项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Summer Undergraduate Program in Emory Renal Research (SUPERR) will promote an appreciation for the study of kidney, urology, and hematologic (KUH) diseases among undergraduate students who are interested in furthering their scientific research and could be encouraged to pursue a career in biomedical scientific research. Early exposure of undergraduate researchers to these exciting areas of study will give promising students first-hand experience in laboratory methods to answer questions that directly affect human health and disease. Our goal is to foster sustained interest in KUH diseases, thereby increasing the number of students applying to PhD and MD/PhD programs, and increasing the cadre of scientists in the biomedical workforce studying these topics in the future. SUPERR will expose undergraduate students to current questions in KUH diseases that are being investigated by NIDDK supported investigators at Emory University. Following a national recruitment, selected students will participate in a 12-week didactic and laboratory-based experiential program on our Atlanta campus to advance their knowledge of nephrology, urology, and hematology research through laboratory experimentation, clinical research, career development activities, responsible conduct in research training, and opportunities to present and share their research. Specific targeted skills will include data acquisition, analysis and interpretation, and scientific presentation. The culmination of the 12-week training will be participation at the NIDDK sponsored Summer Student Research Symposium in Bethesda. Our overall objective is to train the next generation of scientists and physician-scientists in nephrology, urology, or hematology research. Specific Aim 1 is to establish an undergraduate program that garners interest in kidney, urology, and hematologic diseases. Specific Aim 2 is to promote interest in kidney, urology, and hematology disease research among women and underrepresented minorities. Specific Aim 3 is to increase undergraduate enrollment into PhD and MD/PhD programs that excel in nephrology, urology, or hematology research.

描述（由申请人提供）：Emory肾脏研究（SUPERR）的夏季本科课程将促进对肾脏，泌尿外科和血液学（KUH）疾病的研究的赞赏，这些本科生中有兴趣进一步发展其科学研究，并可以鼓励从事生物科学研究的职业。本科研究人员早期接触这些令人兴奋的研究领域将为有前途的学生提供实验室方法的第一手经验，以回答直接影响人类健康和疾病的问题。我们的目标是促进对KUH疾病的持续兴趣，从而增加申请博士学位和MD/PHD计划的学生人数，并增加生物医学劳动力中科学家干部在未来研究这些主题的学生。 SUPERR将使本科生接触到NIDDK支持埃默里大学（Emory University）的研究人员正在调查的KUH疾病中的当前问题。经过全国招募后，选定的学生将通过实验室实验，临床研究，职业发展活动，负责任的研究培训以及提出和分享研究和分享研究的研究，将参加我们亚特兰大校园的12周教学和实验室体验计划，以提高他们对肾脏科学，泌尿外科和血液学研究的了解。特定的目标技能将包括数据获取，分析和解释以及科学介绍。为期12周的培训的高潮将参加贝塞斯达的NIDDK赞助的夏季学生研究研讨会。我们的总体目标是培训下一代科学家和医师科学家在肾脏病，泌尿外科或血液学研究中。具体目的1是建立一个对肾脏，泌尿外科和血液学疾病的兴趣的本科课程。具体目的2是促进妇女和代表性不足的少数民族对肾脏，泌尿外科和血液学疾病研究的兴趣。具体目的3是将本科入学率增加在肾脏学，泌尿科或血液学研究方面表现出色的博士学位和MD/PHD计划。
