The specific aim of the outreach and training component of the Admin Core is to expand programs to meet the training and mentoring needs of investigators, fellows, and students. The outreach and research training component enhances biomedical research, research training and student interaction by organizing and administering several major programs. These programs include hands-on research short courses, mentored summer research fellowships, and the Maine Biological and Medical Sciences Symposium, as well as initiatives to build the research skills of K12 students. During this grant year, the outreach and training component organized three short courses (two of them completely new this year), awarded six summer research fellowships to undergraduate and high school students, and organized one research symposium.
