DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Short-term research training support is requested for six students recruited from schools and colleges of optometry to a three-month summer rotation at The Ohio State University College of Optometry. The goal of the training program is to encourage students to embark on a career in eye research. The training will be conducted in the laboratories of well-established eye and vision researchers, primarily members of the College of Optometry but with representation from the Departments of Neuroscience, Psychology, and Pediatrics. The research expertise of the faculty mentors can be divided into three clearly identifiable program areas: ocular epidemiology, biological sciences, and visual perception. This critical mass of vision researchers possess over 10 current National Institutes of Health and National Science Foundation research grants between them and includes 15 National Eye Institute grantees. Collectively, the mentors are currently training over 40 enrolled graduate students. The majority of mentors are members of the Graduate Program in Vision Science which was established over 50 years ago and has since trained more than 150 graduate students.* Trainees will participate for three months on a full-time basis during the summer following their first year of optometry training. The Training Program will include regular seminars and participation in the ongoing research in an assigned mentor's laboratory. Recruitment will be directed primarily at: students enrolled in The Ohio State University College of Optometry; and underrepresented minority students at all schools and colleges in the United States.

描述（由申请人提供）：短期研究培训支持要求从学校和验光学院招募六名学生，在俄亥俄州州立大学验光学院进行为期三个月的夏季轮换。培训计划的目标是鼓励学生从事眼科研究。培训将在实验室进行的成熟的眼睛和视觉研究人员，主要是验光学院的成员，但从神经科学，心理学和儿科部门的代表。教师导师的研究专业知识可以分为三个明确的程序领域：眼流行病学，生物科学和视觉感知。这些视觉研究人员拥有超过10个目前的国立卫生研究院和国家科学基金会研究赠款，其中包括15个国家眼科研究所的资助者。 导师们目前正在培训40多名注册的研究生。大多数导师都是视觉科学研究生课程的成员，该课程成立于50多年前，至今已培养了150多名研究生。 学员将参加为期三个月的全职基础上，在夏季后，他们的第一年的验光培训。培训计划将包括定期研讨会和参与指定导师实验室正在进行的研究。 招聘将主要针对：在俄亥俄州州立大学验光学院就读的学生;以及在美国所有学校和学院代表性不足的少数民族学生。
