TRAINING GRANT IN ACADEMIC NUTRITION

学术营养培训补助金汇集了哈佛公共卫生学院和哈佛医学院的智力和物质资源，促进学员和教师之间的密切互动，包括分布在这两个机构之间的23名导师和6名资源教师。主要研究者Walter Willett博士和共同主要研究者W.艾伦步行者，已经建立了一个强大的和充满活力的前和博士后计划，我们现在正在寻求扩大。该培训计划已成功招募了一批优秀的申请人，许多医学博士和研究生，他们表现出对营养科学研究的智力承诺和奉献精神。被录取的候选人将接受当代营养学三个关键领域的培训：营养生物化学，人类/临床营养和营养流行病学。我们的总体目标是将基础科学和应用科学的概念，方法和科学工具结合起来，使学员能够超越传统的专业界限，面对21世纪世纪营养科学的挑战。该培训计划是专为谁最近完成了本科学位的个人，进入正式的博士课程，并为医生和其他博士课程的毕业生谁将进入一个密集的研究培训计划与选项，以获得正式学位。提供的学位是博士学位或研究培训课程，可选择获得正式学位。提供的学位是营养生物化学博士或DSc和营养流行病学DSc。对于MD研究员，我们提供了一个独特的临床有效性硕士课程，用于基于人类受试者直接研究的临床研究培训。无论轨道，所有学生必须成功完成教学课程，涉及基本的生物化学和分子概念和定量科学，包括流行病学和生物统计学的高级培训。这项研究计划得到了人类/临床营养领域大量选修课程的支持。所有这些努力，以整合现代分子科学和当代流行病学是通过要求“动手”流行指导营养科学研究与科学家谁是在他们的研究“前沿”加强。

The Training Grant in Academic Nutrition brings together the intellectual and physical resources of the Harvard School of Public Health, and Harvard Medical School, fostering close interactions between trainees and faculty, including 23 preceptors and 6 resource faculty distributed between these two institutions. The Principal Investigator, Dr. Walter Willett, and Co-Principal Investigator, Dr. W. Allan Walker, have established a strong and vigorous pre- and post-doctoral program that we are now seeking to expand. The Training Program has successfully recruited an outstanding cadre of applicants, many MD and post-graduate students, who demonstrate intellectual promise and dedicated commitment to nutritional science research. Those candidates accepted into our program receive training in three key areas of contemporary nutrition: Nutritional Biochemistry, Human/Clinical Nutrition, and Nutritional Epidemiology. Our overall goal is to incorporate concepts, approaches, and scientific tools from both basic and applied science so that trainees are able to transcend conventional specialty boundaries to face the challenges of nutritional sciences in the 21st century. This Training Program is designed both for individuals who have recently completed their undergraduate degree, entering a formal doctoral program, and for physicians and graduates of other doctoral programs who will enter an intensive research training program with options to obtain formal degrees. The degrees offered are the PhD or research training program with options to obtain formal degrees. The degrees offered are the PhD or DSc in Nutritional Biochemistry and the DSc in Nutritional Epidemiology. For MD fellows, we offer a unique Masters Program in Clinical Effectiveness for training in clinical investigation based on direct studies with human subjects. Regardless of track, all students must successfully completed didactic coursework involving both basic biochemical and molecular concepts and advanced training in quantitative sciences, including epidemiology and biostatistics. This plan of study is bolstered by substantial elective coursework in area of human/clinical nutrition. All of these efforts to integrate modern molecular science and contemporary epidemiology are reinforced through demanding "hands-on" popular-guided nutritional science research with scientists who are at the "cutting edge" of their research.
