The objective of the program is to provide undergraduate students and research- oriented medical students from diverse, underrepresented backgrounds with a short- term, intensive biomedical laboratory research experience for 8-10 weeks during the summer at the University of Pennsylvania. The long-term aim of the program is to increase the pool of underrepresented students committed to careers in cardiovascular, pulmonary, and hematologic research. Training is provided by a core group of 51 trainers who have extensive experience as mentors to trainees at all levels and whose research interests relate to aspects of the heart, lung, and blood, as well as by a secondary group of more than 50 additional prospective mentors who conduct NHLBI sponsored research. Each trainee devotes approximately 90% of his or her time to hands-on laboratory research, experimental design, data interpretation, directed readings, lab meetings, and journal clubs. Trainees participate in a scientific seminar series presented by University of Pennsylvania faculty, receive supplemental training in academically relevant areas, including scientific presentation skills and the responsible conduct of research, and are provided with a variety of optional peer-networking and career-development activities and workshops. Trainees present their work in at least one formal setting at the end of the program and are encouraged to continue their association with the laboratory; undergraduates may return for a second summer research experience. This proposal seeks to integrate training that was formerly provided separately, via two different NHLBI grants: R25-HL084665 (formerly T35- HL007719) was originally established in 1991 for research-oriented medical students in the School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and T35-HL007789 was established in 1993 for undergraduates from a geographically and culturally diverse array of colleges and universities who come to the University of Pennsylvania for the summer. It is expected that the integration of these programs will build on existing strengths and result in an enriched trainee experience.

该计划的目的是为来自不同，代表性不足的背景的本科生和研究生的医学生提供短期，密集的生物医学实验室研究经验，期间在夏季在宾夕法尼亚大学的夏季为期8-10周。该计划的长期目的是增加致力于心血管，肺和血液学研究职业的代表性不足的学生。培训是由51名培训师组成的核心小组提供的，他们在各个层面上都有广泛的导师，其研究兴趣与心脏，肺和血液的各个方面有关，以及由50多名超过50名其他前瞻性导师组成的中级群体，他们进行NHLBI赞助了NHLBI赞助的研究。每个学员将大约90％的时间用于实验室研究，实验设计，数据解释，定向阅读，实验室会议和期刊俱乐部。受训者参加了宾夕法尼亚大学教职员工提出的科学研讨会系列，在学术上相关领域接受补充培训，包括科学演示技巧和负责任的研究，并提供了各种可选的PEER网络网络网络和职业发展和职业发展活动和研讨会。学员在计划结束时至少在一个正式环境中介绍他们的工作，并鼓励继续与实验室联系；本科生可能会返回第二次夏季研究经验。该提案旨在通过两种不同的NHLBI赠款进行整合培训：R25-HL084665（以前是T35-HL007719）于1991年成立，最初是在宾夕法尼亚大学和T35-HLLALLECHIDENDERIDEN of STURADD的1993年建立了针对医学研究的研究学院的，该学院的1993年是在1993年建立的。夏季来到宾夕法尼亚大学的各种各样的学院和大学。预计这些计划的整合将基于现有优势，并带来丰富的实习生体验。
