DESCRIPTION (Adapted From Application): The applicant seeks support for a four-year continuation of a program under a new P.I. The program is exceptional and novel in its form and success. This innovative program at the University of Arizona (UA) is termed the Biomedical Research Abroad: Vistas Open Program (BRAVO!/MIRT) and is designed to prepare minority students under-represented in the sciences enabling them to conduct research projects in diffuse locations abroad that build upon the research they do at UA. Student projects span a broad range of disciplines. All are related to biomedical or behavioral research that have a connection to health problems that in one way or another affect under-served groups in the US or abroad. The BRAVO!/MIRT activities are integrated into UA's Undergraduate Biology Research Program (UBRP). The international experience is a part of a research experience-continuum that begins in the first two years of college and continues after their return. This embeds the international experience into the students' education, maximizing its benefits. Of the 43 trainees in the program from 93-99, three students have received their doctoral degrees, four have received masters, two have received MD degrees, and 27 have received bachelor's degrees. Eight are still in medical school; 13 are in graduate school, seven are in research-related positions while applying to graduate or medical school, and eight are current undergraduates. The majority of MIRT student trainees have been female (53%) and Hispanic (76%). The program is meeting its goal of increasing the number of minority scientists conducting biomedical and behavioral research and preparing them to be part of the international scientific community.

描述（根据申请改编）：申请人寻求支持 根据新的P.I.该程序是例外 和新颖的形式和成功。该大学的创新计划 亚利桑那州（UA）被称为国外生物医学研究：Vistas Open计划 （Bravo！/Mirt），旨在为少数族裔学生准备不足的人准备 科学使他们能够在分散地点进行研究项目 他们在UA进行的研究基础的国外。学生项目跨越 广泛的学科。所有这些都与生物医学或行为有关 与健康问题有联系的研究以一种或另一种方式 影响美国或国外服务不足的群体。 Bravo！/Mirt活动是 集成到UA的本科生物学研究计划（UBRP）中。这 国际经验是研究经验体验的一部分 从大学的前两年开始，并在回归后继续。这 将国际经验嵌入学生的教育中，最大化 它的好处。 在93-99的计划中的43名学员中，有三名学生收到 他们的博士学位，四个获得了硕士学位，两个已获得MD 学位和27位获得了学士学位。八人仍在医疗中 学校; 13个在研究生院，有7个处于研究相关职位 在申请研究生或医学院时，八个是当前的 本科生。大多数MIRT学生学员都是女性（53％） 和西班牙裔（76％）。该计划正在实现其增加数量的目标 进行生物医学和行为研究和准备的少数派科学家 他们成为国际科学界的一部分。
