Undergraduate Engineering in Medical Research

这个REU网站程序的智力重点是生物医学工程研究。有前途的本科生将学习技术技能，发展个人和项目管理能力，对他们的工作进行口头和书面陈述，并接触到与生物医学研究相关的伦理和FDA监管问题。参与者将被要求在克利夫兰诊所基金会（CCF）至少进行三次正式演讲，一些学生将出席区域或国家会议。 道德培训计划包括在给学生的讲座中，其中还包括化学，放射性和生物危害安全，研究中的动物使用，论文写作，赠款写作，良好实验室规范法规，以及书目资源和搜索。招聘工作将集中在代表性不足的群体的本科生。所有工程和技术学位领域和一些生命科学的学生将被考虑为该计划。 该计划将增加学生的信心，独立工作的能力，对研究作为科学奋进的理解，并鼓励他们寻求研究生教育和研究作为职业目标。

The intellectual focus of this REU Site program is Biomedical Engineering research. Promising undergraduate students will learn technical skills, develop personal and project management abilities, make oral and written presentations about their work and be exposed to ethical and FDA regulatory issues related to biomedical research. The participants will be required to make a minimum of three formal presentations at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF), and some students will present at regional or national meetings. An ethics training program is included among the lectures given to the students, which also include chemical, radiological and biohazard safety, animal use in research, paper-writing, grant writing, Good Laboratory Practice regulations, and Bibliographic Resources and Searching. Recruitment efforts will focus on undergraduate students from underrepresented groups. All engineering and technical degree fields and some life sciences students will be considered for the program. The program will increase the students' confidence, ability to work independently, understanding of research as a scientific endeavor, and encourage them to seek post-graduate education and research as a career objective.
