DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) Research Internships for Student Engagement in Environmental Health or RISE is a new R25 being submitted to the NIH Summer Research Experience Program. The central goal/aim of this program for short-term educational experiences for research is to connect and engage a diversity of undergraduate students with investigators involved in environmental health research at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of public Health (JHBSPH). This research could range from studies at the molecular level up to population-based studies, including aspects of the social and built environments. Secondary goals include: 1) increasing the awareness of these students of the opportunities for research careers in the field of environmental health/public health; 2) increasing the number of students aware of these career opportunities by accepting students from a diverse spectrum of colleges and universities nationwide; and, 3) increasing the number of students that apply to graduate programs relevant to environmental health. An added goal would be that they would decide to enroll in programs offered at Johns Hopkins. RISE is designed as a 10-week summer research internship program for undergraduate students. While it is based in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences, the interns participate in all of the activities of the Diversity Summer Internship Program (DSIP) at JHBSPH. The majority of student's time (90%) will be spent in the laboratory interacting with faculty scientists, graduate students/postdoctoral fellows and technicians. For two hours a week the students attend the public health seminar, which includes scientific presentations by environmental health science faculty, as well as career planning activities. There is also a weekly environmental health /seminar journal club. The purpose of this weekly environmental health science seminar/journal club is to expose the interns to research in environmental health. In addition to the seminar and journal club, there are visits to core facility laboratories. At the end of the program, DSIP holds a final session at the Bloomberg School of Public Health where all summer interns at JHBSPH present a poster describing the research they have done during the summer. In addition, all interns at JHBSPH present their posters at a combined Johns Hopkins summer intern poster session which is held at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Both interns and their mentors fill out a program evaluation survey.

描述（由申请人提供） 学生参与环境健康研究实习或 RISE 是一项新的 R25，正在提交给 NIH 夏季研究体验计划。该短期研究教育体验项目的中心目标是连接约翰·霍普金斯大学彭博公共卫生学院 (JHBSPH) 的各类本科生与参与环境健康研究的研究人员并让他们参与其中。这项研究的范围可以从分子水平的研究到基于人群的研究，包括社会和建筑环境的各个方面。 次要目标包括：1）提高这些学生对环境健康/公共卫生领域研究职业机会的认识； 2) 通过接受来自全国各学院和大学的学生，增加了解这些职业机会的学生数量； 3) 增加申请环境健康相关研究生课程的学生数量。 另一个目标是他们决定参加约翰·霍普金斯大学提供的课程。 RISE是为本科生设计的为期10周的暑期研究实习项目。虽然实习生位于环境健康科学系，但实习生会参加 JHBSPH 多元化暑期实习计划 (DSIP) 的所有活动。学生的大部分时间（90%）将花在实验室与教师科学家、研究生/博士后研究员和技术人员互动。学生们每周参加两个小时的公共卫生研讨会，其中包括环境健康科学教师的科学演讲以及职业规划活动。还有每周一次的环境健康/研讨会期刊俱乐部。每周一次的环境健康科学研讨会/期刊俱乐部的目的是让实习生接触环境健康方面的研究。除了研讨会和期刊俱乐部之外，还可以参观核心设施实验室。在 项目结束时，DSIP 在彭博公共卫生学院举行最后一次会议，JHBSPH 的所有暑期实习生都会展示一张海报，描述他们在夏季所做的研究。此外，JHBSPH 的所有实习生都会在约翰·霍普金斯大学医学院举办的约翰·霍普金斯大学暑期实习生海报会议上展示他们的海报。实习生和他们的导师都填写了项目评估调查。
