Project Summary/ Abstract The Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) Medical Student Training in Aging and Injury Research is a 10- 12-week summer research training program with the goal of training 12 medical students per year in aging and injury prevention research during the summer between their first and second years. The long-term goal is to increase the pool of students who will pursue and apply aging research, with an emphasis on the risks for and impact of injury through the life stages. The experience focuses on risk factors and outcomes associated with injury, and research aimed at improving safety, health and quality of life for older individuals. Specific objectives are to: 1) provide early exposure to injury research at a critical time in medical students’ career decision-making; 2) increase medical student knowledge regarding current investigative frontiers in injury prevention, treatment and policy; 3) train students to apply a “geriatrics approach” in their research, therapy and injury control efforts, emphasizing the special risks, needs and circumstances of the elderly; and 4) to stimulate and sustain medical students’ interest in research, injury control and aging by providing on- going connection to the scientific community and future research pursuits throughout medical school training. Trainees collaborate with experienced research faculty and research teams on aging research and injury- related projects relevant to aging and the aged, such as falls prevention, neuromuscular and cognitive function, depression/ suicide, toxicology, patient safety, chronic disease management and quality of life after trauma. Faculty mentors bring expertise across the spectrum of Translational Science, from the laboratory to clinical, community-based, and population health research, making it unique among MCW’s funded research training programs. Students will participate in enrichment activities including: 1) seminars offered to all summer research students, including training in ethical conduct in research, career development and presentation skills; 2) weekly core seminars on injury and injury prevention across the lifespan, with attention to the special needs and considerations of the elderly, including Falls, Abuse, Poisonings, the System of Care for trauma; 3) clinical experiences related to injury prevention, such as home safety and functional assessments, 4) presentation of their work at an Annual Medical Student Research Poster Day; and 5) continued research through on-going mentorship, our required longitudinal Scholarly Pathways program, and an optional Research Honors track. The program builds on a highly successful institutional summer research program infrastructure, and strong collaborations among MCW’s Comprehensive Injury Center and Center for Advancement of Population Science, the Medicine Division of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, Departments of Family and Community Medicine, Emergency Medicine and Surgery, and affiliated faculty from basic, social and clinical sciences to address injury prevention at every level, in a rich, collaborative learning environment.

项目概要/摘要 威斯康星医学院 (MCW) 医学生衰老和损伤研究培训是一个 10- 为期 12 周的暑期研究培训计划，目标是每年培训 12 名医学生进行老龄化研究 长期目标是在第一年和第二年的夏季进行伤害预防研究。 增加从事和应用衰老研究的学生人数，重点关注衰老研究的风险 以及伤害在整个生命阶段的影响。经验重点关注相关的风险因素和结果。 以及旨在改善老年人安全、健康和生活质量的研究。 具体目标是：1）让医学生在关键时刻尽早接触伤害研究。 职业决策；2）增加医学生对当前研究前沿的了解 伤害预防、治疗和政策；3）培训学生在研究中应用“老年医学方法”， 治疗和伤害控制工作，强调老年人的特殊风险、需求和情况； 4）通过提供以下课程来激发和维持医学生对研究、伤害控制和老龄化的兴趣 在整个医学院培训过程中与科学界和未来的研究追求保持联系。 学员与经验丰富的研究人员和研究团队合作进行衰老研究和损伤- 与老龄化和老年人相关的项目，例如跌倒预防、神经肌肉和认知 功能、抑郁/自杀、毒理学、患者安全、慢性病管理和质量 创伤后的生活导师带来了转化科学领域的专业知识。 实验室到临床、社区和人口健康研究，使其在 MCW 中独一无二 资助的研究培训项目。学生将参加丰富的活动，包括：1）研讨会。 向所有暑期研究生提供，包括研究道德行为、职业发展方面的培训 和演讲技巧；2) 每周举办关于伤害和整个生命周期伤害预防的核心研讨会， 关注老年人的特殊需求和考虑，包括跌倒、虐待、中毒、系统 创伤护理；3）与伤害预防相关的临床经验，例如家庭安全和功能 评估，4）在年度医学生研究海报日展示他们的工作；5） 通过持续的指导、我们所需的纵向学术途径计划继续研究，以及 可选的研究荣誉课程。 该计划建立在非常成功的机构夏季研究计划基础设施和强大的 MCW 综合伤害中心和人口进步中心之间的合作 科学、老年病学和姑息医学医学部、家庭和社区部门 医学、急诊医学和外科以及从基础科学、社会科学和临床科学到 在丰富的协作学习环境中解决各个层面的伤害预防问题。
