项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this summer program is to introduce highly qualified undergraduates from diverse and underrepresented minority backgrounds to the concept of scientific research, the principles of scientific experimentation, the proper methods of data analysis, the interpretation, presentation, and translational applications of research results and to clinicians who practice at academic medical centers. Each student will work in the laboratory of a faculty mentor who has a proven track record in the mentoring of students and who has an actively funded biomedical research program focusing on cardiovascular, pulmonary or sleep medicine to accomplish this goal. In addition, all students will learn about careers in academic medical centers (AMCs) by shadowing clinician-investigators both in an office setting, as well as on in-patient rounds. At the end of the first summer in the program, the students will write an abstract and participate in both a local and national poster presentation of their research results. After the second summer in the program, students will give a 5-7 minute "chalk-talk" to other students in the training program, and will again present their research locally and nationally. The students will also receive instruction in essay writing, MCAT preparation, and critical career skills. The ultimate goal of the program is to provide undergraduate students with an understanding and appreciation of the biomedical research process so as to encourage them to pursue careers studying patients and their diseases after further postgraduate training in graduate and medical education.

描述（由申请人提供）：本夏季计划的目标是引入高素质的本科生，从多样化和代表性不足的少数族裔背景来介绍科学研究的概念，科学实验的原理，适当的方法数据分析，研究结果的解释，演示和翻译应用以及在学术医疗中心实践的临床医生。每个学生将在一位教师导师的实验室工作，他在指导学生方面拥有良好的记录，并拥有一项积极资助的生物医学研究计划，重点是心血管，肺或睡眠医学，以实现这一目标。此外，所有学生都将通过在办公室环境以及住院回合中遮蔽临床医生评估者，从而了解学术医疗中心（AMC）的职业。在该计划的第一个夏天结束时，学生将撰写摘要，并参与本地和国家海报的演示文稿他们的研究结果。在该计划的第二个夏天之后，学生将为培训计划中的其他学生提供5-7分钟的“粉笔谈话”，并将再次在本地和全国范围内介绍他们的研究。学生还将获得论文写作，MCAT准备和关键职业技能的指导。该计划的最终目标是向本科生提供对生物医学研究过程的了解和欣赏，以鼓励他们在进行研究生和医学教育的进一步研究生培训后从事研究患者及其疾病的职业。（抽象的结尾）
