We propose to consolidate predoctoral training slots from two existing neuroscience training grants at Brandeis University, under the terms of the Jointly Sponsored NIH Predoctoral Training Program in the Neurosciences. Our Predoctoral Training Program in the Neurosciences is organized under the umbrella of the university's Volen Center for Complex Systems. We propose to train nine predoctoral students per year in the fields of molecular cellular, systems, cognitive, and computational neuroscience. The training faculty includes twenty-three members of the Biology, Biochemistry, Psychology, Chemistry, Physics, and Computer Science Departments at Brandeis, all of whom are also members of the Volen Center for Complex Systems. Research interests of the training faculty range from molecular studies of membrane ion channels, through cognitive studies of human behavior. Trainees are chosen from our large pool of neuroscience graduate students. They will satisfy all the laboratory rotation, course and qualifying exam requirements of the neuroscience Ph.D. program, will carry out Ph.D. thesis research in the laboratory of one of the training faculty, and will participate in other training activities including our Neurobiology Journal Club, Volen Center Colloquium Series, Volen Center Annual Retreat, and regular meetings of several laboratories with common interests. Our broadly based training program and unique environment provide an unparalleled opportunity to train the neuroscientists of the 21st century.

根据美国国立卫生研究院联合赞助的神经科学博士前培训计划，我们建议合并布兰迪斯大学现有的两项神经科学培训补助金的博士前培训名额。我们的神经科学博士前培训项目是在大学的Volen复杂系统中心的保护下组织的。我们建议每年培养9名分子细胞、系统、认知和计算神经科学领域的博士生。培训教师包括布兰代斯大学生物、生物化学、心理学、化学、物理和计算机科学系的23名成员，他们都是Volen复杂系统中心的成员。培训教员的研究兴趣范围从膜离子通道的分子研究到人类行为的认知研究。受训者是从我们大量的神经科学研究生中挑选出来的。他们将满足神经科学博士项目的所有实验室轮转、课程和资格考试要求，将在其中一个培训学院的实验室进行博士论文研究，并将参加其他培训活动，包括我们的神经生物学期刊俱乐部、Volen中心系列研讨会、Volen中心年度务静会和几个有共同兴趣的实验室的定期会议。我们广泛的培训计划和独特的环境为培养21世纪的神经科学家提供了无与伦比的机会。
