Clinical Summer Immersion for Biomedical Engineering PhD Students

我们建议在康奈尔大学威尔医学院开设一个暑期临床浸入式课程， 每年有20名对伊萨卡工程学院的生物医学应用感兴趣的工程博士生 校园到纽约市医学院校园进行短期专门的密集临床接触， 在第一年和第二年的研究生培训之间的夏天。每个学生都将参加生物伦理学讲座， 跟随临床医生，并在临床医生的指导下参与临床相关研究 导师这个临床夏季浸泡旨在将BME与医疗保健和社会联系起来， 提高学生对医学的研究兴趣。这会立即影响他们的博士论文 通过增加医学良知来进行研究，并影响他们的长期职业生涯，以改善医疗保健。

We propose a summer clinical immersion program at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University that brings 20 Engineering PhD students per year interested in biomedical applications from Ithaca Engineering College Campus to New York City Medical College Campus for short-term dedicated intensive clinical exposure in the summer between their first and second year of graduate training. Each student will take bioethics lectures, shadow clinical practitioners and participate in clinical related research under the direction of a clinician mentor. This clinical summer immersion is designed to connect BME to healthcare and society and to steer and enhance students’ research interests towards medicine. It will immediately impact their PhD thesis research by adding a medical conscience and influence their long term career towards improving healthcare.
