This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. The overall mission of the Undergraduate Activities and Outreach Core is to increase the number and quality of graduate students in biomedical and related sciences. Student selection for the OK-INBRE Summer Undergraduate Research Program for year 10 concluded with 87 student applications from 10 undergraduate institutions. Twenty students were selected to participate in research projects for the summer of year 10. The OK-INBRE summer program for community college students brought 29 student applications from the partner OK-INBRE community colleges. Sixteen of these students were matched with mentors for the summer term. The program consists of a one-week "boot camp" the students are required to pass before proceeding to the summer program. Under the OK-INBRE small grant program, 3 Collaborative, 4 Mini-Grant applications, and 3 Equipment grant applications were funded after peer review, from 25 applications submitted. Additionally, the website has been maintained, an email list serve disseminating grant opportunities is sent weekly to the state system, a summer grant writing institute will be held, and visits to all participating OK-INBRE institutions to assess needs will be carried out in the next funding period. The 12th annual Oklahoma Research Day also was carried out with partial support from OK-INBRE in November 2010. We also provided partial support for a "mini-medical school" symposium in the fall of 2010 put on at OUHSC by the Oklahoma Center for Neurosciences. This event offers students the opportunity to sit in the seat of a typical medical student and to expand and challenge their knowledge of the brain. The class combines basic anatomy, physiology and clinical situations to gain a better understanding of the brain's function and neurological diseases using a clinical-translational science approach. Finally, we also provided partial funding for the Women in Science symposium that is headed by the OK-EPSCoR program, but is sponsored by many different programs, including OK-INBRE. Funding was also continued for development of strategic plans by the community colleges. Travel to the SACNAS and AISES conferences for American Indian students to present their OK-INBRE funded research was also continued this funding period. These talented American Indian students are selected on their academic performance, laboratory skill performance, and their goal of having a future career in biomedical research.

这个子项目是利用资源的许多研究子项目之一。 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。对子项目的主要支持 子项目的首席调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括美国国立卫生研究院的其他来源。为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示该子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 不是由NCRR赠款提供给次级项目或次级项目工作人员的直接资金。 本科生活动和外联核心的总体任务是提高生物医学和相关科学研究生的数量和质量。10年级OK-INBRE暑期本科生研究项目的选拔结束了，来自10所本科院校的87名学生提出了申请。20名学生被选中参加10年级暑假的研究项目。OK-INBRE社区学院学生暑期项目收到了合作伙伴OK-INBRE社区学院的29份学生申请。这些学生中有16人在暑期得到了导师的配合。该计划包括为期一周的“新兵训练营”，学生们必须通过才能进入暑期计划。在OK-INBRE小额赠款方案下，在提交的25份申请中，有3份合作申请、4份微型赠款申请和3份设备赠款申请在同行审查后获得资助。此外，对网站进行了维护，每周向州系统发送一份传播赠款机会的电子邮件清单，将举行夏季赠款撰写研究所，并将在下一个供资期间访问所有参与的OK-INBRE机构，以评估需求。在俄克拉荷马州研究中心的部分支持下，还于2010年11月举办了第12届俄克拉荷马州研究日。我们还为俄克拉何马州神经科学中心于2010年秋季在俄克拉何马州立大学举办的“小型医学院”研讨会提供了部分支持。这项活动为学生提供了一个机会，坐在一个典型的医学生的座位上，扩大和挑战他们对大脑的知识。这门课程结合了基本的解剖学、生理学和临床情况，以临床-翻译科学的方法更好地了解大脑的功能和神经疾病。最后，我们还为女性科学研讨会提供了部分资金，该研讨会由OK-EPSCoR项目领导，但由许多不同的项目赞助，包括OK-INBRE。还继续为社区学院制定战略计划提供资金。在这一资助期间，美国印第安人学生也继续前往SACNAS和AISES会议，展示他们由OK-INBRE资助的研究。这些有才华的美国印第安人学生是根据他们的学业表现、实验室技能表现以及他们未来在生物医学研究领域的职业目标来挑选的。
