Alpert Medical School Summer Research Program

描述(由申请人提供)： 阿尔伯特医学院分子病理生物学和卫生服务/心肺疾病结果研究暑期研究计划(AMSSRP)建议支持暑期研究培训。主要目标是为医学生提供生物医学研究方面的经验，并鼓励他们开始作为内科科学家的职业生涯。一个次要的目标是为学生提供一个单一的研究导师和重点，将跟踪他们在整个医学院的培训。AMSSRP的更大背景是一个独特的学术集中(SC)计划，该计划鼓励学生发展他们在所有四年医学院期间所追求的学术兴趣。寻求支持6名学生在医学院第一年后的夏天在布朗大学的一个研究实验室工作10周，在一名教师培训师的监督下工作。来自不同学科和部门的26名布朗研究人员具有丰富的培训经验，将为学生提供加入他们的实验室进行夏季研究的机会。七名初级教员也将担任培训员。这些人将与资深教师配对，在指导学生方面提供指导。教职员工还将担任学生的注意力导师。学生将在第一个医学学年的冬季制定一份研究提案和初步的集中提案。AMSSRP执行委员会将根据科学成就和学生的研究潜力和对研究事业的承诺来评估这些建议并给予奖励。除了导师指导的研究经验外，学生还将参加每周关于核心研究主题的研讨会，包括研究的伦理行为。教师培训师将参加这些研讨会，描述他们的研究并讨论他们自己的职业发展。在暑期体验结束后的秋季，学生们将在医学院范围内的学生研究研讨会上展示他们的研究成果。AMSSRP将为我们的学生提供研究经验，作为SC计划的一部分，将有助于促进他们作为专注于心肺疾病的内科科学家的发展。(摘要结束)

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Alpert Medical School Summer Research Program (AMSSRP) in Molecular Pathobiology and Health Services/Outcomes research in cardiopulmonary diseases proposes to support summer research training. The primary objectives are to provide medical students with experience in biomedical research and to encourage them to embark on careers as physician scientists. A secondary objective is to provide students with a single research mentor and focus that will follow them through the entirety of their medical school training. The larger context for the AMSSRP is a unique Scholarly Concentrations (SC) program that encourages students to develop a scholarly interest that they pursue during all four years of medical school. Support is sought for 6 students to spend 10 weeks in the summer following the first year of medical school working in a research laboratory at Brown under the supervision of a faculty trainer. Twenty-six Brown researchers with extensive training experience from a variety of disciplines and departments will offer students the opportunity to join their laboratories for summer research. Seven junior faculty members will also serve as trainers. These individuals will be paired with senior faculty to provide guidance in mentoring students. Faculty will also serve as the student's Concentration mentors. Students will develop a research proposal and preliminary Concentration proposal during the winter of their first medical school year. The AMSSRP Executive Committee will evaluate the proposals and make awards based on scientific merit and the student's potential for and commitment to a research career. In addition to the mentored research experience, students will participate in weekly seminars on core research subjects, including the ethical conduct of research. Faculty trainers will participate in these seminars, both describing their research and discussing their own career development. During the fall after their summer experience, students will present their research at a medical school-wide student research symposium. The AMSSRP will provide our students with research experience that, as a component of the SC program, will serve to promote their development as physician-scientists with a focus on cardiopulmonary diseases.
