Summer Undergraduate Alcohol Research Program

内布拉斯加大学医学中心 (UNMC) 内科 医学在支持暑期本科生研究方面有着悠久的历史。此外， 该部门还拥有大量专注于酒精研究的调查人员 及其体内和体外的影响。内政部的这两个特点 医学是我们更新提案的支柱，以支持我们的高度成功 夏季本科生酒精研究计划（SUARP）。本次活动的目标 续签申请应： 1) 为本科生提供为期十周的研究经历 继续为学生创造独特的丰富机会来首先学习- 负责进行研究并激发他们的兴趣 生物医学研究的职业。 2) 向参与暑期研究项目的本科生介绍 与酒精及其后果相关的研究的重要性和范围 健康、器官和细胞功能。 3）继续招收符合条件的本科少数民族和弱势学生 暑期本科生研究经验，以激发他们的潜力 生物医学研究的未来职业。 为了实现我们的目标，我们将继续利用现有资源 暑期本科生研究计划（SURP）。由十周组成 研究经验与 SURP 类似，SUARP 的不同之处在于包括研讨会 致力于酒精研究主题的系列，为其本科生开设的期刊俱乐部 学生，以及新构思的基于案例的学习计划，该计划将利用 技术和电子学习方法。我们制定了多项战略 让我们能够成功招募代表性不足的少数族裔和弱势群体 学生加入SUARP。我们将继续完善现有的短期和长期 学期评估流程，以提高学生的成果，包括增加 他们对生物医学研究职业的兴趣。

The University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) Department of Internal Medicine has a long history of supporting summer undergraduate research. In addition, the Department also has a critical mass of investigators with research foci on alcohol and its influence in vivo and in vitro. These two features of the Department of Internal Medicine form the backbone of our renewal proposal in support of our highly successful Summer Undergraduate Alcohol Research Program (SUARP). The objectives of this renewal application are to: 1) Provide a ten-week research experience for undergraduate students that continues to create unique enrichment opportunities for students to learn first- hand what is involved in performing research and to stimulate their interest in careers in biomedical research. 2) Introduce undergraduate students involved in a summer research program to the importance and spectrum of research related to alcohol and its consequences on health, organ and cellular function. 3) Continue to recruit qualified undergraduate minority and disadvantaged students to a summer undergraduate research experience to encourage their potential future careers in biomedical research. To achieve our objectives, we will continue to leverage resources from our existing Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP). Comprised of a ten-week research experience similar to SURP, the SUARP is distinct by including a seminar series devoted to topics in alcohol research, a journal club for its undergraduate students, and a newly conceived case-based learning initiative that will capitalize on technology and e-learning approaches. We have several strategies in place that have allowed us to successfully recruit underrepresented minority and disadvantaged students into the SUARP. We will continue to refine our existing short term and long term evaluation processes to enhance outcomes for the students including increasing their interests in careers in biomedical research.
