OKLAHOMA CITY COMMUNITY COLLEGE OUTREACH

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 俄克拉荷马州城市社区学院（OCCC）与雷德兰兹学院、科曼奇民族学院和塔尔萨社区学院一起，沿着，形成了INBRE项目的外展核心，以促进社区学院新生和新生在形成科学课程中取得成功。 社区大学教育的学生中有很大比例的学生参加了入门科学课程，来自代表性不足的群体的学生更有可能在社区大学开始。 社区学院的学生通过暑期研究实习，接触教师和学生的研究报告以及实地考察研究设施直接与生物医学研究项目和职业道路联系在一起。 学生间接受益于社区学院科学教师的更新，通过暑期实习，研讨会和会议，以及从更紧密的联系，以研究俄克拉荷马州的大学。 拨款提供设备，以支持和加强教学实验室实验。 接受暑期实习的社区学院学生在实习前参加一个特殊的课程，为他们的实验室工作做准备：生命科学实验室技术介绍。 我们称之为实验室靴子营，并教实验室安全，科学诚信，计算和解决方案，使媒体，无菌技术，保持实验室笔记本，使用天平，离心机，微量移液器，pH计，流速计，电泳设备，凝胶文档成像，色谱，BLAST搜索等基础知识。

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. Oklahoma City Community College (OCCC), along with Redlands College, Comanche Nation College, and Tulsa Community College forms an outreach core in the INBRE project in order to promote student success among freshmen and sophomores in formative science courses at community colleges. Community colleges educate very large percentages of students enrolled in introductory science courses and students from underrepresented groups are more likely to start at a community college. Community college students are linked to biomedical research programs and career paths directly through summer research internships, exposure to research presentations by faculty and students, and field trips to research facilities. Indirectly students benefit from the updating of community college science faculty through summer externships, workshops, and conferences as well as from closer ties to the research universities of Oklahoma. The grant provides equipment to support and enhance instructional laboratory experimentation. Community college students accepted for the summer internship attend a special course prior to the internship to prepare them for laboratory work: Introduction to Life Sciences Laboratory Techniques. We call it the Lab Boot Camp and teach basics of lab safety, scientific integrity, calculating and making solutions, making media, aseptic technique, keeping a laboratory notebook, use of balances, centrifuges, micropipettors, pH meters, spectrophotometers, electrophoresis equipment, gel documentation imaging, chromatography, BLAST searches, and more.
