DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall objective of this program is to extend the pipeline for training in aging research to predoctoral professional students. This T35 will utilize the capabilities of faculty mentors in our existing T32 training programs for postdoctoral and graduate students. Predoctoral professional students from UMB's schools of medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and nursing and the physical therapy doctorate program and nearby professional schools will conduct research in multiple areas of aging research that include areas of clinical, epidemiological, basic-biomedical, mental health, legal-ethical, health services and population-based research in aging. The unique specific aims of this training program are to: 1) bring together a critical mass of predoctoral professional students; 2) provide research training and engender an interest in academic careers in aging research; 3) recruit underrepresented minority students from UMB and nearby historically black medical schools to aging research; 4) ensure that women are encouraged to participate by engaging AMWA and other women's professional organizations; 5) encourage professional students to enter one of several joint masters/doctoral programs at UMB; and 6) to engage all health professional students during the academic year via the Geriatrics Interest Group to provide ongoing programs in translational research related to aging. Students will conduct clinical, epidemiological, basic-biomedical, mental health, legal-ethical, health services and population-based research in aging. These areas involve: 1) exercise rehabilitation research in functionally limited older patients; 2) research in hip fracture recovery; 3) prevention of coronary artery disease through exercise, nutrition and behavior modification in high risk older veterans and the tertiary rehabilitation of older veterans with stroke; and 4) epidemiologic research in residential, long-term care and assisted-living. This predoctoral, professional student program will occur over the summer months (June-Aug) with an expected 20 students each summer, most of whom who have already gained some research experience elsewhere. A minimum 'B' in all course work will be required. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The aging of the US population necessitates increased research on diseases and conditions that affect older adults as reflected in NIH's Healthy People program which goal is to increase quality and years of healthy life. To increase the number of scientific investigators, students must be made of aware of the need for such research and training. This summer research program provides that exposure when critical decisions about future professional goals are most immediate.

描述（由申请人提供）：该计划的总体目的是将培训培训的管道扩展到专业前学生。该T35将在我们为博士后和研究生的现有T32培训计划中利用教师导师的能力。来自UMB医学，牙科，药房和护理学校以及附近的专业学校的专业专业学生将在多个老龄化研究领域进行研究，其中包括临床，流行病学，基本生物医学，精神健康，法律伦理，法律伦理，伦理学，卫生，卫生，基于人群的研究和基于老年的研究。该培训计划的独特特定目的是：1）将大量专业专业学生汇集在一起​​； 2）提供研究培训并引起对老龄化研究学术职业的兴趣； 3）从UMB和附近的历史悠久的黑人医学院招募代表性不足的少数族裔学生到老龄化研究； 4）确保鼓励妇女参与AMWA和其他妇女专业组织； 5）鼓励专业学生进入UMB的几个联合硕士/博士课程之一； 6）在学年通过老年兴趣小组吸引所有卫生专业学生，以提供与衰老有关的转化研究计划。学生将进行临床，流行病学，基本生物医学，心理健康，法律伦理，卫生服务和基于人群的衰老研究。这些领域涉及：1）在功能有限的老年患者中进行康复研究； 2）研究髋部骨折恢复； 3）通过运动，营养和行为修改来预防高风险的老年退伍军人和中风老年退伍军人的三级康复； 4）在住宅，长期护理和辅助生活方面的流行病学研究。这个专业的专业学生计划将在夏季（6月至8月）进行，每年夏天有20名学生，其中大多数已经在其他地方获得了一些研究经验。在所有课程中，都需要最低的“ B”。 公共卫生相关性：美国人口的老龄化需要对影响老年人的疾病和状况的研究增加，这反映在NIH的健康人计划中，该计划的目标是提高质量和健康生活。为了增加科学研究人员的数量，必须使学生意识到需要进行研究和培训的必要性。本夏季研究计划提供了有关对未来专业目标的关键决策的最直接决策时的暴露。
