During the A-PReP program, I will build the base for clinical pharmacology and translational science research including scientific skills as well as critical thinking. I hope I can establish the positive relationship with experienced researchers and talented professional students. I expect to present the findings at the professional conference, I also seek opportunity for publication. Additionally, I hope my mentor could provide me with further training after this summer program.
War creates all kinds of hardships on everyone involved whether it is overseas on the front line or right in our own backyard. During World War II one hardship faced in the United States was the lack of laborers to work the land and other taxing jobs here in the United States. The solution, bring migrant workers from Mexico to complete the work; otherwise known as the Bracero Program. What is the American and Mexican history leading up to the Bracero program? Were these workers paid fair, were they treated fair, and did they benefit in the long term?
My immediate goal after graduation is to prepare myself in the strongest way possible for successful entry and progression in a MD/PhD program. After exploring the Case Western Reserve University website, I firmly believe that the PREP program will equip me with all the tools I need to flourish in the field of medical science. The mentors in the PREP program are all amazing scientists and after reading a few of the goals of their labs, I aspire to develop the same dedication, knowledge, and achievement. I currently want to know more about how genetics is being applied to medical research, and I was especially elated to read of the work taking place in Dr. Mark Jackson’s lab. The creation of a genetically engineered breast cancer model being used to learn more about tumor suppressor genes and their interaction with oncogenes is amazing to me. I want to learn more about the process of creating similar models and using it to answer highly relevant questions. I’m also very curious about the VBIM strategy that is being used and developed to identify new genetic elements important to cancer formation. It is a technique that I would love the opportunity to better understand and utilize through the PREP program.
I believe ASMSA is the right place for me to continue my studies because I believe that I will excel there. I am interested in learning some things that my current school does not offer as a course. ASMSA will offer me more opportunities to do things outside of school and in school that will prepare me for my time in college and after college. I want to be able to get up for school and be excited about what I will be doing that day, and I believe that ASMSA will provide me with this opportunity. I think that the school is the right fit for me and my learning style because I feel as if I need to be more advanced and learning things that I cannot at my current school. ASMSA will help me improve my skills and help me develop new ones in the two years that I will attend. I believe that this school will help me grow academically and socially.
It is a pleasure for me to write for admission into the AAEP program offered at your esteemed institution. When I was little, I met many teachers who constantly inspired and motivated me. Thus, I made the important life decision of becoming an educator in order to ensure that many more pillars of tomorrow can receive the attention, care, and quality education they deserve. I have not regretted my decision since then. After I graduated from the University of Education, I passed the highly competitive and challenging teacher qualification exam in my country with flying colors and soon began my prestigious career as an art teacher serving the needs of children in junior high schools nationwide. Teachers shoulder the responsibility of educating
Translational research is a complex subject that can often be misunderstood by many people. The term can be defined as transcribing research data into clinical practice (Mulnard, 2011). Translational research is frequently summarized with the phrase “bench-to-bedside,” which essentially means that analytics from the research bench are tested and applied to new pharmaceuticals and devices for patients (Mulnard, 2011). Ultimately, the research stimulates the APRN to evaluate the learned science and cultivate new solutions to problems.
I would say that this question is portrayed to target parents with children that have reading disabilities. Another potential audience would be a teacher, because it would be of great information for them to learn about the ways that they can contribute in helping kids with reading disabilities.
Thank you for the opportunity of allowing me to be a finalist for the Daniel’s Fund Scholarship. I am a high school senior enrolled as a concurrent enrollment student at the Community College of Aurora through my high school, Vista Academy. I am also a first generation prospective college student with a Mexican background. Neither of my parents went to college, though, I know in my heart I need to earn a college degree; they are my motivation. I also know in my heart that I will be a great Daniel’s Fund Scholar because I possess maturity, strength of character, leadership, a well rounded personality in one way, shape, or manner.
For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be recognized for my exceptional behavior that is displayed in everything I do. The National Honors Society can benefit me in accomplishing that goal. I enjoy learning new things daily, and applying it to my own life. I am doing extremely well in all subjects, but apart from classes, I am actively involved in school activities. For instance, I participate in cheerleading, basketball, softball, Heroes and Cool Kids and student council. The purpose of participating in these activities is to succeed. In order to succeed, I feel one must be focused, confident, responsible, creative, dedicated, and hardworking. These characteristics lead me to be successful and to dedicate myself to my academics.
Preparing early for your future and the rest of you're life isn’t bad. It makes you have set goals and accomplishments you want to make. If you plan ahead for college, and get to college you won’t have the fear of not knowing what to do next. I personally feel that starting early for college would have helped me immensely in what I want to do in the future. Now I’m in a rush to get all my college applications done and turned in and I might not even make it into the college that I would like because my grades are destroying my chances to go.
Personal Statement I am interested in pursuing a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology at Florida State University where I can develop my research in understanding substance use disorders (SUDs). According to Grant et al. (2016) , SUDs are common, highly comorbid, and disabling disorders that often go untreated in the United States. Although in the last several decades there has been an abundance of research conducted and significant progress has been made, there are still significant limitations in our knowledge in understanding and treating SUDs (Sutker & Adams, 2001).
I have an diligent passion for assisting and supporting others of different cultures and heritages. I have volunteered on countless community and school events during the past two years. Currently, I contain more than 120 hours of community service and school service. In my school, New Tech High, we have a graduation requirement where the student must have completed 20 hours of community service and 10 hours of school service. I have exceeded my school hours by 50 hours and a half, while I overly exceeded my community hours by more than 71 hours. This has affected my outlook by providing me more opportunities as well as being noticed by the community. Currently,in my senior year, I have been helping coordinate event opportunities for the students
In the early 1990‘s, translational research appeared in mainly cancer-related studies. More recently, the National Institute of Health (NIH) definition of translational research has been cited as the process of applying discoveries generated during research in the laboratory, and in preclinical studies, to the development of trials and studies in humans; and the second area of translation concerns research aimed at enhancing the adoption of best practices in the community with cost-effectiveness of prevention and treatment strategies ( Rubio, et al., 2010). Clinical & Translational Science Institute (n.d.) indicated there are four steps of translational research that may quicken the transition from research to the clinicians by improving multidisciplinary collaboration and communication: Applies new knowledge generated in the laboratory to new methods that can be tested on humans; takes the results of the above human studies and refines them for use in daily clinical practice; takes these practices beyond
Two aspects contribute to the proper behavior of the students that are eating at the cafeteria:
The purpose of our evaluation is to assess if the girls who participate in the GRL program, apply the skills and knowledge they acquire upon completion of the program. To answer this question, we will use a pre-experimental research design consisting of pre-test and post-test surveys, as well as a post-test focus group for more in depth narratives. The purpose of the pre-test and the post-test is to ascertain the types of behaviors and habits the girls have prior to their participation in the GRL program and see how these change after the 16-week program.
