Summary The overall objective of the R25 Research Education Program(REP) summer experience is to establish an approach for providing minority students attending USC with the support needed to increase diversity in the field of biomedical science and aging by providing mentorship and research training opportunities for young URM biomedical scientists with unique experiences and perspectives. To accomplish this objective, we will: I) use our already developed and validated innovative strategies to recruit 100 URMs to the different biomedical science disciplines and aging related research experiences at USC. We will attract these students by conducting seminars, workshops, and lectures at the USC campuses throughout the academic year. II) Organize a USC Biomedical Science Forum where 50 URM students from a pool of 100 URMs will be invited for a two-day orientation during the spring semester. These students will visit USC and its biomedical science programs while also obtaining information on the ten-week summer REP. III) Provide a 10-week summer educational mentoring and research opportunity at USC for ten REP students every year for five years. For the summer program, we will,1) match each REP participant with a mentor to initiate the development of an individual development plan(IDP), and organize a weekly mentoring activity, 2) organize professional development workshop training for URMs in aging research, 3) implement a weekly Science/Journal club meeting to discuss publications related to aging research, 4) organize workshop training in professional development to synergize REP students with USC training programs in professional development activities allowing networking with other young colleagues, and 5) provide scientific research for REP students to enhance their research career development in biomedical sciences and promote graduate school aspirations. Beyond the summer REP, we will provide research and mentoring opportunities to continue to synergize REP students with USC training programs. By providing academic support initiatives, including mentoring, professional development activities and training in biomedical science and aging related research opportunities, we will be able to increase diversity in the field of biomedical science and aging related research for young URM biomedical scientists. Continued "mentoring " of REP students will go on until they complete their baccalaureate degree in biomedical science and will even continue finally to their matriculation into graduate programs in biomedical sciences at USC. We expect that 70% of REP students in their senior years will have research experience, evident in publications (manuscripts and conference abstracts). The research experience will prepare them for graduate programs, while the publications will make them competitive for graduate school admission. We plan to increase awareness for at least 60% of URMs, freshman through senior years in different career opportunities in aging research.

概括 R25 研究教育计划 (REP) 暑期体验的总体目标是建立一个 为就读南加州大学的少数族裔学生提供增加该领域多样性所需的支持的方法 通过为年轻的 URM 提供指导和研究培训机会，研究生物医学科学和老龄化 具有独特经验和观点的生物医学科学家。为了实现这一目标，我们将： I) 使用我们的 已经制定并验证了创新策略，以招募 100 名 URM 进入不同的生物医学科学领域 南加州大学的学科和老龄化相关研究经验。我们将通过举办 整个学年在南加州大学校园举办研讨会、讲习班和讲座。 II) 组织 USC 生物医学科学论坛，将邀请 100 名 URM 学生中的 50 名 URM 学生参加为期两天的活动 春季学期的迎新活动。这些学生将参观南加州大学及其生物医学科学项目，同时 还获取有关为期十周的夏季 REP 的信息。 III) 提供为期10周的暑期教育指导 每年为 10 名 REP 学生提供南加州大学的研究机会，为期五年。对于暑期项目，我们 将，1) 为每个 REP 参与者匹配一位导师，以启动个人发展 计划（IDP），并组织每周的指导活动，2）组织专业发展研讨会培训 老龄化研究中的 URM，3) 每周召开一次科学/期刊俱乐部会议，讨论相关出版物 老龄化研究，4) 组织专业发展研讨会培训，使 REP 学生与 南加州大学的专业发展活动培训计划允许与其他年轻同事建立联系， 5）为REP学生提供科学研究，以促进他们在生物医学领域的研究职业发展 科学并促进研究生院的愿望。除了夏季 REP 之外，我们还将提供研究和 继续使 REP 学生与南加州大学培训计划协同增效的指导机会。通过提供 学术支持举措，包括指导、专业发展活动和生物医学培训 科学和衰老相关的研究机会，我们将能够增加生物医学领域的多样性 为年轻的 URM 生物医学科学家提供科学和衰老相关的研究。持续“指导”REP学生 将继续下去，直到他们完成生物医学科学学士学位，甚至最终继续 他们被南加州大学生物医学科学研究生项目录取。我们预计 70% 的 REP 学生 在高年级时将拥有研究经验，这些经验在出版物（手稿和会议）中得到体现 摘要）。研究经验将为他们的研究生课程做好准备，而出版物将使他们 他们在研究生入学方面具有竞争力。我们计划提高至少 60% URM 的意识， 从大一到大四，在衰老研究方面有不同的职业机会。
