DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this proposal is to improve cancer-related nutrition knowledge and provide individual and small group nutrition-related experiences for medical students in order to enhance their ability to address nutrition issues as physicians in the future. We wish to instill the belief that nutrition is an important and effective way to decrease cancer risk using the experiences of University of Iowa and five other nationally known lecturers from four different cancer research institutions. Specifically, students will undergo self- assessment and experience the process of personal behavior change to achieve this goal. We will evaluate behavior change in actual clinical settings. Our audience will be medical students in Years 1 through 4 of the University of Iowa Roy and Lucille Carver College of Medicine, including medical students in the College of Public Health joint MPH/MD program. Our aim is also to disseminate both strategies and evaluation methods to other medial schools throughout the country. Our specific aims include: 1. To integrate nutrition principles related to cancer prevention into the medical school curriculum and public health graduate school programs. 2. To disseminate both learning strategies and evaluation techniques to medical schools throughout the U.S. To involve other medical schools throughout the U.S. and various departments within the University of Iowa Colleges of Public Health and Medicine so that the nutrition needs of patients of different ages, ethnic groups, and special needs within populations are addressed. A prototype of dissemination has, been piloted through the Nutrition Academic Award (NAA). 3. To continue existing and to develop new infrastructures to maintain nutrition and cancer prevention learning experiences throughout the four-year curriculum and beyond the life of this proposal. To promote research studies in nutrition and cancer prevention at the University of Iowa with dissemination packages for other medical schools to use in conjunction with units such as the NIH-funded General Clinical Research Center (GCRC).

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案的总体目标是提高与癌症相关的营养知识，并为医学生提供个人和小组的营养相关经验，以提高他们未来作为医生解决营养问题的能力。我们希望通过爱荷华大学和来自四个不同癌症研究机构的其他五位全国知名讲师的经验，向人们灌输营养是降低癌症风险的重要而有效的方法。具体而言，学生将经历自我评估，并体验个人行为改变的过程，以实现这一目标。我们将在实际的临床环境中评估行为改变。我们的听众将是爱荷华大学罗伊和露西尔卡弗医学院一到四年级的医学生，包括公共卫生学院公共卫生硕士/医学博士联合项目的医学生。我们的目标还包括向全国其他医学院推广这两种策略和评估方法。我们的具体目标包括：
