Abstract The Cellular and Molecular Biology (CMB) training program offers doctoral candidates a multidisciplinary education in molecular and cellular biology at institutions located within the Seattle biomedical corridor. Administered out of the University of Washington (UW), this interdisciplinary program also supports predoctoral trainees at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (Fred Hutch) and partner institutions. The primary objectives of the CMB program are to recruit a diverse group of enthusiastic and motivated students who are passionate about the biomedical sciences and to provide personalized training across a range of disciplines pertaining to basic and translational aspects of molecular and cellular biology. These talented individuals have the opportunity to be mentored by 63 faculty members who are experts in a range of disciplines. Students are drawn from seven participating graduate programs that include Biochemistry, Genome Sciences, Immunology, Microbiology, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Neuroscience, and Pharmacology. CMB trainees enter the program in Year 2 of graduate school after holistic selection through written and oral components of the annual application competition. Trainees complete mandatory coursework in biostatistics and fundamentals of molecular biology; participate in the Biomedical Research Integrity Lecture series; attend a monthly student organized research conference with speaking and networking opportunities; receive training in scientific rigor and reproducibility, gain scientific writing skills, participate in a peer mentoring program and take part in the annual CMB Training Grant retreat. Traditionally, the CMB program has successfully partnered with several minority advocacy groups to promote diversity on all campuses. We continue to expand the under-represented minority (URM) footprint and are now additionally emphasizing the recruitment and retention of students who are the first in their families to attend college (first generation) and students with disabilities. This innovative graduate training environment encourages trainees to pursue scientific excellence and endorses peer mentorship and the exploration of alternative career paths. The intended outcome is to nurture a diverse close-knit group of students who are equipped to become the next generation of scientific leaders.

摘要 细胞和分子生物学(CMB)培训计划为博士生提供多学科 在西雅图生物医学走廊内的机构进行分子和细胞生物学教育。 在华盛顿大学(UW)的管理下，这个跨学科的项目还支持博士前 弗雷德·哈钦森癌症研究中心(弗雷德·哈奇)及其合作机构的受训人员。初级阶段 CMB计划的目标是招收不同的热情和上进的学生群体，他们是 对生物医学科学充满热情，并提供跨多个学科的个性化培训 关于分子和细胞生物学的基本和翻译方面的。这些才华横溢的人 有机会得到63名教职员工的指导，他们是一系列学科的专家。学生们 来自七个参与的研究生项目，包括生物化学，基因组科学，免疫学， 微生物学、分子和细胞生物学、神经科学和药理学。中巴学员参加 通过年度课程的书面和口头部分的整体选择后，研究生院二年级的课程 应用程序竞赛。学员完成生物统计学和生物统计学基础方面的必修课程 分子生物学；参加生物医学研究诚信系列讲座；参加每月一期的学生 组织研究会议，提供演讲和交流机会；接受科学严谨性培训 和可重复性，获得科学的写作技能，参加同伴指导计划，参加 一年一度的中巴培训助学金退役计划。传统上，CMB计划已经成功地与几个 少数群体倡导团体在所有校园促进多样性。我们继续扩大任职人数不足的 少数族裔(URM)足迹，现在还强调招聘和留住符合以下条件的学生 他们家庭中第一个上大学的(第一代)和残疾学生。这位富有创新精神的毕业生 培训环境鼓励学员追求科学上的卓越，并支持同行指导和 探索不同的职业道路。计划的结果是培养一个多样化的紧密联系的学生群体 他们有能力成为下一代的科学领袖。
