BCM-TSU CURED Cancer Research Education Program (C-REP)

治愈的C-Rep摘要/摘要 贝勒医学院(BCM)/DAN的合作癌症研究教育项目(C-REP) L邓肯综合癌症中心与德克萨斯南方大学P20协作组 癌症研究、教育和差异联盟(CREED)项目将培训20名代表不足的TSU 少数族裔学生在癌症研究、尖端技术和职业道路方面。20人的队列治愈了 学者们将参加为期8周的有指导的癌症研究体验，其中整合了BCM和TSU 每年夏天的基础设施，随后是为期一年的文化契合的外展教育活动，将 提高对癌症研究、概念、流程和职业的认识、知识和理解 研究/癌症健康差距。我们建议的治愈C-Rep的目标是促进新的和有效的 吸引URM学生进入生物医学研究和职业道路的场所，特别是在癌症方面，并 促进以癌症差异和社区参与为重点的全面外展教育， 使综合性癌症中心和ISUPS的学生、教职员工以及 社区。我们确信，拟议的治愈C-rep将提高癌症研究教育能力 在台大，促进癌症研究队伍的多样性，提高BCM/DLDCCC的有效性 开发和维持专注于癌症健康差异的研究计划，同时增加 进行癌症健康差异研究的调查人员。

CURED C-REP Summary/Abstract The Collaborative Cancer Research Education Program (C-REP) of the Baylor College of Medicine (BCM)/ Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center (DLDCCC) and Texas Southern University (TSU) P20 Collaborative Union for Cancer Research, Education and Disparities (CURED) project will train 20 TSU underrepresented minority students in cancer research, cutting edge technologies, and career pathway. The cohort of 20 CURED scholars will participate in an 8-weeks mentored cancer research experience that integrates BCM and TSU infrastructures every summer followed by year-long culturally congruent outreach education activities that will increase the awareness, knowledge, and understanding of research, concepts, processes, and careers in cancer research/cancer health disparities. The goal of our proposed CURED C-REP is to promote novel and effective venues to attract URM students into biomedical research and career pathways, specifically in cancer, and to promote comprehensive outreach education focused on cancer disparities and community engagement that will benefit the students, faculty, and staff at both comprehensive cancer centers and ISUPSs as well as the community. We are certain that the proposed CURED C-REP will enhance cancer research education capacity at TSU, promote the diversity of the cancer research workforce, improve BCM/DLDCCC’s effectiveness of developing and sustaining research programs focused on cancer health disparities while increasing the number of investigators conducting cancer health disparities research.
