DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Southeastern Medical Scientist Symposium (SEMSS) was established in 2010 by students from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), Emory University, and Vanderbilt University Medical Scientist Training Programs (MSTPs). The three programs have co-hosted the symposium for three years with the location rotating among Birmingham (2010), Atlanta (2011), and Nashville (2012). The objective of the symposium is to encourage a collaborative and interdisciplinary educational environment within the Southeast region of the United States. This fully student-organized symposium seeks to foster connections between the MD/PhD students at multiple institutions across the Southeast, exposing students to trends, challenges, and opportunities inherent in careers of academic physicians. The program of each SEMSS has included three keynote speaker presentations, multiple topic-specific breakout sessions, MSTP student research poster sessions, and social events. The breakout sessions are divided into sessions of interest to MD/PhD students and undergraduates. The meetings have spanned two days, with content starting in the early afternoon on a Saturday and ending in the early afternoon on Sunday. The target audience for the SEMSS is MD/PhD students in training programs in the southeast and MD students and undergraduate students at southeastern institutions who have an interest in future careers as physician-scientists. An additional purpose of this symposium is to expose undergraduate students to physician-scientist trainees and faculty in order to foster excitement about careers in academic medicine and increase the pipeline of future physician-scientists. We think that this additional focus on undergraduate students from the region is critical to our purpose of enhancing the pipeline of students from backgrounds underrepresented in medicine (URIM), as according to US News and World Report, nine of the top twenty historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) are located in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, or Louisiana.

描述（由申请人提供）：来自阿拉巴马大学伯明翰大学（UAB），埃默里大学和范德比尔特大学医学科学家培训计划（MSTPS）的学生于2010年成立了东南医学科学家研讨会（SEMS）。这三个节目已与伯明翰（2010），亚特兰大（2011）和纳什维尔（2012）之间的位置共同主持了三年的研讨会。研讨会的目的是鼓励美国东南部地区的协作和跨学科的教育环境。这个完全由学生组织的研讨会旨在建立东南部多个机构的MD/PHD学生之间的联系，使学生面临学术医生职业固有的趋势，挑战和机遇。每个SEMS的计划包括三个主题演讲者演示，多个特定于主题的突破性会议，MSTP学生研究海报会议和社交活动。分组会议分为MD/博士学位学生和本科生感兴趣的会议。会议已经跨越了两天，内容从星期六的下午开始，并于周日下午结束。 SEMS的目标受众是东南部培训课程的医学博士/博士生，以及东南机构的MD学生和本科生，他们对医师科学家的未来职业感兴趣。该研讨会的另一个目的是将本科生暴露于医师科学家学员和教师，以促进人们对职业的兴奋 学术医学并增加未来医师科学家的管道。我们认为，对来自该地区的本科生的这种额外关注对于我们的目的至关重要，这对于我们的目的是加强来自医学的背景的学生（URIM）（URIM），如美国新闻和世界报道，九个历史悠久的黑人学院（HBCUS）中有九个位于阿拉巴马州，乔治亚，田纳西州，密西西比州，或LOUISISPI，或LOUISISPI。
