The proposed post-doctoral tobacco research training program builds on an existing, highly successful Interdisciplinary Doctoral Training Program in Tumor Biology, predoctoral and postdoctoral training programs in Pharmacology, and a newly peer-reviewed and funded Cancer Prevention and control training component of the Tumor Biology Training Program. A focus of the new training program will be to recruit trainees from a consistently large, outstanding, and multi-disciplinary pool of qualified applicants with the M.D., M.D./Ph.D. or Ph.D. degrees in order to prepare them for patient- and population-based translational research in tobacco control. Each trainee will be supported for two years in the training program. The trainees will select a primary research mentor, based on their predoctoral research, course work and/or current research interests. Co-mentors will be assigned to each trainee to insure multi-disciplinary collaborations among mentors. The specific aims are: 1. To recruit and select two post-doctoral trainees per year for a transdisciplinary tobacco research post-doctoral program, with particular attention paid to recruiting women and minorities. 2. To integrate and expand existing training programs at GUMC to create an educational curriculum for post-doctoral trainees, with particular emphasis on the theme of the TTURC (bio-behavioral basis of tobacco use). 3. To provide outstanding mentoring experiences for post-doctoral trainees, including involvement on research projects, as well as clinical and laboratory activities as appropriate. 4. To facilitate the career development of post-doctoral trainees through submission of pilot project and research grant applications. The training integrates multi-disciplinary faculty from the Lombardi Cancer Center (LCC) Programs in Cancer Prevention and Control and Cancer Genetics, as well as the Department of Pharmacology and the Georgetown Grace Dorney Institute on Tobacco and Health, and the National Institutes of Health. This new training program initiative will be co-led by Dr. Jon Kerner, Associate Director of the Lombardi Cancer Center and Control Research Program, Dr. Kenneth Keller, Professor of Pharmacology, and Dr. Janet Audrain, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry.

拟议的博士后烟草研究培训计划建立在现有的，非常成功的肿瘤生物学跨学科博士培训计划，药理学博士前和博士后培训计划，以及新的同行评审和资助的肿瘤生物学培训计划的癌症预防和控制培训组成部分。新的培训计划的重点将是从一个一贯庞大的，优秀的，多学科的合格申请人与医学博士，医学博士/博士或博士这些学位的目的是让他们为烟草控制领域基于患者和人口的转化研究做好准备。每个受训者将在培训方案中得到两年的支持。学员将根据他们的博士前研究，课程工作和/或当前的研究兴趣选择一个主要的研究导师。我们会为每名学员指派一名导师，以确保导师之间的多学科合作。具体目标是：1.每年为一个跨学科的烟草研究博士后项目招募和挑选两名博士后学员，特别注意招募妇女和少数民族。2.整合和扩展GUMC现有的培训计划，为博士后学员创建教育课程，特别强调TTURC（烟草使用的生物行为基础）的主题。3.为博士后学员提供优秀的指导经验，包括参与研究项目，以及适当的临床和实验室活动。4.透过提交试验计划及研究资助申请，促进博士后学员的事业发展。该培训整合了来自隆巴迪癌症中心（LCC）癌症预防和控制和癌症遗传学计划的多学科教师，以及药理学系和乔治敦格雷斯多伊尔烟草与健康研究所以及美国国立卫生研究院。这项新的培训计划将由隆巴迪癌症中心和控制研究计划副主任Jon Kerner博士，药理学教授Kenneth Keller博士和精神病学助理教授Janet Audrain博士共同领导。
