PROJECT SUMMARY TITLE: USC/CHLA Summer Oncology Research Fellowship (SORF) Program for medical students Physician-scientists working in cancer research provide unique insights that are critical for continued advances in cancer therapy. There is a dire shortage of physician-scientists and their numbers continue to decline. The Summer Oncology Research Fellowship (SORF) Program at Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California (USC) and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) pro- vides a unique oncology research experience by immersing outstanding medical students of diverse back- grounds from across the United States in cancer research through mentored hands-on research projects and a cutting edge interactive educational curriculum. The goal is to encourage these motivated students to pursue a medical career that actively involves cancer research. This program, by increasing the number and diversity of students entering the physician-scientist education pipeline, is designed to address the severe shortage of such professionals, a shortage that stifles advances in pediatric and adult oncology. This highly competitive SORF Program has been continuously active for over 40 years, with demand steadily increasing: 303 students (top 5-20% of applicants) completed the Program since 2001. Of SORF graduates in the 10 years between 2001-2010, 18% are in oncological specialties and 11% are involved in research, compar- ing favorably with overall USA medical school graduates (1.98% in oncology, 0.13% in research; AAMC data). Thus, our Summer Oncology Research Fellowship Program has great potential to enhance the ‘supply’ of stu- dents who enter the pipeline leading to biomedical careers that will involve active cancer research. This Multiple-PI R25 proposal seeks support for the SORF Program to bring it to its next level by providing students with a better understanding of how science is conducted in the 21st century and interesting them in pursuing careers that involve cutting edge research related to oncology. Program activities include hands-on individual mentored research projects in adult and pediatric oncology, interactive cancer research-focused edu- cational activities, professional development in scientific communication, career development activities towards oncology research, and exposure to other trainees, scientists, physicians, patients and cancer survivors. Other goals of the program are to increase diversity of participants, provide instruction on responsible conduct of re- search, and institute short and long term follow-up to obtain feedback and outcomes data on the Program. Thus, by increasing the ‘inflow’ at the beginning of the pipeline and maintaining long-term contact with participants we anticipate to strengthen the oncology research workforce.

项目摘要 标题：USC/CHLA夏季肿瘤学研究奖学金（SORF）计划医学生 从事癌症研究的医生-科学家提供了对持续进步至关重要的独特见解 在癌症治疗中。医学科学家严重短缺，他们的人数继续下降。的 夏季肿瘤学研究奖学金（SORF）计划在诺里斯综合癌症中心，凯克 南加州大学医学院（USC）和洛杉矶儿童医院（CHLA） 通过沉浸在不同背景的优秀医学生中， 来自美国各地的癌症研究，通过指导动手研究项目和 尖端的互动教育课程。我们的目标是鼓励这些积极的学生追求一个 积极参与癌症研究的医学职业。该计划通过增加数量和多样性， 学生进入医生科学家教育管道，旨在解决这种严重短缺， 专业人员的短缺扼杀了儿科和成人肿瘤学的进步。 这一极具竞争力的SORF计划已经持续活跃了40多年，需求稳定 增加：自2001年以来，303名学生（申请人中前5-20%）完成了该方案。毕业于 2001-2010年的10年中，18%的人从事肿瘤学专业，11%的人从事研究，相比之下， 与美国医学院毕业生总体情况一致（肿瘤学1.98%，研究0.13%; AAMC数据）。 因此，我们的夏季肿瘤学研究奖学金计划有很大的潜力，以提高'供应'的研究， 进入生物医学职业管道的凹痕，其中将涉及积极的癌症研究。 本多PI R25提案寻求对SORF计划的支持，通过提供以下服务将其提升到一个新的水平： 学生更好地了解科学是如何在21世纪世纪进行，并感兴趣，他们在 从事与肿瘤学相关的前沿研究。计划活动包括实践 成人和儿科肿瘤学的个人指导研究项目，以交互式癌症研究为重点的教育， 科学交流方面的职业发展活动， 肿瘤学研究，并接触其他学员、科学家、医生、患者和癌症幸存者。其他 该计划的目标是增加参与者的多样性，提供关于重新负责行为的指导， 搜索，并建立短期和长期的后续行动，以获得反馈和成果数据的计划。因此，在本发明中， 通过增加管道开始时的“流入”并与参与者保持长期联系， 预计将加强肿瘤学研究队伍。
