项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We request funding for a five-year renewal of our very successful Cancer Research Experiences for Students (CaRES) program (grant 5R25 CA76023) that has been funded by NCI's R25E program since 1999. CaRES provides paid short summer cancer research internships for University of Alabama School of Medicine (UAB) medical students, UAB public health students, and other UAB graduate health professional students, all of whom are American citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. In its 15th year, CaRES has supported over 500 students to date. Typically first-year medical students and graduate students participate, but students who hold a letter of acceptance qualify for CaRES in the summer prior to enrolling in their degree program. CaRES projects have been conducted on the UAB campus under the guidance of UAB Comprehensive Cancer Center faculty members. If we are granted additional funding we will enhance CaRES in four ways. We will broaden student eligibility by recruiting health professional students from three Alabama universities (University of South Alabama, Auburn University, and Samford University) in addition to UAB; we will increase the number of opportunities for cancer research in genomics and translational research by basing some CaRES projects at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology in Huntsville, Alabama; we will tighten our student-preceptor research agreements by means of a mentoring contract; and we will increase the depth and breadth of instruction in career development and in the responsible conduct of research through an expanded seminar series and by affording students the opportunity to participate in other seminars, workshops, and courses. With these innovations we believe that CaRES will become nationally recognized as a premier R25E short- term cancer research training program. Further, we believe that our innovations will ignite collaborative cancer research and service activity in Alabama, a state characterized by low income, low education, and a large minority population that is medically under-served and at high risk for cancer and other chronic diseases.

描述(由申请人提供)：我们请求为我们非常成功的学生癌症研究经验(CARE)计划(CARE)的五年续订提供资金(5R25 CA76023)，该计划自1999年以来一直由NCI的R25E计划资助。CARE为阿拉巴马大学医学院(UAB)的医学院医学生、UAB公共卫生专业学生和其他UAB卫生专业研究生提供带薪的暑期癌症研究实习机会，这些学生都是美国公民或美国永久居民。到目前为止，CARE已经支持了500多名学生。通常情况下，一年级的医学生和研究生都会参加，但持有录取通知书的学生有资格在入学前的夏天接受护理。CARE项目在UAB综合癌症中心教职员工的指导下在UAB校园内进行。如果我们获得额外的资金，我们将从四个方面加强护理。除了UAB，我们将通过从三所阿拉巴马州大学(南阿拉巴马州大学、奥本大学和桑福德大学)招收卫生专业学生来扩大学生资格；我们将通过在阿拉巴马州亨茨维尔的哈德逊·阿尔法生物技术研究所建立一些CARE项目来增加在基因组学和翻译研究方面的癌症研究机会；我们将通过导师合同的方式收紧我们的学生-导师研究协议；我们将通过扩大研讨会系列并通过让学生有机会参加其他研讨会、工作坊和课程来增加职业发展指导和负责任地进行研究的深度和广度。有了这些创新，我们相信CARE将成为全国公认的主要R25E短期癌症研究培训计划。此外，我们相信，我们的创新将在阿拉巴马州激发合作的癌症研究和服务活动，该州的特点是低收入、低教育和大量少数族裔人口，医疗服务不足，癌症和其他慢性病的风险很高。
