DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This T-35 application is designed to support medical students involved in a Summer Research and Training Program (SRTP) in Heart, Lung, and Vascular Biology. The primary objective of this program is to provide a meaningful research experience in these areas to students early in their academic career. To achieve this, the program has the following aims: 1) provide students with an idea of what is involved in a career in biomedical research; 2) give participants a comprehensive and current understanding of Heart, Lung, and Vascular Biology; 3) provide an atmosphere that encourages and facilitates student interaction with a diverse group of established investigators and clinicians in these fields; and 4) provide the student with the opportunity to conduct mentor-guided research in order to gain a comprehensive and current understanding of Cardiovascular and Lung Biology and their unsolved research problems. This Program will take advantage of the unique strength of The Vanderbilt Heart and Vascular Institute. The SRTP faculty is composed of 35 investigators carefully selected for both their research interest and their desire to mentor and provide research opportunities to medical students. Through electronic, personal networks, and printed announcements, all US medical students will be informed mid-way through their first year about the SRTP. Students from Vanderbilt and other medical schools are selected to participate in a 12 week research experience at Vanderbilt. Our goal is to have -60% of the participants from Vanderbilt and ~40% from other US medical schools. A monthly student stipend is provided. The program utilizes the traditional preceptor/role model approach. Each student is matched with an established investigator with whom he/she designs and executes a research project. Student participants meet on a regular basis for a lecture series on current challenges in heart, lung and vascular biology research, to interact with senior scientists, and for social events. At the conclusion of the summer research experience, each participant presents a summary of his/her research in a traditional scientific meeting format. Mechanisms to assess the program, student satisfaction, faculty satisfaction, and career choices of the participants are in place. These outcome studies will assess the program's impact on student attitudes toward biomedical research and encouraging students to choose careers involving biomedical research, specifically in the area of Lung and Cardiovascular Biology.

描述（由申请人提供）： 此 T-35 应用程序旨在支持参与心脏、肺和血管生物学夏季研究和培训计划 (SRTP) 的医学生。该计划的主要目标是在学生学术生涯的早期为他们提供这些领域有意义的研究经验。为了实现这一目标，该项目有以下目标：1）让学生了解生物医学研究职业涉及什么； 2) 让参与者对心脏、肺和血管生物学有全面和最新的了解； 3）提供一种鼓励和促进学生与这些领域的不同群体的既定研究人员和临床医生互动的氛围； 4）为学生提供进行导师指导研究的机会，以获得对心血管和肺生物学及其未解决的研究问题的全面和最新的了解。该计划将利用范德比尔特心脏和血管研究所的独特优势。 SRTP 教员由 35 名研究人员组成，这些研究人员根据他们的研究兴趣以及为医学生提供指导和提供研究机会的愿望而精心挑选。通过电子、个人网络和印刷公告，所有美国医学生将在第一学年中期获悉有关 SRTP 的信息。来自范德比尔特和其他医学院的学生被选入范德比尔特参加为期 12 周的研究体验。我们的目标是 -60% 的参与者来自范德比尔特大学，约 40% 的参与者来自其他美国医学院。每月提供学生津贴。该计划采用传统的导师/角色模型方法。每个学生都会与一位已建立的研究人员相匹配，与他/她一起设计和执行一个研究项目。学生参与者定期会面，参加有关心脏、肺和血管生物学研究当前挑战的系列讲座，与资深科学家互动，并参加社交活动。在夏季研究经历结束时，每位参与者以传统的科学会议形式总结他/她的研究。评估项目、学生满意度、教师满意度和参与者职业选择的机制已经到位。这些结果研究将评估该计划对学生对生物医学研究态度的影响，并鼓励学生选择涉及生物医学研究的职业，特别是在肺和心血管生物学领域。 （摘要完）
