摘要

The goal of this project is to encourage undergraduates to enter careers in prostate cancer research. This project involves BCM faculty presentations at Prairie View A & M University and a 9 week summer prostate cancer research experience at BCM for up to 5 undergraduates/year from PVAMU (3 in 2006; 4 in 2007 and 2008). Participants attended a weekly research discussion group focused on prostate cancer. Students make PowerPoint presentations on their work at the end of the program. The participants are co- registered in the SMART Program at Baylor College of Medicine (www.bcm.tmc.edu/smart) and have access to elements of the SMART Program including a interdisciplinary seminar series, career development activities and career counseling and the SMART GRE Prep Course. All of the four students in the 2008 program gained laboratory skills and learned more about biomedical research, especially prostate cancer research. Students made a total of 12 research presentations (two at national meetings). One student's work provided evidence that CD14+monocytes differentiate to myofibroblast reactive stroma that correlates with prostate cancer. One student won a 1st place research award for her study that identified peptides that might become good antigens for creating a prostate tumor vaccine.
