项目摘要
This multidisciplinary IGERT program will train graduate students in areas at the interface of evolutionary biology, functional genomics, and computational biology in a way that will enable them to collaborate productively across traditional disciplinary boundaries. The emerging fields of comparative and functional genomics will reshape biological research in the next twenty years and have a profound impact on medicine and human health, agriculture, engineering, and our understanding of the origin of life and the relationships among living organisms. Research in these emerging disciplines requires the coordinated interaction of scientists with diverse backgrounds in evolution, molecular biology, and computer science, yet current departmental boundaries at most universities do not foster interactions among these areas. The comprehensive IGERT training plan at the University of Arizona is intended to meet these challenges. This program includes advising, research rotations and colloquia, two novel multidisciplinary courses that engage students in hands-on problem solving, additional lecture and laboratory courses, training in ethics, a monthly discussion group, opportunities to interact with visiting scientists, bi-annual mini-symposia, opportunities to mentor undergraduates in research, and offsite internships at other academic institutions or at leading genomics companies. Finally, the training plan includes a strategy to recruit both minority undergraduate and graduate students into science, drawing on the Hispanic and Native American populations in Arizona. Some of the proposed training initiatives build on existing structures; others are entirely new. The University of Arizona is particularly well suited for this training program because of existing strengths in evolution, functional genomics, and computation, a strong graduate program, and an institutional commitment to interdisciplinary programs. Moreover, the individual participants in this program have a long track record of success in training students and a commitment to multidisciplinary collaborations. The impact of the proposed training program uniting three research areas will be to equip the next generation of biologists with the tools to tackle the challenges of genome-scale research.IGERT is an NSF-wide program intended to meet the challenges of educating Ph.D. scientists and engineers with the multidisciplinary backgrounds and the technical, professional, and personal skills needed for the career demands of the future. The program is intended to catalyze a cultural change in graduate education by establishing new, innovative models for graduate education and training in a fertile environment for collaborative research that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries. In the fourth year of the program, awards are being made to twenty-two institutions for programs that collectively span all areas of science and engineering supported by NSF. The intellectual foci of this specific award reside in the Directorates for Biological Sciences; Engineering; Computer and Information Science and Engineering; and Education and Human Resources.
这个多学科 IGERT 项目将在进化生物学、功能基因组学和计算生物学交叉领域对研究生进行培训,使他们能够跨越传统学科界限进行富有成效的合作。 比较和功能基因组学的新兴领域将重塑未来二十年的生物学研究,并对医学和人类健康、农业、工程以及我们对生命起源和生物体之间关系的理解产生深远影响。 这些新兴学科的研究需要具有进化论、分子生物学和计算机科学等不同背景的科学家的协调互动,但大多数大学目前的院系边界并没有促进这些领域之间的互动。 亚利桑那大学综合 IGERT 培训计划旨在应对这些挑战。 该项目包括咨询、研究轮转和座谈会、两门新颖的多学科课程(让学生动手解决问题)、额外的讲座和实验室课程、道德培训、每月一次的讨论小组、与访问科学家互动的机会、每两年一次的小型研讨会、指导本科生进行研究的机会,以及在其他学术机构或领先基因组学公司的异地实习。最后,培训计划包括一项招募少数族裔本科生和研究生进入科学领域的战略,借鉴亚利桑那州的西班牙裔和美洲原住民人口。一些拟议的培训举措以现有结构为基础;其他的则是全新的。 亚利桑那大学特别适合该培训项目,因为其在进化、功能基因组学和计算方面的现有优势、强大的研究生项目以及对跨学科项目的机构承诺。 此外,该项目的个人参与者在培训学生方面拥有长期的成功记录,并致力于多学科合作。 拟议的联合三个研究领域的培训计划的影响将为下一代生物学家配备应对基因组规模研究挑战的工具。IGERT 是一项 NSF 范围内的计划,旨在应对博士生教育的挑战。具有多学科背景以及未来职业需求所需的技术、专业和个人技能的科学家和工程师。该计划旨在通过在超越传统学科界限的合作研究的肥沃环境中建立新的、创新的研究生教育和培训模式,来促进研究生教育的文化变革。在该计划的第四年,共有 22 个机构因 NSF 支持的科学和工程所有领域的项目而获奖。该奖项的智力重点属于生物科学理事会;工程;计算机与信息科学与工程;以及教育和人力资源。
