Substantive research training early during the course of medical school education is critical to address the declining number of physicians choosing research careers. The proposed University of Illinois Short-Term Research Training Program (SRTP) will provide first year medical students (12 slots in Year 1, 15 in Year 2-5) with a 10-week mentored research experience in the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) mission areas including, kidney, urologic and hematologic diseases; digestive disease and nutrition; and diabetes, endocrinology and metabolic disease. The University of Illinois College of Medicine (UI COM) is a large public medical school with one of the most diverse student populations in the country in terms of enrolled African American and Latino students. The program will draw from first year medical students at UI COM, as well as other medical schools in the Chicago metropolitan area and Midwest. We have assembled an outstanding team of mentors in NIDDK mission areas with expertise in basic/mechanistic, clinical/translational, and behavioral/community-based research. In addition to mentored research, students will participate in an interactive structured curriculum focused on research methodology, responsible conduct of research, and career development. To learn presentation skills and principles of rigor and reproducibility, students will co- lead, with a research mentor, journal clubs and works-in-progress sessions. Additional novel aspects of the program include use of peer-to-peer mentoring and ongoing exposure to successful early career physician- scientists. At the end of the summer, students will present at a SRTP Research Symposium and the COM Research Day. After the program is completed, the program will utilize multiple strategies to facilitate continued involvement in research activities, including encouraging students to apply to the James Scholar Program, a program that provides the infrastructure to support research during the second to fourth years of medical school. In addition, the program will strive to create a sense of community among SRTP cohorts by hosting quarterly “Ideas on Tap” (research/social networking events at which students present ongoing research), and will maintain connections with trainees using the program website, newsletters, an SRTP Slack communication channel, and social media. An Executive Committee will oversee implementation of the program, recruitment/selection, program evaluation, and tracking of short- and long-term outcomes. Strengths of the program include the experienced co-Directors, committed and well-funded program mentors with broad expertise across NIDDK mission areas, an innovative structured curriculum, a robust recruitment plan to enhance diversity, strong institutional support, and a thoughtfully conceived plan to foster continued research involvement after program completion. Consequently, the proposed SRTP will provide medical students with a substantive research experience, facilitating the achievement of the long-term objective of increasing the pipeline and diversity of physicians entering the research workforce in NIDDK mission areas.

在医学院教育过程中早期的实质性研究培训对于解决该培训至关重要 选择研究事业的医师人数减少。拟议的伊利诺伊大学短期 研究培训计划（SRTP）将提供一年级的医学生（第1年的12个插槽，第2-5年15个） 在美国国家糖尿病研究所和消化研究所和Kidsney中拥有10周的指导研究经验 疾病（NIDDK）任务领域，包括肾脏，泌尿科和血液学疾病；消化疾病和 营养;和糖尿病，内分泌学和代谢疾病。伊利诺伊大学医学院（UI） com）是一所大型公立医学院 招收的非裔美国人和拉丁裔学生。该计划将从UI的一年级医学生借鉴 COM，以及芝加哥都会区和中西部的其他医学院。我们已经组装了 NIDDK任务领域的杰出导师团队具有基本/机械，临床/翻译方面的专业知识， 和基于行为/社区的研究。除了修改研究外，学生还将参加 互动结构化课程的重点是研究方法，负责任的研究和 职业发展。为了学习陈述技巧和严格和繁殖的原则，学生将共同 主持研究精神，期刊俱乐部和正在进行的工作。其他新颖方面 计划包括使用点对点的心理和持续接触成功的早期职业医生 - 科学家。夏季结束时，学生将参加SRTP研究研讨会和COM 研究日。计划完成后，该计划将利用多种策略来促进继续 参与研究活动，包括鼓励学生申请James Scholar计划， 提供基础设施以支持研究的计划 学校。此外，该计划将努力通过托管SRTP队列中的社区感 季度“想法”（研究/社交网络活动，学生都在进行研究）， 将使用计划网站，新闻通讯，SRTP Slack Communication与培训保持联系 渠道和社交媒体。执行委员会将监督该计划的实施， 招聘/选择，计划评估以及短期和长期结果的跟踪。优势 计划包括经验丰富的联合导演，忠诚和资金充足的计划导师 NIDDK Mission领域的专家，一项创新的结构化课程，是一项强大的招聘计划 提高多样性，强大的机构支持以及构思深思熟虑的计划，以促进持续研究 计划完成后参与。因此，拟议的SRTP将为医学生提供 实质性研究经验，支持实现长期目标的实现 进入NIDDK任务领域的研究人员的医生的管道和多样性。
