PROJECT SUMMARY Cancer has been a major focus of biomedical research since the war on cancer began with the National Cancer Act of 1971. Despite this focus, nearly 8 million people die of cancer each year, worldwide. To help ensure that the nations’ biomedical, clinical, and behavioral cancer research workforce remains strong, we propose the development of a Cancer-focused Summer Undergraduate Research (CanSUR) Program, to recruit highly motivated undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds and foster their excitement for a career in cancer research. The CanSUR program will support 32 undergraduate scholars each year, recruited from regional and national colleges/universities for a 10-week period, to participate in a cancer research experience with members of the Case Comprehensive Cancer Center (Case CCC). Key objectives of the CanSUR Program are to: (1) provide each scholar with a summer cancer research experience in a Case CCC members lab; (2) foster an understanding of biomedical, cancer research career opportunities and (3) providing scientific enrichment and professional skills curriculum to help prepare them for the next step in a cancer research focused career. Four major components have been developed to meet these objectives, including an Intensive Week 1 Cancer Immersion Workshop, a series of interactive cancer research lectures on the fundamentals of cancer biology, current cancer therapies, cancer research techniques, cancer career paths and innovative 3-dimensional cancer education modules (called the HoloLens). We propose a novel 2- tier mentorship structure that includes both the primary mentor (lab leader), and a junior mentor, which will be the person in charge of the day-to-day training of the CanSUR scholar within the research environment. Beyond their individual research experience, we have developed a series of Scientific Enrichment components which address important issues in cancer research, such as developing professional habits, effective communication strategies, and an appreciation of how cancer impacts individuals and their families (using talks by patient advocates). Numerous cancer-focused career paths will be introduced, and guidance about how to prepare for the next step of a specific career path will be provided by graduate and medical school admissions directors, professionals who have achieved their cancer-related career goals, and current trainees. Given the importance of our objectives, we have been pledged significant institutional support and have 82 faculty and institutional leaders who focus on cancer education prepared to recruit and train outstanding undergraduates in this summer program. As such, we are well-positioned to convert highly-motivated undergraduates into the nation’s next cancer research workforce.

项目摘要 癌症一直是生物医学研究的主要重点 1971年的癌症法。尽管这一重点是全世界的近800万人 确保国家的生物医学，临床和行为癌症研究人员保持强大，我们 提出开发一个由癌症的夏季地下研究（CANSUR）计划，以 招募来自各种背景的高度积极进取的地下学生，并促进他们的兴奋 癌症研究的职业。 从区域和国家学院/大学工作10周，参加癌症研究 与案例综合癌症中心的成员（案例CCC）的经验。 CANSUR计划是：（1）在CCC中为每个学者提供夏季癌症研究经验 会员实验室；（2）促进生物医学，癌症研究职业机会 提供科学丰富和专业技能课程，以帮助准备迈 以癌症研究为重点的职业。 包括一个密集的第1周癌症浸入研讨会，这是一系列互动癌症研究讲座 关于癌症生物学，当前癌症疗法，癌症癌症技术，癌症职业的基础知识 路径和创新的三维癌症教育模块（称为Hololens）。 包括主要导师（实验室负责人）和初级导师在内的级别指导结构 负责研究环境中罐头学校日常培训的人。 除了个人研究经验之外，我们还开发了一系列科学的富集组件 涉及癌症研究中重要的ISS，例如养成专业习惯，有效 沟通策略，并欣赏如何加以承受个人及其家人（使用谈话） 由患者提倡）。 为特定护理路径的TTEP做准备，将由研究生和医学院录取 导演，专业人士的专业人士Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho 目标的重要性，我们得到了大量的临床支持，并拥有82位教职员工， 专注于癌症教育准备招募和培训杰出地下的癌症教育的领导者 这个夏天的节目。 国家的下一个癌症研究人员。
