COURSE ON FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF VISION

意义和具体目标：描述了一门设计的课程 为学生提供接触教员的机会，这些教员是研究 海洋生物实验室视觉分子和细胞生物学 1994年、1996年和1998年在马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔。本课程以一门课程为基础 提供于1993年，是由NEL和MBL作为合同赞助的。一些人 的领导力将继续在领导力中发挥作用 建议的课程。该课程提供实验室、研讨会、 讲座和案例会议/期刊俱乐部的形式，以最大限度地提高积极性 学习的组成部分。学生将从受访者中挑选出来 在《细胞和分子生物学》杂志上刊登广告 神经科学。重点将放在挑选符合以下条件的学生 目前没有参与视觉研究，以便向他们介绍 有机会就他们感兴趣的主题在 视觉系统。教师的遴选将与 NEI将让NEI的工作人员参与教师鉴定， 选拔和批准并参与学生选拔。这个 具体的教职员工尚未选出，但每个人的领导层 1994年课程的主题已被确定为副主任 将参与合作选拔教职员工。教职员工 如果提案获得批准，将选择该选项，并且它们将类似于 质和量都是在1992年入选的。强调 教师在分子和细胞方面的专业知识 在视觉研究方面的贡献将是 选择。

Significance and Specific Aims: A course is described which is designed to offer students access to faculty who are leaders in studies of the molecular and cell biology of vision at the Marine Biology Laboratory at Woods Hole, MA in 1994, 1996 and 1998. The course is based on a course offered in 1993 which was sponsored as a contract by NEL and MBL. Some of the leadership of that course are continuing in leadership the proposed course. The course offers experience in laboratories, seminars, lectures and a case conference/journal club format to maximize the active component of learning. Students will be selected from respondents to advertisements in journals of cell and molecular biology and neurosciences. Emphasis will be placed on selection of students who are not currently involved in vision research in order to introduce them to opportunities for research on topics of interest to them within the visual system. Faculty will be selected in cooperative agreement with NEI to involve NEI staff participation in faculty identification, selection and approval and participation in student selection. The specific faculty have not yet been selected but the leadership of each topic for the 1994 course have been identified as Associate Directors who will participate in the cooperative selection of faculty. The faculty will be chosen if the proposal is approved and they will resemble in quality and quantity those who were selected in 1992. Emphasis on faculty expertise in molecular and cellular aspects in their contributions in vision research will be an important criterion for selection.
