DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal provides short-term experience and training in biomedical research for undergraduate students from underrepresented and disadvantaged groups. The Principal Investigator, Judith S. Bond, PhD, is an NIDDK funded investigator for more than 30 years. She is a past member and chair of an NIH Study Section, past member of the NIDDK Advisory Council and immediate past president of ASBMB. The plan provides background and hands-on experience in research related to the mission of NIDDK. In order to increase the number of underrepresented minority and disadvantaged students pursuing careers in biomedical research, it is necessary to address both content knowledge and technical skills, as well as attitudinal and perceptional barriers to success. To achieve this goal, we have brought together a team of basic and clinical scientists, and science educators. This team has a record of ongoing collaborations within The Pennsylvania State University System to improve K-16 science education, and between The Penn State College of Medicine and Lincoln University, one of the nation's oldest Historically Black Universities. The objectives of the proposal are that students will (1) learn, through hands-on experience, how discovery research is conducted and the results are disseminated to others, (2) explore careers in biomedical research and become familiar with the requirements to pursue selected career options (3), become proficient in using the Internet to acquire reliable information and to exchange ideas and information, and (4) learn about the prevention, cause and treatment of obesity, diabetes, and kidney/urologic diseases. The curriculum will also include discussions on normative standards of conduct, privacy and confidentiality issues, laboratory safety, research integrity, record keeping, data management, and communication skills. Our colleagues at Lincoln University and the Penn State Harrisburg campus are key in identifying and recommending college students that will benefit from the experience, and have a good probability of proceeding through the pipeline into an independent career in biomedical science. Although the primary goal of this proposal is to increase the number and competence of members of underrepresented groups in biomedical research, an important secondary benefit is to expand the proportion of underrepresented population who understand that life-style decisions have great consequences for their personal health and that of their family, friends and community.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该建议为来自代表性不足和处于弱势群体的本科生提供了生物医学研究的短期经验和培训。首席研究员Judith S. Bond博士是NIDDK资助的研究员已有30多年的历史了。她是NIH研究部分的前成员兼主席，NIDDK咨询委员会的前任成员以及ASBMB的前任主席。该计划提供了与NIDDK使命有关的研究背景和实践经验。为了增加从事生物医学研究职业的人数不足的少数群体和处境不利的学生的数量，有必要解决内容知识和技术技能以及成功的态度和感知障碍。为了实现这一目标，我们将一组基础和临床科学家以及科学教育者组成。该团队在宾夕法尼亚州立大学系统中持续合作，以改善K-16科学教育，以及宾夕法尼亚州立医学院与林肯大学（美国历史上最古老的黑人大学之一）之间的合作记录。 The objectives of the proposal are that students will (1) learn, through hands-on experience, how discovery research is conducted and the results are disseminated to others, (2) explore careers in biomedical research and become familiar with the requirements to pursue selected career options (3), become proficient in using the Internet to acquire reliable information and to exchange ideas and information, and (4) learn about the prevention, cause and treatment of obesity, diabetes, and kidney/urologic疾病。该课程还将包括有关行为规范标准，隐私和机密问题，实验室安全，研究完整性，记录保存，数据管理和沟通技巧的讨论。我们在林肯大学和宾夕法尼亚州哈里斯堡校园的同事是识别和推荐将从经验中受益的大学生的关键，并且有可能通过管道进入生物医学科学独立职业。尽管该提案的主要目标是增加生物医学研究中代表性不足的群体成员的数量和能力，但重要的次要收益是扩大代表性不足的人群的比例，他们了解生活方式的决定对他们的个人健康以及家人，朋友，朋友和社区都有很大的影响。
