DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This research education program offers short-term support to underrepresented or disadvantaged undergraduate and medical school students to provide them with career opportunities in cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic or sleep research. The research activity will expose trainees to the excitement, challenges and rewards of a career in biomedical research that are not otherwise available in their regular course of study. The CWRU short term HLB program will provide mentored research training with outstanding investigators in these four areas to 12 undergraduates and 8 medical students each year. The overall goal of this training program is to increase diversity among students who pursue academic careers in medicine and science, particularly in cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic and sleep research. This goal will be pursued by (1) helping trainees develop research skills, identity with the scientific profession and confidence in a research environment through well structured, mentored short term experiences that lay the foundation for biomedical research in clinical and bench settings, (2) providing exposure to other areas and leaders in research with guest lectures, student presentations and social activities. Undergraduates from around the nation will be selected from more than 100 or more online applications each year after competitive review, and matched with researchers for 2-3 months on a full time basis as summer research trainees. Medical students largely from this institution will be selected on the basis of the quality of the research proposal, the strength of the advisor as a research mentor and role model and the potential for a positive research experience and spend 2-3 consecutive full time months during the summer. Both groups of trainees will attend common weekly sessions and interact to build a community of peers. Our faculty lead outstanding programs that encompass basic, translational, clinical, population-based research programs in cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic and sleep research, and each has an outstanding training record and strong interest in working with students. Our evaluation system allows us to continuously improve our training program, and our database and tracking plan highlights the achievements and career outcomes of our trainees. (End of Abstract)

描述(由申请者提供)：该研究教育计划为人数不足或处境不利的本科生和医学院学生提供短期支持，为他们提供心血管、肺部、血液学或睡眠研究的职业机会。研究活动将使学员在生物医学研究的职业生涯中感受到兴奋、挑战和回报，这是他们在常规学习过程中无法获得的。CWRU短期HLB项目每年将为12名本科生和8名医学生提供这四个领域优秀研究人员的指导性研究培训。这一培训计划的总体目标是增加在医学和科学领域追求学术生涯的学生的多样性，特别是在心血管、肺部、血液和睡眠研究方面。这一目标将通过以下方式实现：(1)通过良好组织的、有指导的短期经验，为临床和实验室环境中的生物医学研究奠定基础，帮助受训者培养研究技能、对科学职业的认同感和对研究环境的信心；(2)通过客座讲座、学生演讲和社交活动，提供对其他研究领域和研究领导者的接触。来自全国各地的本科生将通过竞争审查，从每年100多个或更多的在线申请中挑选出来，并作为暑期研究实习生与研究人员进行为期2-3个月的全职匹配。主要来自该机构的医科学生将根据研究提案的质量、作为研究导师和榜样的顾问的实力以及获得积极研究经验的潜力来选择，并在暑期连续2-3个月全职学习。两组受训人员将参加共同的每周会议，并进行互动，以建立同龄人社区。我们的教师领导着出色的项目，包括心血管、肺、血液和睡眠研究方面的基础、翻译、临床和基于人群的研究项目，每个教师都有出色的培训记录和对与学生合作的浓厚兴趣。我们的评估体系使我们能够不断改进我们的培训计划，我们的数据库和跟踪计划突出了我们学员的成就和职业成就。(摘要结束)
