PROJECT SUMMARY /ABSTRACT The Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) has a longstanding commitment to the training of medical students in academic medicine and has supported the Student Research Program in Academic Medicine (SRPAM) for 28 years. This application is a competitive renewal of the T35 training grant (Short-Term Training in Biomedical Sciences) awarded to IUSM in 2011 and that greatly contributed to the consolidation and expansion of the program. The purpose of the SPRAM is to provide a structured research environment that engages medical students' interest in biomedical research, creating opportunities for basic and translational research experience, and education in research ethics. The main objective of the program is to serve as a portal to train and recruit physician-scientists. Every year ~40 medical students with strong academic credentials are selected for the SPRAM from a pool of 80-100 applicants, and are paired with highly qualified faculty mentors for 12-week summer research internships with accompanying lecture series focused on research communication, ethics, translational research and career development. The current application seeks support to enroll 32 students/year in the SPRAM (including 8 additional positions) to conduct basic and translational research within the basic and clinical departments and centers at IUSM. The combined support of the T35, Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute, IU Simon Cancer Center and Center of Excellence in Molecular Hematology will allow the enrollment of a higher number of students from the pool of meritorious applicants. The program is designed to: a) increase student awareness to the value of doing biomedical research, challenging them to take on independent projects, and; b) strongly support students interested in careers in academic medicine by providing access to opportunities in the MD/PhD program, and assistance with research fellowship applications to HHMI and NIH. Trainees engage in mentored research experience in areas that reflect the school's strength and international reputation in hematopoiesis, immunity, pulmonary and cardiovascular biology, cancer, diabetes and medical informatics. The strengths of our program are: i) a cadre of >100 selected, successful mentors including physician-scientists, with extramural funding, outstanding training records and solid experience with short-term trainees; ii) an outstanding scientific environment with intense interdisciplinary spirit and access to cutting-edge technologies and excellent resources; iii) a supportive community providing students with opportunities for leadership and mentoring; iv) integration with the medical school curriculum, and; v) an unequivocal commitment from the IUSM leadership. The long term goal of the program is to increase the number of physician-scientists nationally by exposing students in their early years of medical education to hypothesis-driven research focused on the molecular and cellular basis of disease and their potential for clinical translation.

项目概要/摘要 印第安纳大学医学院 (IUSM) 长期致力于医学培训 学术医学学生，并支持学术医学学生研究计划 (SRPAM) 28 年。此申请是 T35 培训补助金（短期培训）的竞争性更新 2011 年，IUSM 获得了生物医学科学博士学位，这极大地促进了整合和 计划的扩展。 SPRAM 的目的是提供一个结构化的研究环境， 激发医学生对生物医学研究的兴趣，为基础和转化创造机会 研究经验和研究伦理教育。该计划的主要目标是作为 培训和招募医师科学家的门户。每年约40名学术实力雄厚的医学生 SPRAM 证书是从 80-100 名申请者中挑选出来的，并与高素质的人员配对 教师导师进行为期 12 周的暑期研究实习，并附有系列讲座，重点关注 研究交流、伦理、转化研究和职业发展。目前的申请寻求 支持每年在 SPRAM 招收 32 名学生（包括 8 个额外职位），以开展基础和 IUSM 基础和临床部门和中心的转化研究。综合支持 T35、临床​​和转化科学研究所、印第安纳大学西蒙癌症中心和卓越中心 分子血液学将允许从优秀学生中招收更多数量的学生 申请人。该计划旨在：a）提高学生对生物医学价值的认识 研究，挑战他们承担独立项目，以及； b) 大力支持有兴趣的学生 通过提供医学博士/博士项目的机会和援助来从事学术医学职业 向 HHMI 和 NIH 申请研究奖学金。受训者参与指导研究经验 反映学校在造血、免疫、肺脏等方面的实力和国际声誉的领域 心血管生物学、癌症、糖尿病和医学信息学。我们计划的优势是： i) 干部 > 100 名精选的成功导师，包括医师科学家，拥有校外资助，杰出 短期学员的培训记录和丰富经验； ii) 杰出的科学环境 强烈的跨学科精神以及获取尖端技术和优质资源的能力； iii) 支持性 社区为学生提供领导和指导的机会； iv) 与医疗的结合 学校课程，以及； v) IUSM 领导层的明确承诺。该组织的长期目标 该计划的目的是通过让学生在早期接触医学科学家，以增加全国医师科学家的数量。 医学教育到以假设为驱动的研究，重点关注疾病的分子和细胞基础 他们的临床转化潜力。
