DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is to establish at UT Southwestern Medical Center an institutional National Research Service Award that will enhance short-term training opportunities for medical students in basic and clinical biomedical research specifically in areas of interest to the NHLBI. Medical student research at UT Southwestern Medical Center has a long and rich tradition. Since its inception in the late 1950's, these activities have encompassed a wide range of research opportunities that have been funded by state, private, and federal funds. Research activities that have been supported have included basic, clinical, and applied areas. This program has increased substantially in the past decade, commesurate with the emergence and development of facilities and faculty available on the UT Southwestern Medical Center campus. This application seeks to establish a training program that will focus on the exposure and development of medical students to formal training in clinical and basic research in areas supported by the NHLBI. Based on experiences derived from the existing summer research program at UT Southwestern, we envisage the establishment of a competitive program that would serve to provide opportunities to medical students at UT Southwestern Medical Center and throughout the United States. Building upon the experience that we have amassed in the identification and pairing of students and mentors, we anticipate that these experiences will further serve to further enrich the research background of students at UT Southwestern Medical Center and in other parts of the United States. In addition, we believe that this program will serve as a focal point to further enrich medical student research activities at UT Southwestern and participating institutions. Such activities will serve to heighten the awareness of additional opportunities that are available for the training of medical students (e.g. the Doris Duke Clinical Research Fellowships for Medical Students, Sarnoff Cardiovascular Research Fellowships) and to enhance the quality of students seeking training though the auspices of such programs.

描述（由申请人提供）： 此应用程序是在UT西南医学中心建立一个机构的国家研究服务奖，这将提高在基础和临床生物医学研究，特别是在感兴趣的NHLBI领域的医学生的短期培训机会。 UT西南医学中心的医学生研究有着悠久而丰富的传统。自20世纪50年代末成立以来，这些活动包括了由州、私人和联邦基金资助的广泛的研究机会。得到支持的研究活动包括基础、临床和应用领域。该计划在过去的十年中大幅增加，随着UT西南医学中心校园内设施和教师的出现和发展。 该申请旨在建立一个培训计划，重点关注医学生在NHLBI支持的临床和基础研究领域的正式培训。根据从UT西南现有的夏季研究计划中获得的经验，我们设想建立一个有竞争力的计划，为UT西南医学中心和整个美国的医学生提供机会。基于我们在识别和配对学生和导师方面积累的经验，我们预计这些经验将进一步丰富UT西南医学中心和美国其他地区学生的研究背景。此外，我们相信，该计划将作为一个焦点，以进一步丰富在UT西南和参与机构的医学生研究活动。这些活动将有助于提高人们对可用于医学生培训的其他机会的认识（例如，Doris杜克医学生临床研究奖学金、Sarnoff心血管研究奖学金），并通过这些方案提高寻求培训的学生的质量。(End摘要）
