OHSU Summer Internship in Biomedical Informatics for College Undergraduates

描述(由申请人提供)： 俄勒冈健康与科学大学(OHSU)医学信息学与临床流行病学系(DMICE)正在寻求夏季研究体验计划(R25)拨款，以继续为大学生提供其在生物医学信息学方面非常成功的夏季研究经验。OHSU DMICE暑期本科生研究计划从2007年开始，为大学生提供带薪实习机会，在暑期与教职员工就当前的研究项目进行为期10-12周的密集工作，为期四年。该计划在2009-2010年间利用《美国复苏和再投资法案》的资金进行了扩展，我们希望在接下来的五年里继续扩大该计划。 该计划的主要目标是通过参与生物医学信息学教师的研究项目，向学生介绍OHSU生物医学信息学课程的职业和可能的研究生学习。在接下来的五年大学本科生生物医学信息学暑期实习中，我们将建立我们在该项目四年经验后开发的相同方法。虽然目前该计划相对成熟，但我们将征求学生和教职员工的反馈意见，以做出修改以改进该计划。暑期学生活动将由以下部分组成 1.在教职员工的直接指导下，进行为期一个夏天的研究项目，为期10-12周 2.参加每周一次的会议，以更多地了解生物医学信息学领域的总体情况，以及他们的同行和导师的项目 3.参加OHSU为全校实习生提供的暑期实习活动 4.在夏末举行研讨会，了解他们的成果的公开展示，并在未来的展示中随身携带 5.参与撰写他们的结果，并最终出版

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Department of Medical Informatics & Clinical Epidemiology (DMICE) of Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) is seeking a Summer Research Experience Program (R25) grant to continue its highly successful summer research experiences in biomedical informatics for college students. The OHSU DMICE Summer Undergraduate Research Program has provided paid internship opportunities for college students to work intensively with faculty on current research projects for 10-12 weeks during the summer for four years, starting in 2007. The program was expanded in 2009-2010 with American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds, and we hope to continue the expanded program for the next five years. The main goal of the program has been to introduce students to careers and possible pursuit of graduate study in the OHSU Biomedical Informatics Program through participation in research projects if biomedical informatics faculty. For the next five years of the Summer Internship in Biomedical Informatics for College Undergraduates, we will build the same approach that we have developed after four years of experience with the program. While the program is relatively mature at this point, we will seek feedback from the students and faculty to make changes to improve the program. Student activities for the summer will consist of the following components 1. Working on a summer-long research project under direct faculty mentorship for 10-12 weeks 2. Participation in a weekly conference to learn more about the field of biomedical informatics generally, the projects of their peers and their mentors 3. Taking part in summer internship activities offered by OHSU to all interns on campus 4. A symposium at the end of the summer to learn public presentation of their results and have a presentation they can take with them for future presentations 5. Participate in writing up their results, leading to publication
