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的 在位于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。 管理出华盛顿（UW）的大学，这个跨学科的计划也支持博士预科 在弗雷德哈钦森癌症研究中心（弗雷德哈奇）和合作机构的学员。主 CMB计划的目标是招募一群热情和积极的学生，他们是 热衷于生物医学科学，并提供跨学科的个性化培训 与分子和细胞生物学的基本和翻译方面有关。这些有才华的人 有机会得到63名教师的指导，他们是一系列学科的专家。学生 从七个参与研究生课程，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。中巴学员进入 通过年度书面和口头部分的整体选择后，在研究生院的第二年计划 应用竞争。学员完成生物统计学和生物统计学基础的必修课程 分子生物学;参加生物医学研究完整性系列讲座;参加每月的学生 组织研究会议，提供演讲和建立联系的机会;接受科学严谨性培训 和可重复性，获得科学写作技能，参加同行指导计划，并参加 年度CMB培训补助金务虚会。传统上，CMB计划已成功地与几个 少数民族倡导团体，以促进所有校园的多样性。我们继续扩大代表性不足的 少数民族（URM）的足迹，现在还强调招聘和留住学生谁是 家庭中第一个上大学的人（第一代）和残疾学生。这位创新的毕业生 培训环境鼓励学员追求卓越的科学，并支持同侪指导和 探索其他职业道路。预期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。
