PROJECT SUMMARY /ABSTRACT The Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) has a longstanding commitment to the training of medical students in academic medicine and has supported the Student Research Program in Academic Medicine (SRPAM) for 28 years. This application is a competitive renewal of the T35 training grant (Short-Term Training in Biomedical Sciences) awarded to IUSM in 2011 and that greatly contributed to the consolidation and expansion of the program. The purpose of the SPRAM is to provide a structured research environment that engages medical students' interest in biomedical research, creating opportunities for basic and translational research experience, and education in research ethics. The main objective of the program is to serve as a portal to train and recruit physician-scientists. Every year ~40 medical students with strong academic credentials are selected for the SPRAM from a pool of 80-100 applicants, and are paired with highly qualified faculty mentors for 12-week summer research internships with accompanying lecture series focused on research communication, ethics, translational research and career development. The current application seeks support to enroll 32 students/year in the SPRAM (including 8 additional positions) to conduct basic and translational research within the basic and clinical departments and centers at IUSM. The combined support of the T35, Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute, IU Simon Cancer Center and Center of Excellence in Molecular Hematology will allow the enrollment of a higher number of students from the pool of meritorious applicants. The program is designed to: a) increase student awareness to the value of doing biomedical research, challenging them to take on independent projects, and; b) strongly support students interested in careers in academic medicine by providing access to opportunities in the MD/PhD program, and assistance with research fellowship applications to HHMI and NIH. Trainees engage in mentored research experience in areas that reflect the school's strength and international reputation in hematopoiesis, immunity, pulmonary and cardiovascular biology, cancer, diabetes and medical informatics. The strengths of our program are: i) a cadre of >100 selected, successful mentors including physician-scientists, with extramural funding, outstanding training records and solid experience with short-term trainees; ii) an outstanding scientific environment with intense interdisciplinary spirit and access to cutting-edge technologies and excellent resources; iii) a supportive community providing students with opportunities for leadership and mentoring; iv) integration with the medical school curriculum, and; v) an unequivocal commitment from the IUSM leadership. The long term goal of the program is to increase the number of physician-scientists nationally by exposing students in their early years of medical education to hypothesis-driven research focused on the molecular and cellular basis of disease and their potential for clinical translation.

项目总结/摘要 医学的印第安纳州大学（IUSM）有一个长期的承诺，以医疗培训 学生在学术医学，并支持学生研究计划在学术医学 （28年前）此申请是T35培训补助金（短期培训）的竞争性更新 在生物医学科学）授予IUSM在2011年，并大大有助于巩固和 方案的扩展。SPRAM的目的是提供一个结构化的研究环境， 吸引医学生对生物医学研究的兴趣，为基础和转化创造机会。 研究经验和研究道德教育。该计划的主要目标是作为一个 培训和招募医学科学家的门户网站。每年~40名学术实力较强的医学生 从80-100名申请者中为SPRAM挑选证书，并与高素质的 为期12周的暑期研究实习的教师导师，伴随着系列讲座，重点是 研究交流、伦理、转化研究和职业发展。当前的申请寻求 支持招收32名学生/年在SPRAM（包括8个额外的职位）进行基本和 在IUSM的基础和临床部门和中心的转化研究。联合支持 T35，临床和转化科学研究所，IU西蒙癌症中心和卓越中心， 分子血液学将允许更多的学生从优秀的游泳池招生 申请者该计划旨在：a）提高学生对生物医学价值的认识 研究，挑战他们采取独立的项目，和; B）大力支持学生感兴趣的 通过提供获得MD/PhD课程的机会， 向HHMI和NIH申请研究奖学金。实习生在以下领域获得指导性研究经验 反映学校在造血，免疫，肺和免疫方面的实力和国际声誉的领域 心血管生物学、癌症、糖尿病和医学信息学。我们的计划的优势是：i）干部 100多名成功的导师，包括医生和科学家，获得校外资助， 培训记录和短期学员的丰富经验; ii）出色的科学环境， 强烈的跨学科精神和获得尖端技术和优秀的资源; iii）支持 社区为学生提供领导和指导的机会; iv）与医疗 学校课程，以及; v）来自IUSM领导层的明确承诺。的长期目标 该计划是通过让学生在他们的早年学习， 医学教育的假设驱动的研究集中在疾病的分子和细胞基础， 临床转化的潜力。
