Since its origins nearly 60 years ago, the Iowa Medical Student Summer Research Program has continuously evolved to sustain its mission of enveloping medical students in mentored research opportunities that foster their development into accomplished physician-scientists that positively impact human health. The last six years have demonstrated unprecedented success in the level of student engagement and productivity with ongoing achievement in the recruitment and retention of students from underrepresented groups. It is against this backdrop of accelerated growth and diversification that we propose to sharpen our focus and deepen our students' engagement with an exceptional cadre of enthusiastic mentors performing scientifically rigorous trans-NIDDK research focused on digestive and liver diseases; endocrine and metabolic diseases; obesity and nutritional disorders; or kidney and urologic diseases. Those four areas of investigation are long-standing institutional strengths, and with seed funding from our College of Medicine, we have begun transitioning our historically successful campus-wide single-stream funding model into a re-envisioned program with the same high level administrative infrastructure now leveraged to selectively enhance recruitment and support of a diverse cohort of M1 students that are committed to a summer of immersive research with our curated roster of 42 outstanding and experienced Participating Faculty on a project within the research mission of the NIDDK. This training grant proposal seeks transformative funding for 16 students to participate in 12-week summer fellowships, and the funds provided through this training grant would be matched by the College of Medicine, amplifying the impact of the award. In synergy with extensive opportunities provided through relevant Centers and Institutes, scholars will receive Instruction in Methods for Enhancing Reproducibility and the Responsible Conduct of Research, as well as mentor-guided journal clubs and research seminars. In the years that follow, students enroll in our research skills course, year-long research opportunities, the Research Distinction Track, and dual degree programs. We closely monitor students alongside their mentors as they continue their pathway towards a research career with incremental advancement through the continuity of support that is available at our institution, including funding during residency, fellowship, and junior faculty appointments. We critically evaluate every aspect of our extensive programing each year through a combination of anonymous surveys and collaborative discussions to continuously enhance the exposure of our students to the entire research process, from writing a proposal to analyzing data, presenting at local and national meetings, and ultimately disseminating the results in peer reviewed journals. The long-term impact of this program is the development of a diverse cohort of physicians that are equipped to extend their discoveries into real-life applications that improve human health through prevention and improved treatment for gastrointestinal, endocrine, metabolic, nutritional, renal and urologic disease.

自近60年前成立以来，爱荷华州医科学生暑期研究项目一直在不断 发展到维持其使命，即让医学生获得指导研究机会，从而促进 他们发展成为对人类健康有积极影响的有成就的内科科学家。过去的六年 多年来，在学生参与度和工作效率方面取得了前所未有的成功 在招收和留住任职人数不足群体的学生方面不断取得成就。它是反对的 在这种加速增长和多样化的背景下，我们建议突出我们的重点，深化我们的 学生与一群热情的杰出导师的互动，这些导师在科学上表现得严谨 反式NIDDK研究集中在消化和肝脏疾病；内分泌和代谢性疾病；肥胖和 营养失调；或肾脏和泌尿系统疾病。这四个领域的调查由来已久 机构优势，以及我们医学院的种子资金，我们已经开始过渡我们的 将历史上成功的校园范围内的单流融资模式转变为重新设想的计划 现在利用高级行政基础设施有选择地加强招聘和支持 不同的M1学生队列，他们致力于利用我们策划的花名册进行一个夏天的沉浸式研究 42名杰出且经验丰富的教员参与了NIDDK研究任务范围内的一个项目。 这项培训资助计划寻求为16名学生提供变革性资金，让他们参加为期12周的暑期活动 奖学金，通过这笔培训赠款提供的资金将由医学院匹配， 放大了该奖项的影响。通过相关中心提供的广泛机会实现协同 和研究所，学者将接受关于提高重现性的方法和责任的指导 研究的进行，以及导师指导的期刊俱乐部和研究研讨会。在接下来的几年里， 学生报名参加我们的研究技能课程，为期一年的研究机会，研究荣誉轨道， 和双学位课程。我们与他们的导师一起密切监视学生继续他们的 通过持续的支持以渐进的方式迈向研究事业的道路，即 在我们机构提供，包括在实习、研究员和初级教员任命期间的资金。我们 每年通过匿名组合对我们广泛的计划的每一个方面进行批判性评估 调查和协作讨论，不断加强我们的学生对整个 研究过程，从起草提案到分析数据，在地方和国家会议上发表报告，以及 最终在同行评议的期刊上传播研究结果。这项计划的长期影响是 发展一支多样化的医生队伍，准备将他们的发现推广到现实生活中 通过预防和改善胃肠道疾病的治疗来改善人类健康的应用， 内分泌、代谢、营养、肾脏和泌尿系统疾病。
