项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant: With this application we request a 5-year renewal of our Cancer Research Experiences for Students Summer Internship Program at the Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Alabama at Birmingham. In its first 5 summers (1999-2003) the CARES Program has supported 158 excellent students who undertook 129 distinct cancer research projects. These students have made major contributions to the cancer research conducted at the CCC, while they gained invaluable research experience. The long-term goal of CARES is to stimulate students accepted by UAB for a graduate degree in Medicine, Public Health, Dentistry, or Graduate Nursing, to pursue careers in cancer research. We propose to recruit 200 students ("CARES Interns") over the next 5 years (2004-2008) to undertake internships lasting from 8 to 16 weeks. Minority recruiting, which has been very successful to date, will again be emphasized. Interns will receive a locally competitive stipend and limited research funding. The "CARES Preceptors" will again be drawn from 323 CCC faculty members currently engaged in over 400 funded research grants in 9 programmatic areas, including basic sciences, translational research, prevention and control, and clinical care. A novel and widely applicable web-based approach will be used to match Interns to the most appropriate CARES projects and Preceptors available, in light of the background and career interests of the Intern and the demands of the project. Interns will attend the "CARES Career Development Seminars" to stimulate their pursuit of a cancer research career, and to give them an opportunity to present their summer research findings. Interns will be encouraged to submit abstracts of their work for presentation at the CCC's Annual Research Retreat and at regional and national meetings. All aspects of the CaRES Program will be rigorously evaluated so that concerns can be identified quickly, achievements can be documented, and further improvements can be made. Long-term follow-up of CARES alumni is proposed. The CaRES Interns will acquire research experience and become familiar with the education and training needed to begin a cancer research career.

描述（由申请人提供：在此申请中，我们要求在阿拉巴马大学综合癌症中心为学生暑期实习计划的癌症研究经验进行5年更新。在其第一个5个夏季（1999-2003）中，护理计划支持158名优秀的学生，他们为129个不同的癌症研究项目提供了重大的贡献。这些癌症研究对癌症研究进行了贡献，他们对癌症的研究进行了贡献。兴趣刺激UAB接受医学，公共卫生，牙科或研究生护理的学位，我们建议在未来5年（2004-2008）招募200名学生（2004-2008）的实习生中，我们将在8至16周中竞争。有限的研究资金。 “ Cares Chupeptors”将再次来自323名CCC教职员工，目前在9个程序化领域中从事400多个资助的研究补助金，包括基础科学，翻译研究，预防和控制以及临床护理。鉴于实习生的背景和职业兴趣以及项目的要求，一种新颖且基于网络的方法将用于将实习生与可用的最合适的关怀项目和受体相匹配。实习生将参加“关心职业发展研讨会”，以刺激他们对癌症研究职业的追求，并为他们提供机会展示夏季研究结果。将鼓励实习生在CCC的年度研究务虚会以及区域和国家会议上提交其工作摘要。 Cares计划的所有方面都将进行严格评估，以便可以快速确定关注，可以记录成就，并可以进一步改进。提出了CARES校友的长期随访。 Cares Interns将获得研究经验，并熟悉开始癌症研究职业所需的教育和培训。
