The long-term goal of this project is to increase the number of disadvantaged students who, at the completion of their bachelors degree, are interested in and qualified for post-baccalaureate study in medical school or graduate school in the biomedical sciences. This pre- freshman research experience, the High School Student Research Intern Program (HSSRIP) is a six-week summer program designed to introduce and excite students to life science research and career opportunities that are available to students who choose to pursue a degree in such fields as chemistry, biology, biochemistry, genetics, microbiology, biomedical sciences and zoology. Students apprentice in university laboratories, where they learn techniques and procedures commonly used in life science research. They meet twice weekly for instruction, tours, (Departments of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Biology, Chemistry, Medical School, Medical Sciences Library, and Veterinary School), discussions, and guest speakers describing research projects. Additionally, students receive assistance in the use of the library, on- line data retrieval and management, and career counseling in these fields. Students communicate electronically with each other, their mentors, and the project directors. This combination of experiences gives each student new perspectives about science and related career opportunities. At the end of the program, apprentices give written and oral presentations of their research accomplishments. This project is part of a larger program to provide longitudinal support for disadvantaged students. This is a 'feeder' program into the Howard Hughes Medical Institute-Undergraduate Research Intern Program. In this program freshmen and sophomores continue working in research laboratories, are clustered in math and science courses, and provided with Supplemental Instruction and enrichment experiences. Juniors and seniors are given research scholarships to continue work in research laboratories. Participation culminates with the presentation of papers at regional and national meetings.

该项目的长期目标是增加 缺席的学生，在完成单身汉后 学位，对后核研究感兴趣并有资格 生物医学科学的医学院或研究生院。 这个预先 大一研究经验，高中生研究 实习计划（HSSRIP）是一个为期六周的夏季计划 向学生介绍并激发生活科学研究和职业 选择攻读学位的学生可以使用的机会 在化学，生物学，生物化学，遗传学等领域 微生物学，生物医学和动物学。 学生学徒 大学实验室，他们学习技术和程序 通常用于生命科学研究。 他们每周两次见面 教学，旅游，（生物化学和生物物理学部门，生物学， 化学，医学院，医学科学图书馆和兽医 学校，讨论和来宾演讲者描述研究项目。 此外，学生在图书馆的使用方面得到帮助， 线数据检索和管理以及这些领域的职业咨询。 学生彼此以电子方式沟通，他们的导师和 项目总监。 这种经验的结合为每个学生提供 关于科学及相关职业机会的新观点。 在 该计划的结尾，学徒进行书面和口头陈述 他们的研究成就。 该项目是提供纵向支持的较大计划的一部分 适用于处境不利的学生。 这是一个“馈线”程序 进入霍华德·休斯医学研究所的研究生研究实习生 程序。 在这个计划中，新生和大二学生继续工作 研究实验室，集中在数学和科学课程中， 提供补充指导和丰富经验。 授予大三学生和前辈的研究奖学金，以继续工作 研究实验室。 参与最终以 区域和国家会议上的论文。
