DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Through the NIDDK Short-Term Education Program for Underrepresented Persons (STEP-UP), Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science (CDU) proposes to continue and further enhance, over the 5-year renewal period, its National High School Student Summer Research Apprentice Program. The main goal of this program is to increase the number of underrepresented minority and disadvantaged students "in the pipeline" who are committed to a career in biomedical, clinical, behavioral, or social science research in the NIDDK mission areas, including diabetes, endocrinology, metabolism, nutrition, obesity, and diseases of the digestive, urologic, kidney, and hematologic systems. Utilizing effective recruitment, retention, and education and training strategies, CDU STEP-UP is contributing to the much-needed diversification of the biomedical and health care workforce by training research scientists who are culturally competent and responsive to the multiple and complex health-related needs of underserved minority and socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. During the renewal period, the program will continue to provide an in-depth, mentored health sciences immersion experience each summer to 25 promising high school students from racial/ethnic groups underrepresented in biomedical and behavioral research, and/or from disadvantaged backgrounds who would otherwise likely not have access to a career path in science. This education and training experience encompasses exposure to critical methodologies and principles of biomedical research in the NIDDK mission areas and in disease areas identified by Healthy People 2010 as disproportionately prevalent among underrepresented minority communities. The CDU program includes an introductory web-based training curriculum in the Responsible Conduct of Research, an informal mentor-led laboratory and research orientation, opportunities for attendance at various research forums, specialized student-specific research assignments and activities, and the annual NIH/NIDDK student research symposium where students present their research findings to their peers. The specific aims of the CDU National High School Student Summer Research Apprentice Program are to (1) provide a rewarding 10-week summer research experience to 25 high school students annually, which includes education in research principles, conduct, evaluation, and presentation; (2) provide intensive mentoring to each student by active research faculty; (3) fully participate in the national STEP-UP forum at NIH/NIDDK, where the program students make oral and/or poster presentations to peers and established researchers using the standard presentation format of national scientific meetings; and (4) evaluate the impact of this NIH/NIDDK-CDU program.

描述（由申请人提供）：通过NIDDK短期教育计划的代表性不足的人（步），查尔斯R。德鲁医学和科学大学（CDU）建议在5年的更新期内继续并进一步加强其全国高中生暑期研究学徒计划。该计划的主要目标是增加代表性不足的少数民族和弱势学生的数量“在管道中”谁是致力于在NIDDK使命领域的生物医学，临床，行为或社会科学研究的职业生涯，包括糖尿病，内分泌，代谢，营养，肥胖症，以及消化系统，泌尿系统，肾脏和血液系统的疾病。利用有效的招聘，保留，教育和培训策略，CDU STEP-UP正在通过培训研究科学家来促进急需的生物医学和卫生保健劳动力的多样化，这些科学家在文化上有能力并能应对服务不足的少数民族和社会经济弱势群体的多重和复杂的健康相关需求。在更新期间，该计划将继续提供深入的，指导健康科学沉浸式体验，每年夏天到25个有前途的高中生从种族/民族群体在生物医学和行为研究中的代表性不足，和/或从弱势背景谁否则可能无法获得科学的职业道路。这种教育和培训经验包括接触到NIDDK使命领域和2010年健康人确定的疾病领域的生物医学研究的关键方法和原则，这些领域在代表性不足的少数民族社区中不成比例地普遍存在。CDU计划包括一个介绍性的基于网络的培训课程，在负责任的研究行为，一个非正式的导师领导的实验室和研究方向，参加各种研究论坛的机会，专门的学生特定的研究任务和活动，以及每年的NIH/NIDDK学生研究研讨会，学生向他们的同龄人展示他们的研究成果。CDU国家高中学生暑期研究学徒计划的具体目标是：（1）每年为25名高中生提供为期10周的暑期研究经验，其中包括研究原则，行为，评估和演示的教育;（2）由活跃的研究教师为每个学生提供密集的指导;（3）充分利用学生的研究经验，并为他们提供研究指导。 参加在NIH/NIDDK，在那里该计划的学生作出口头和/或海报介绍给同行和建立研究人员使用国家科学会议的标准演示格式的国家STEP-UP论坛;和（4）评估这个NIH/NIDDK-CDU计划的影响。
