项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary objective of the Summer Research Training in Aging for Medical Students grant is to increase the number of physicians who choose to become clinician researchers in aging. Over the next three decades the number of adults age 65 and older in the U.S. is projected to double from 35 million in 2000 to 70 million with minority elders increasing from approximately 16% to 33%. Meeting the health care needs of an aging and culturally diverse population is important and will require training a clinician researcher workforce that is familiar with the research skills and methods necessary to develop strategies to reduce morbidity in all older adults. The specific aims of the grant are to 1) provide culturally diverse medical students with exposure to geriatric medicine and gerontological research through a didactic, clinical, and research experience, 2) measure the productivity of the medical students who participate in the summer training experience e via the number of abstracts, presentations and publications and 3) ascertain the impact of the program on medical students career choices. The medical students will have an 8 to 12 week experience at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine Division of Geriatric Medicine and Centers on Aging and Health. The didactic component consists of lectures and seminars in the following topics; introduction to epidemiology and biostatistics, how to develop a research question, how to find a mentor, responsible conduct of research, demographics of aging, and the biology of frailty. The clinical component (e.g., rehabilitation and ambulatory medicine) allows students to see the practical applications of their research questions. In the research component, the students will complete projects in the following aging areas: basic science, clinical and health services research. The research topics are as follows; 1) diabetes & obesity 2) frailty 3)pulmonary disease 4) physical activity 5) quality of life 6) health disparities and 7) cost of health care services. By reaching medical students early in their career we may be able to increase the number of clinician researchers in aging.

描述（由申请人提供）：医学生夏季老龄化研究培训资助的主要目标是增加选择成为老龄化临床研究人员的医生数量。未来三十年，美国 65 岁及以上的成年人数量预计将增加一倍，从 2000 年的 3500 万增至 7000 万，其中少数族裔老年人的比例将从约 16% 增至 33%。满足老龄化和文化多元化人口的医疗保健需求非常重要，需要培训临床医生研究人员，熟悉制定降低所有老年人发病率的策略所需的研究技能和方法。该赠款的具体目的是 1) 通过教学、临床和研究经验，为具有不同文化背景的医学生提供老年医学和老年学研究的机会，2) 衡量参加暑期培训的医学生的生产力通过摘要、演示文稿和出版物的数量，以及 3) 确定该项目对医学生职业选择的影响。医学生将在约翰·霍普金斯大学医学院老年医学部和老龄化与健康中心进行为期 8 至 12 周的实习。教学部分包括以下主题的讲座和研讨会；流行病学和生物统计学简介，如何提出研究问题，如何寻找导师，负责任的研究行为，老龄化人口统计学以及衰弱生物学。临床部分（例如康复和门诊医学）使学生能够看到他们的研究问题的实际应用。在研究部分，学生将完成以下老龄化领域的项目：基础科学、临床和健康服务研究。研究课题如下； 1) 糖尿病和肥胖 2) 虚弱 3) 肺部疾病 4) 体力活动 5) 生活质量 6) 健康差异 7) 医疗保健服务成本。通过在医学生职业生涯的早期接触他们，我们也许能够增加老龄化领域临床研究人员的数量。
