研究项目与肺部临床医学的经验充分结合起来，为学员提供职业见解，增加研究工作的意义和相关性。我们的项目主管将是John E. Repine医学博士，他是一名肺病内科医生兼科学家，曾指导我们的医学生研究项目20年，并帮助创建了我们现有的普林斯顿大学韦伯-韦林暑期研究项目。此外，每位受训者将与Robert a . Winn医学博士和Arthur Gutierrez-Hartmann医学博士有广泛的接触，Robert a . Winn医学博士是一位肺病医生、科学家、榜样，也是我们医学院招生的副院长；Arthur gutierrez医学博士是另一位榜样，也是我们的MSTP项目主任。短期和长期结果将由评估中心主任Gretchen Guiton博士独立评估。我们项目的意义在于增加来自这两所优秀学校的真正杰出的多元化学生对健康科学专业和研究事业的兴趣和准备，使这些学生更有可能(1)被卓越的研究型医学和其他专业学校录取，(2)参与研究，作为他们未来专业教育和研究生培训的一部分，(3)在学术和工业环境中寻求健康相关研究的职业。
