DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this Short-Term Research Education Program is to increase the participation of underrepresented individuals from diverse backgrounds in research in the areas of cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic, and other related health disorders. We will accomplish this by providing an intensive summer research experience for qualified undergraduate students which will aid their successful entry into biomedical graduate, medical, dental, or public health related programs. This renewal proposal is designed to replace our successful current R25 Minority Summer Research Program (R25HL088742) which is in its last year, but strengthened significantly to emphasize issues of disparity. For example, summer undergraduate students will attend weekly seminars devoted to issues of disparity, visit clinics (diabetes, hypertension, etc.) that are of high interest in minoity health care, be paired with a minority Vanderbilt graduate student, and meet one on one with minority physicians.

描述（由申请人提供）：这个短期研究教育项目的目标是增加来自不同背景的未被充分代表的个人在心血管、肺部、血液和其他相关健康疾病领域的研究参与。我们将通过为合格的本科生提供密集的夏季研究经验来实现这一目标，这将有助于他们成功进入生物医学研究生，医学，牙科或公共卫生相关课程。这份更新提案旨在取代我们目前成功的R25少数民族夏季研究计划（R25HL088742），该计划已进入最后一年，但为了强调差距问题，该计划得到了显著加强。例如，暑期本科生将参加每周关于差异问题的研讨会，参观对少数族裔医疗保健非常感兴趣的诊所（糖尿病、高血压等），与范德比尔特大学的一名少数族裔研究生配对，并与少数族裔医生一对一会面。（摘要结束）
