NH CREATES the Future: The New Hampshire Collaborative for Regenerative Medicine Education and Training for Engineers and Scientists of the Future

项目摘要 NH创造未来：NH再生医学教育合作 未来工程师和科学家的培训 新罕布什尔州大学与来自新泽西州的教师合作， 汉普郡IDEA生物医学研究卓越网络（NH-INBRE），以及 学区和行业合作伙伴，提出NIH科学教育合作伙伴奖 建立和推进NH创造未来：NH再生协作 未来工程师和科学家的医学教育和培训（以下简称NH CREATES）。NH CREATES的总体目标是建立一个强大的管道， 从中学到高等教育的新兴再生医学， 生物织物（RM&B）产业在新罕布什尔州。NHCREATES目标1将提供 每年为12名6-12年级教师提供正式的专业发展和培训， 通过RM&B的透镜及其基本概念， (1)生物再生，（2）细胞和分子生物学，（3）计算方法， 生物学，和（4）分子结构和功能，以及负责任的研究行为。 目标2每年为40名代表不足的青年提供一套暑期课程， 结合以RM&B为重点的项目学习。该平台还将 提供一个论坛，家长，学校管理人员和行业合作伙伴可以把学生 进入一个社区的近同行导师，建立他们对生物技术的职业道路。 此外，这些青年项目作为学习实验室，支持教师培训 教师的专业发展。 此外，NH CREATES的目标3将 建立一个NH CREATES生态系统，提供一个基础设施，建立关系 并发展NH INBRE内教育机构、学校教师之间的联系 管理者、父母、青年、雇主、社区资源和慈善事业。的 这些利益相关者关系及其活动的结合， 生态系统在新罕布什尔州，促进进入和保留学生在一个 生物医学教育管道跨越中学到高等教育，以 维持劳动力以满足NH的RM&B和生物技术需求。创造是一个 培训机制，为RM&B行业提供受过教育的劳动力，从而， 这一新兴产业可以发挥其治疗疾病的潜力。

Project Summary NH CREATES the Future: the NH Collaborative for Regenerative Medicine Education and Training for Engineers and Scientists of the Future The University of New Hampshire, in collaboration with faculty participants from the New Hampshire IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (NH-INBRE), as well as school district and industry partners, propose an NIH Science Education Partnership Award to establish and advance NH CREATES the Future: the NH Collaborative for Regenerative Medicine Education and Training for Engineers and Scientists of the Future (hereafter, NH CREATES). The overall goal of NH CREATES is to establish a robust pipeline extending from middle school to higher education for the burgeoning regenerative medicine and biofabrication (RM&B) industry in New Hampshire. Aim 1 of NH CREATES will provide formal professional development and training for twelve grades 6-12 teachers per year, in project-based learning implementation through the lens of RM&B and its foundational concepts, (1) organisms for regeneration, (2) cellular and molecular biology, (3) computational methods in biology, and (4) molecular structure and function, as well as responsible conduct of research. Aim 2 provides a set of summer programs for forty under-represented youth annually, incorporating project-based learning that is focused on RM&B. This specific platform will also provide a forum where parents, school administrators and industry partners can bring students into a community of near-peer mentors, to establish them on a biotechnology career pathway. Additionally, these youth project support the teacher training by serving as a learning laboratory for the professional development of the teachers. Moreover, aim 3 of NH CREATES will establish a NH CREATES Ecosystem, to provide an infrastructure that will build relationships and develop connections between educational institutions within NH INBRE, school teachers and administrators, parents, youth, employers, community resources, and philanthropy. The combination of these stakeholder relationships and their activities establish an innovative ecosystem in New Hampshire that facilitates the entry and retention of students in a biomedical education pipeline spanning middle school to higher education, in order to sustain the workforce to meet NH’s RM&B and biotechnology needs. NH CREATES is a training mechanism to supply the RM&B industry with an educated workforce so that, in turn, this burgeoning industry can fulfill its potential to cure disease.
