项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The proposed renewal of the Short-Term Minority Research Training Program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Molecular and Environmental Toxicology Center will provide 8-10 weeks of laboratory research experience in molecular and environmental toxicology to four (4) minority undergraduates, in the summer generally between their junior and senior years. The summer program will continue to be an integral part of the pre-doctoral and postdoctoral training program currently funded by NIEHS in the Center, and is coordinated with other summer programs on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. The summer program's goals are as follows: 1. To give trainees the scientific and social experience of working in a top-class science laboratory at a major research University. 2. To provide a challenging research experience which will leave students with a record and sense of achievement. 3. To demonstrate to students that toxicology is an exciting area for research and can provide challenging careers. 4. To present toxicology as a scientific discipline of particular relevance to economically disadvantaged communities. 5. To provide students with an idea of what graduate education involves and how best to prepare during the remainder of their undergraduate years. 6. To promote the University of Wisconsin-Madison as an option for graduate training in toxicology. Summer trainees will carry out a research project in the laboratory of one of 21 trainers, 20 of whom also participate in the graduate program in Molecular and Environmental Toxicology. The laboratory experience (about 40 hours per week) will be accompanied by weekly tutorial sessions in toxicology that will include a variety of speakers from the METC program (faculty, students, and postdoctoral fellows) who discuss a variety of contemporary issues in toxicological research. The students also will receive training in how to read and understand a research paper, how to prepare a research proposal, write a scientific report, and give a scientific presentation. This program will coordinate with other University of Wisconsin-Madison programs for undergraduate minorities, including a symposium at the Program's conclusion. Application forms and publicity for the Program will be sent out along with graduate school publicity to more than 1,300 schools (March 1 deadline) and will be posted on the Center's Web site and minority-network Web sites. Additional contacts will be made with schools where long-term linkages are being developed. Priority will be given to students who express interest in, and have the potential to complete, the University of Wisconsin-Madison Ph.D. Program. Following the summer experience, the investigators will provide support as trainees plan for graduate education and careers.

描述（由申请人提供）威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校分子和环境毒理学中心短期少数族裔研究培训计划的拟议更新计划将于夏季为四 (4) 名少数族裔本科生提供 8-10 周的分子和环境毒理学实验室研究经验一般在大三和大四之间。该暑期项目将继续成为该中心目前由 NIEHS 资助的博士前和博士后培训项目的组成部分，并与威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校校园的其他暑期项目相协调。暑期项目的目标如下： 1. 为学员提供在主要研究型大学的顶级科学实验室工作的科学和社会经验。 2. 提供具有挑战性的研究经历，让学生留下记录和成就感。 3. 向学生证明毒理学是一个令人兴奋的研究领域，并且可以提供具有挑战性的职业。 4. 将毒理学视为一门与经济弱势群体特别相关的科学学科。 5. 让学生了解研究生教育的内容以及如何在本科剩余时间做好准备。 6. 推广威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校作为毒理学研究生培训的一个选择。暑期学员将在 21 名培训师之一的实验室中开展研究项目，其中 20 名培训师还参加分子和环境毒理学研究生课程。实验室体验（每周约 40 小时）将伴随着每周的毒理学辅导课程，其中包括来自 METC 项目的各种演讲者（教师、学生和博士后研究员），他们讨论毒理学研究中的各种当代问题。学生还将接受如何阅读和理解研究论文、如何准备研究计划、撰写科学报告以及进行科学演示的培训。该计划将与威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校针对少数族裔本科生的其他计划进行协调，包括在该计划结束时举行研讨会。该计划的申请表和宣传材料将与研究生院宣传材料一起发送给 1,300 多所学校（截止日期为 3 月 1 日），并将张贴在中心网站和少数族裔网络网站上。我们将与正在建立长期联系的学校建立更多联系。将优先考虑对威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校博士课程感兴趣并有潜力完成该课程的学生。程序。暑期体验结束后，研究人员将为学员规划研究生教育和职业提供支持。
