英文摘要
Project Summary / Abstract
We propose to continue and expand the impact of a six-day summer short course on genomics for Native
American college and university students with a background and interest in genomics. The short-term goals of
the program, entitled the Summer Internship for Native Americans in Genomics (SING), are to train Native
American students in next-generation genomic and bioinformatics analyses and to build capacity for scientific
research of Native American communities. Additionally, the SING program builds a support network for
indigenous scholars in the STEM fields. We expand the impact of the SING short course by having additional
venues of the SING short course at universities with established research programs involving indigenous peoples
and genomics in different geographic regions of the United States. Parts of the SING short course will be tailored
to specific issues of indigenous peoples of the geographic region and will take advantage of the expertise of
faculty of the host institutions. Specifically, we propose to convene the SING short course at the University of
Arizona in 2017 with a specialized module on cancer genomics and precision health, the University of
Washington in 2018 with a specialized module in pharmacogenomics and then back at the University of Illinois
at Urbana-Champaign with a specialized module in transcriptomics and epigenetics. The expertise of the SING
faculty and resources available at the host universities provide enriching environments to educate Native
American students and tackle important problems of genomics with indigenous communities. Our unique short
course with significant hands-on training in molecular biology, bioinformatics and ELSI strategies transform
education for underrepresented minorities in the scientific community. This program will continue to be
empirically evaluated and continue to serve as a model for other institutions.
