Biostatistics for Research in Genomics and Cancer

项目概要 这个为期 5 年的项目旨在继续培养统计方面的博士前 (PhD) 学生 基因组学，主要侧重于癌症基因组学。目标是培训生物统计学家 癌症的生物学、病因学和遗传学，并培训他们进行最先进的研究 与癌症基因组学以及相关领域相关的生物统计方法学研究 基因组学领域。目标是培养能够与其他人合作的生物统计学家 科学研究人员和肿瘤学家与基因组学和癌症相关的研究问题。的 典型的博士前培训生是大学毕业生或硕士毕业生，具有优秀的 适合该培训领域的学术记录。请求资金支持 5 博士前实习生。北卡罗来纳大学生物统计系是世界上最大的系之一， 并拥有高素质的人员和可用的设施来提供最 该研究领域的全面博士前和博士后培训。会员若干名 来自遗传学、生物信息学和计算生物学系（BCB） 项目将深入参与本次培训项目的各个阶段，并发挥不可或缺的作用 在此培训计划中的作用。

Project Summary This 5 year program is designed to continue to train predoctoral (PhD) students in statistical genomics with the major emphasis in cancer genomics. The goal is to train biostatisticians in the biology, etiology, and genetics of cancer, as well as to train them to conduct state-of-the-art biostatistical methodologic research relevant to the genomics of cancer as well as in related areas of genomics. The goal is to also produce biostatisticians who can collaborate with other scientific researchers and oncologists on research issues related to genomics and cancer. The typical predoctoral trainee will be a college graduate or master's level graduate with an excellent academic record appropriate for this training area. Funding is requested for the support of 5 predoctoral trainees. The Department of Biostatistics at UNC is one of the largest in the world, and has highly qualified personnel and the available facilities to provide the most comprehensive predoctoral and postdoctoral training in this research area. Several members from the Department of Genetics and the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (BCB) program will be deeply involved in all phases of this training program and will play an integral role in this training program.
