项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Cancer has been a major focus of biomedical research since the war on cancer began with the National Cancer Act of 1971. Despite this focus, nearly 8 million people die of cancer each year, worldwide. To help ensure that the nations’ biomedical, clinical, and behavioral cancer research workforce remains strong, we propose the development of a Cancer-focused Summer Undergraduate Research (CanSUR) Program, to recruit highly motivated undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds and foster their excitement for a career in cancer research. The CanSUR program will support 32 undergraduate scholars each year, recruited from regional and national colleges/universities for a 10-week period, to participate in a cancer research experience with members of the Case Comprehensive Cancer Center (Case CCC). Key objectives of the CanSUR Program are to: (1) provide each scholar with a summer cancer research experience in a Case CCC members lab; (2) foster an understanding of biomedical, cancer research career opportunities and (3) providing scientific enrichment and professional skills curriculum to help prepare them for the next step in a cancer research focused career. Four major components have been developed to meet these objectives, including an Intensive Week 1 Cancer Immersion Workshop, a series of interactive cancer research lectures on the fundamentals of cancer biology, current cancer therapies, cancer research techniques, cancer career paths and innovative 3-dimensional cancer education modules (called the HoloLens). We propose a novel 2- tier mentorship structure that includes both the primary mentor (lab leader), and a junior mentor, which will be the person in charge of the day-to-day training of the CanSUR scholar within the research environment. Beyond their individual research experience, we have developed a series of Scientific Enrichment components which address important issues in cancer research, such as developing professional habits, effective communication strategies, and an appreciation of how cancer impacts individuals and their families (using talks by patient advocates). Numerous cancer-focused career paths will be introduced, and guidance about how to prepare for the next step of a specific career path will be provided by graduate and medical school admissions directors, professionals who have achieved their cancer-related career goals, and current trainees. Given the importance of our objectives, we have been pledged significant institutional support and have 82 faculty and institutional leaders who focus on cancer education prepared to recruit and train outstanding undergraduates in this summer program. As such, we are well-positioned to convert highly-motivated undergraduates into the nation’s next cancer research workforce.

项目概要自从美国国家癌症研究所开始对抗癌症以来，癌症一直是生物医学研究的一个主要焦点。 1971 年《癌症法案》。尽管如此，全世界每年仍有近 800 万人死于癌症。帮助确保国家的生物医学、临床和行为癌症研究队伍保持强大，我们提议制定以癌症为重点的暑期本科生研究（CanSUR）计划，招收来自不同背景、积极性高的本科生，培养他们对大学的热情从事癌症研究的职业。 CanSUR 项目每年将支持 32 名本科生学者，招募来自地区和国家学院/大学为期 10 周的癌症研究与凯斯综合癌症中心 (Case CCC) 成员合作的经验。主要目标 CanSUR 计划旨在： (1) 为每位学者提供案例 CCC 的夏季癌症研究经验成员实验室； (2) 促进对生物医学、癌症研究职业机会的了解以及 (3) 提供科学丰富和专业技能课程，帮助他们为下一步的发展做好准备癌症研究重点职业。为了实现这些目标，开发了四个主要组件，包括第一周强化癌症沉浸研讨会、一系列互动癌症研究讲座癌症生物学基础、当前癌症疗法、癌症研究技术、癌症职业路径和创新的 3 维癌症教育模块（称为 HoloLens）。我们提出了小说 2- 层级导师结构，包括初级导师（实验室领导）和初级导师，这将是负责 CanSUR 学者在研究环境中的日常培训。除了他们的个人研究经验之外，我们还开发了一系列科学浓缩组件解决癌症研究中的重要问题，例如培养专业习惯、有效的沟通策略，以及了解癌症如何影响个人及其家庭（使用谈话由患者倡导者）。将介绍许多以癌症为重点的职业道路，并提供有关如何研究生和医学院招生将提供为特定职业道路的下一步做好准备董事、已实现癌症相关职业目标的专业人士以及当前的学员。鉴于我们的目标非常重要，我们已获得重要的机构支持，并拥有 82 名教职员工和专注于癌症教育的机构领导者准备招募和培养优秀本科生这个暑期计划。因此，我们处于有利地位，可以将积极主动的本科生转变为国家下一代癌症研究人员。
