项目摘要

Project Summary/ Abstract A diverse oral health care workforce of both clinicians and researchers has been repeatedly called for. The absence of such diversity and its relationship to oral health disparities has been recognized as a persistent problem. Further, “the NIH recognizes that achieving diversity in the biomedical research workforce is critical to the full realization of our national research goals and is the best interest of our country”. The long-term goal is a sustainable summer research education program, Research Education in Oral Health Sciences (REOHs), that stimulates trainees and provides mentorship support for students to pursue future training opportunities in oral health research. The overall objectives in this application are to (i) encourage individuals from diverse backgrounds to pursue further studies or careers in oral health research; and (ii) foster a better understanding of biomedical, behavioral and clinical research and its implications. The rationale for this proposed program is that early exposure increases interest and consideration of health science careers. The overall objectives will be pursued through three specific aims: 1) Develop, implement, and evaluate, and sustain a 9-week comprehensive summer program that provides hands-on exposure to research and supports participants’ scientific and career development; 2) Recruit, enroll and retain a cohort of 8-10 high school and undergraduate student participants, annually, that are underrepresented in the biomedical sciences and oral health professions; and 3) Evaluate the effectiveness of the REOHS program. The proposed program will emphasize translational science principles and education of social determinants of health. Ultimately, the proposed summer research education program, REOHS, has the potential to enhance the training of an oral health workforce to meet the nation’s biomedical, behavioral and clinical research needs.

项目概要/摘要人们一再呼吁由牧师和研究人员组成多元化的口腔保健工作人员。这种多样性的缺乏及其与口腔健康差异的关系已被认为是一个问题此外，“美国国立卫生研究院认识到实现生物医学研究的多样性。劳动力对于充分实现我们的国家研究目标至关重要，并且是我们的最大利益长期目标是可持续的夏季研究教育计划，即研究教育。口腔健康科学（REOH），激励学员并为学生提供指导支持寻求口腔健康研究的未来培训机会本申请的总体目标。 (i) 鼓励来自不同背景的个人在口语领域继续深造或从事职业健康研究；(ii) 促进对生物医学、行为和临床研究的更好理解；这一拟议计划的基本原理是，早期接触会增加兴趣和影响。考虑健康科学职业的总体目标将通过三个具体目标来实现。目标： 1) 制定、实施、评估和维持为期 9 周的综合暑期项目，提供实践研究机会并支持参与者的科学和职业发展2) 每年招募、注册并留住 8-10 名高中生和本科生参与者，在生物医学科学和口腔健康专业中代表性不足；以及 3) 评估 REOHS 计划的有效性拟议的计划将强调转化科学。最后，提出了夏季研究的健康社会决定因素的原则和教育。教育计划 REOHS 有潜力加强口腔保健人员的培训，以满足国家的生物医学、行为和临床研究需求。
