Summary The overall objective of the R25 Research Education Program(REP) summer experience is to establish an approach for providing minority students attending USC with the support needed to increase diversity in the field of biomedical science and aging by providing mentorship and research training opportunities for young URM biomedical scientists with unique experiences and perspectives. To accomplish this objective, we will: I) use our already developed and validated innovative strategies to recruit 100 URMs to the different biomedical science disciplines and aging related research experiences at USC. We will attract these students by conducting seminars, workshops, and lectures at the USC campuses throughout the academic year. II) Organize a USC Biomedical Science Forum where 50 URM students from a pool of 100 URMs will be invited for a two-day orientation during the spring semester. These students will visit USC and its biomedical science programs while also obtaining information on the ten-week summer REP. III) Provide a 10-week summer educational mentoring and research opportunity at USC for ten REP students every year for five years. For the summer program, we will,1) match each REP participant with a mentor to initiate the development of an individual development plan(IDP), and organize a weekly mentoring activity, 2) organize professional development workshop training for URMs in aging research, 3) implement a weekly Science/Journal club meeting to discuss publications related to aging research, 4) organize workshop training in professional development to synergize REP students with USC training programs in professional development activities allowing networking with other young colleagues, and 5) provide scientific research for REP students to enhance their research career development in biomedical sciences and promote graduate school aspirations. Beyond the summer REP, we will provide research and mentoring opportunities to continue to synergize REP students with USC training programs. By providing academic support initiatives, including mentoring, professional development activities and training in biomedical science and aging related research opportunities, we will be able to increase diversity in the field of biomedical science and aging related research for young URM biomedical scientists. Continued "mentoring " of REP students will go on until they complete their baccalaureate degree in biomedical science and will even continue finally to their matriculation into graduate programs in biomedical sciences at USC. We expect that 70% of REP students in their senior years will have research experience, evident in publications (manuscripts and conference abstracts). The research experience will prepare them for graduate programs, while the publications will make them competitive for graduate school admission. We plan to increase awareness for at least 60% of URMs, freshman through senior years in different career opportunities in aging research.

摘要 R25研究教育计划(REP)暑期体验的总体目标是建立 向就读南加州大学的少数族裔学生提供增加实地多样性所需支持的方法 通过为年轻的URM提供导师和研究培训机会，促进生物医学和老龄化的发展 具有独特经验和视角的生物医学科学家。为了实现这一目标，我们将：i)使用我们的 已经制定并验证了创新战略，为不同的生物医学科学招募100名URM 南加州大学的学科和老龄化相关研究经验。我们将通过举办以下活动来吸引这些学生 整个学年在南加州大学校园举办研讨会、工作坊和讲座。二)组织南加州大学 生物医学科学论坛将邀请来自100个URM的50名URM学生参加为期两天的会议 春季学期的迎新活动。这些学生将参观南加州大学及其生物医学科学项目，同时 还获得了为期十周的夏季代表的信息。三)提供为期10周的暑期教育辅导 并在五年内每年为十名代表学生提供在南加州大学的研究机会。对于暑期项目，我们 将，1)将每个代表参与者与一位导师配对，以启动个人发展 计划(IDP)，并组织每周指导活动，2)为以下人员组织专业发展研讨会培训 老龄化研究中的URM，3)实施每周一次的科学/期刊俱乐部会议，讨论相关出版物 到老龄化研究，4)组织专业发展研讨会培训，使代表学生与 南加州大学在职业发展活动方面的培训计划，允许与其他年轻同事建立联系， 5)为代表学生提供科学研究，促进他们在生物医学领域的研究生涯发展 科学和促进研究生的抱负。除了夏季代表，我们还将提供研究和 指导机会，继续与南加州大学培训计划的代表学生协同。通过提供 学术支持倡议，包括指导、专业发展活动和生物医学培训 科学和老龄化相关的研究机会，我们将能够增加生物医学领域的多样性 为年轻的URM生物医学科学家进行的科学和老龄化相关研究。对销售代表学生的持续“指导” 将一直持续到他们完成生物医学学士学位，甚至将继续最终 他们被南加州大学生物医学科学研究生项目录取。我们预计70%的代表学生 在他们的大四将有研究经验，在出版物(手稿和会议)中明显 摘要)。研究经验将为他们的研究生课程做好准备，而出版物将使他们 他们竞争研究生院的录取资格。我们计划提高至少60%的URM的意识， 通过对大一至大四不同职业机会下的老龄化研究。
