KUH Undergraduate Summer Research Program at Yale

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一个应用程序，以提供肾脏，泌尿学和血液学研究的现代方法的强化培训，旨在培养本科生从事生物医学研究的职业生涯。每年夏天为12名学生提供资金，为致力于研究培训的本科生提供支持。培训提供实验室和基于患者的研究从各个部门（内科，泌尿科，遗传学，细胞生物学，细胞和分子生理学，流行病学和公共卫生），往往是相互关联的了解肾脏，下尿路的生物学，在健康和疾病状态下造血。本科生的经验将得到加强，不仅通过执行实验，但由专门的导师，以及在选定的部门提供广泛的教学会议给出了一个有组织的教学时间表。学生还将有机会在夏季轮换结束时在NIH展示他或她的研究。总的目标是为学生在这个程序注册研究生或医学院在一个研究密集型机构。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an application to provide intensive training in modern methods of kidney, urology and hematology research with the intent to foster undergraduate students to pursue a career in biomedical research. Funding for twelve students per summer is requested to provide support for the undergraduate students who are committed to research training. Training is provided in both laboratory and patient-based research from the various departments (Internal Medicine, Urology, Genetics, Cell Biology, Cellular and Molecular Physiology, and Epidemiology and Public Health) that are often interconnected in understanding biology of the kidney, lower urinary tract, and hematopoiesis during health and disease states. The undergraduate students' experience will be enhanced not only by performing experiments but by an organized didactic teaching schedule given by dedicated mentors, as well as a wide array of teaching conferences available in the selected departments. The student will also have the opportunity to present his or her research at the NIH at the end of the summer rotation. The overall goal is for the students in this program to enroll in graduate or medical school at a research- intensive institution.
