DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Research at an early stage of medical education is the best predictor of a future career in research. The College of Physicians & Surgeons of Columbia is especially strong in research focusing on the basic and applied features of diabetes, kidney and endocrinologic diseases. Investigation of the health issues dealing with the mandate of NIDDK requires preparations for the next generation of investigators and this application aims to introduce our medical students to research in these fields mentored by exceptional faculty with proven track record of excellence in research and funding. The curriculum at P &S has changed such that every student is now required to produce a scholarly effort and this proposal will support students performing research either during the summer months between the 1st and 2nd years or later. Students at P& S have traditionally been active in research and this application will provide them with a structured program that includes the research as well as a series of seminars covering topics in modern biomedical research. In addition they will be required to attend a series of lectures in the Responsible Conduct of Research. The Program Director will be assisted in managing the Program by an External and an Internal Advisory Committees. Applying students will be chosen by a Recruitment and Admission Committee and their progress in research will be followed by a Mentoring Committee. Finally, after they complete their research they will be advised by a Career Development committee that will aid them in making important career decisions. Recruitment of under-represented minorities, among mentors as well as students, is strongly supported by an ongoing commitment of the College and by targeted efforts of the Program.

描述（由申请人提供）：医学教育早期阶段的研究是未来研究职业的最佳预测。哥伦比亚内科医生和外科医生学院在糖尿病、肾脏和内分泌疾病的基础和应用特征方面的研究尤其强大。对涉及 NIDDK 任务的健康问题的调查需要为下一代研究人员做好准备，该应用程序旨在向我们的医学生介绍这些领域的研究，并由在研究和资助方面拥有卓越记录的杰出教师指导。 P&S 的课程已发生变化，现在每个学生都必须做出学术努力，该提案将支持学生在第一年和第二年之间或之后的夏季月份进行研究。 P&S 的学生传统上一直积极参与研究，该应用程序将为他们提供一个结构化的计划，其中包括研究以及一系列涵盖现代生物医学研究主题的研讨会。此外，他们还需要参加一系列有关“负责任的研究行为”的讲座。外部和内部咨询委员会将协助项目总监管理该项目。申请的学生将由招生和录取委员会挑选，他们的研究进展将由指导委员会跟踪。最后，在他们完成研究后，职业发展委员会将向他们提供建议，帮助他们做出重要的职业决定。在导师和学生中招募代表性不足的少数群体得到了学院的持续承诺和该计划的有针对性的努力的大力支持。
