Child-Centered, Team-Based, Interdisciplinary Bioengineering Summer Research Experience

项目总结 建议的暑期研究体验计划的最终目标是提供高 通过真正的多学科研究项目向本科生提供高质量的研究经验 来自当地的学生、高中生和特殊学生教育(ESE)教师 有大量少数族裔代表不足的学校，特别是有 残疾人士。作为该计划的一部分，参与者将更多地了解 不同学科在生物医学背景下的不同角色和贡献 儿科活动康复的工程学、行为科学和临床研究课题 和辅助技术。这项计划将通过手为参与者提供培训- 专注于以下研究项目的跨专业和翻译研究经验 满足临床和社区需求。该计划将包括与工业企业的合作伙伴关系 (强生)、临床(梅奥诊所)和社区(杜瓦尔县公立学校)合作者，以及 将向参与者介绍一系列主题，包括游戏与儿科移动性、3D打印、 自适应玩具，临床评估和诊断，营养和神经发育， 生物医学研究伦理与传播。其目的是为参与者提供一个 鼓励未来研究职业的研究经验(学生)，并指导 能够更有效地教授科学进步和职业生涯的研究方法 (教师)。此外，该方案将补充美国国立卫生研究院(NICHD)赞助的培训 已在大学实施，并将其扩展到早年的学术培训， 旨在增加来自不同学术背景的参与者的总体数量 通过招聘和留住生物医学、行为和临床研究职业。

PROJECT SUMMARY The end goal of the proposed Summer Research Experience Program is to provide high quality research experiences through truly multidisciplinary research projects to undergraduate students, high school students and Exceptional Student Education (ESE) teachers from local schools with a large number of underrepresented minorities, in particular students with disabilities. As part of this program participants will gain an increased appreciation of the diverse roles and contributions from different disciplines in the context of biomedical engineering, behavioral science, and clinical research topics on pediatric mobility rehabilitation and assistive technology. This program will provide participants with training through a hands- on, interprofessional, and translational research experience focused on research projects that meet clinical and community needs. The program will comprise a partnership with industrial (J&J), clinical (Mayo Clinic) and community (Duval County Public Schools) collaborators, and will expose participants to a range of topics including Play and Pediatric Mobility, 3D printing, Adaptive Toys, Clinical Assessment and Diagnostics, Nutrition and Neurodevelopment, Biomedical Research Ethics, and Communication. The aim is to provide participants with a research experience that encourages future research careers (students), and mentoring on research methods that enable more effective teaching of scientific progress and careers (teachers). Furthermore, the program will complement the NIH (NICHD)-sponsored training already in place at the University and expand it to the earlier years of academic training, aiming to increase the overall number of participants from diverse academic backgrounds in biomedical, behavioral and clinical research careers through recruitment and retention.
