Training Systems and Integrative Neuroscience

这是一项竞争性的续签申请，以支持综合管理专业的博士后和博士后培训 纽约大学神经科学中心的神经科学。这项提议旨在继续和 加强成功实施我们的培训计划，重点关注以下四个相互关联的核心领域 研究：学习、记忆、发育和可塑性。拟议的培训计划包括 与纽约大学医学院神经科学和生理学研究生项目合作。我们 争取在5名博士后研究员和2名博士后研究员一级继续提供支持。这批受训人员 要求的主要依据是培养一个具有足够规模的有凝聚力的培训小组的重要性 支持学员从博士后到博士后，从细胞-分子到系统的各个层次的发展 和认知方法，跨项目部门，以及翻译和基础研究之间的。这 增加一名受训人员，重点放在临床/翻译方面。我们提议的培训计划将 在对进步至关重要的神经科学领域为博士后和博士后培训提供中心 了解神经系统的发育和退化，神经系统疾病过程，以及 记忆障碍和心理健康。我们的实习生将有机会成为 世界级科学家从事与学习、记忆、发展和 可塑性。我们已经组建了一个由26名培训人员组成的团队，将提供综合的、协作的 跨越传统学科界限、跨越分析层次和 训练。实习生、三年级或以上博士后研究员和早期博士后研究员 博士毕业后数年，将有机会参加特别研讨会系列，个性化指导，有机会 培养翻译思维，举办研讨会，促进专业技能和学术技能的平衡 对未来的成功很重要。在这次续订中，我们增加了一个特定的博士后培训部分。我们 预计我们的实习生将在该计划中停留1-2年，届时我们预计他们将拥有 获得独立资助或过渡到另一个研究支助机制。在这两种情况下，他们 将得到该计划持续的、高水平的支持。我们寻求建立一个稳步增长的 拥有共同目标和兴趣的科学家，这将推动NIMH在神经研究方面的目标 发育、障碍和精神疾病的机制。

This is a competing renewal application for funds to support pre- and postdoctoral training in Integrative Neuroscience at the Center for Neural Science at New York University. This proposal aims to continue and enhance a successful implementation of our training program focused on four interrelated core areas of investigation: learning, memory, development and plasticity. The proposed training program includes a partnership with the Graduate Program in Neuroscience and Physiology at the NYU School of Medicine. We seek to renew our support at the level of 5 predoctoral and 2 postdoctoral fellows. This number of trainees requested is based primarily on the importance of fostering a cohesive training group of a sufficient size to support trainee development across levels, from pre to post-doctoral and from cellular-molecular to systems and cognitive approaches, across program divisions, and between translational and basic research. This represents an increase of one trainee, with a clinical/translational focus. Our proposed training program will provide a central focus for pre and postdoctoral training in areas of neuroscience critical to advancing knowledge of development and degeneration of the nervous system, neural disease processes, and disorders of memory and mental health. Our trainees will have the opportunity to be a part of a cohort of world class scientists engaged in cutting-edge research related to learning, memory, development and plasticity. We have compiled a group of 26 training faculty that will provide an integrative, collaborative training experience that crosses traditional disciplinary boundaries, spans levels of analysis, and levels of training. The trainees, predoctoral fellows in the third year or higher and postdoctoral fellows in the early years post-PhD, will have access to a special seminar series, individualized mentoring, opportunities to develop translational thinking, and workshops to promote balanced professional and academic skills important for future success. In this renewal, we have added a specific postdoctoral training component. We expect our trainees to remain in the program for 1-2 years, at which time we expect that they will have obtained independent funding or transitioned to another research support mechanism. In either case, they will have a continuing, high-level of support from the program. We seek to build a steadily growing cohort of scientists with shared goals and interests, that will advance the goals of NIMH for research into the neural mechanisms of development, disorders and mental disease.
