NC State Chemistry of Life Training Program (CLTP)

项目摘要 化学原理应用方面的培训对许多学科的现代研究是必不可少的 从化学和生物化学到生物、工程和医学。承认这一需求，北卡罗来纳州 美国州立大学启动了一项新的研究和培训计划，名为生命化学计划(CLP) 并启动了以生命化学培训计划(CLTP)为核心的创新研究生培训计划 元素。该计划的一个关键方面是核心化学生物学的核心培训，包括讲课和实验。 原则和技术。这不仅有利于完成学生的毕业论文研究，也有利于学生完成论文研究。 为学术、政府和工业研究领域的职业机会奠定基础。要实现 为此，CLTP与比较医学研究所和生物技术培训计划合作，以 通过至少4个学院和7个系，在我们的校园内协同这一计划。一个跨部门的 执行委员会将领导CLTP的运作，并监督专注于计划的小组委员会 元素。培训方案的具体目标是：1)确保熟练掌握技术和培训 负责任和严谨的科学；2)提供符合毕业生的教育和培训经验 学生对跨学科未来的期望；以及，3)培养稳健的博士毕业结果。六个插槽 (第一年三个)将从大学资源中增加四个名额(第一年两个)。 该计划的要求包括辅修生命化学；一门专业发展课程/ 科学严谨性和可重复性；研究伦理课程；以及年度研究专题讨论会/务虚会。这些 要求是与学生的特定系或项目相关的要求之外的要求 博士学位。在为期两年的培训补助金期间，学员还将受益于 探索性实验室轮换计划，跨学科共同指导，参加关于 像研究商业化，以及通过本科生指导的机会等话题 团队科学项目的研究人员。该计划还将为不同学科的教职员工提供一个中心焦点 参与这一培训工作的学科为正式和非正式研究寻找新的机会 协作是更广泛的CLP计划的一部分。

Project Summary Training in the application of chemical principles is essential for modern research across a number of disciplines ranging from Chemistry and Biochemistry to Biology, Engineering and Medicine. Acknowledging this need, NC State University has launched a new research and training program called the Chemistry of Life Program (CLP) and initiated an innovative graduate training program, the Chemistry of Life Training Program (CLTP), as a core element. A key aspect of this program is core training, both lecture and experimental, in core chemical biology principles and techniques. This not only facilitates completion of the students’ dissertation research, but also lays the basis for career opportunities in academic, government, and industrial research settings. To achieve this, the CLTP has partnered with the Comparative Medicine Institute and Biotechnology Training Program to synergize this program across our campus though at least 4 Colleges and 7 Departments. A trans-departmental Executive Committee will lead the operation of the CLTP and oversee sub-committees focusing on program elements. The specific objectives of the training program are: 1) Ensure technical proficiency and training in responsible and rigorous science; 2) Provide an educational and training experience that is in line with graduate students’ expectations for an interdisciplinary future; and, 3) Nurture robust PhD graduation outcomes. Six slots (three in year 1) are requested that will be augmented by four slots (two in year 1) from University resources. The program requirements include a minor in the Chemistry of Life; a course in professional development/ scientific rigor and reproducibility; courses in research ethics; and an annual research symposium/retreat. These requirements are in addition to those associated with the student’s particular Department or Program for the doctoral degree. During their two-year appointment to the training grant, trainees will also benefit from an exploratory laboratory rotation program, co-mentorship across disciplines, access to development workshops on topics like research commercialization, and the opportunity to be guided through mentorship of undergraduate researchers on a team science project. This program will also provide a central focus for faculty of the various disciplines involved in this training effort to seek out new opportunities for formal and informal research collaboration as part of the broader CLP program.
