描述(由申请者提供)：哺乳动物培训计划 繁殖是为了让有前途的年轻科学家为研究做准备 生殖生物学方面的职业。培训计划的一大优势在于 在该计划的多学科背景和研究专长中 研究人员，从分子和细胞生物学和遗传学到 组织和整个动物水平的器官生理学。人民的利益 教职员工围绕几个共同的主题团结在一起，专注于生殖 系统。包括发育和分化、细胞-细胞 通讯、信号转导、基因表达控制、激素 对癌症和毒理学、RNA加工以及女性方方面面的影响 和雄性生殖。博士后研究员有广泛的实验选择 模特们。除了在主办方S实验室的学习经历， 被支持的研究员通过以下形式接触到整个教职员工的专业知识 非正式和协作互动，并作为培训的结果 计划研讨会和研究论坛系列。 博士后培训强调研究方面的额外技能发展， 沟通、批判性思维和新知识的获取。研究 培训主要由个人赞助商负责。全 培训计划教员将他们的实验室和技能提供给 根据需要培训学员。博士后参与生殖研究 生物研究论坛，一系列学生和研究员介绍 他们的研究成果。研究员也参加每月的研讨会在 生殖生物学，由培训计划和 产科、妇科和生殖科学系。这一系列是 旨在让学员拓宽他们对最近的 生殖生物学研究前沿的发展，除了 让他们有机会与顶尖科学家进行个人接触。全 预计研究员将参加实验室小组会议，在那里他们 展示他们的数据和相关文献，并从其他人那里获得反馈 在实验设计、数据分析等方面，研究员们也 鼓励参加医疗中心的其他研讨会并参加 与他们的工作相关的研究生课程。培训计划共同主办了一项 一系列负责任的研究行为，并积极努力 招聘少数族裔申请者。 这项培训计划的目的是培养有前途的年轻科学家 从事生殖生物学的研究工作。该计划强调 其导师教员的多学科背景和专业知识。教员 围绕着几个主题，这些主题侧重于生殖生物学。这个 该计划还强调沟通和批评方面的技能发展 思考，并鼓励新知识的获取。后者包括 生殖生物学研究生课程。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Training Program in Mammalian Reproduction is designed to prepare promising young scientists for research careers in reproductive biology. A major strength of the Training Program lies in the multidisciplinary background and research expertise of the Program investigators, ranging from molecular and cellular biology and genetics to organ physiology at the tissue and whole animal level. The interests of the faculty coalesce around several common themes, focused on the reproductive system. These include development and differentiation, cell-cell communication, signal transduction, control of gene expression, hormonal influences in cancer and toxicology, RNA processing, and all aspects of female and male reproduction. Postdoctoral fellows have a wide choice of experimental models. In addition to the learning experience in the sponsor?s laboratory, supported fellows have exposure to expertise of the entire faculty in the form of informal and collaborative interactions and as a result of the Training Program Seminar and Research Forum series. Postdoctoral training emphasizes additional skill development in research, communication, critical thinking, and new knowledge acquisition. Research training is primarily the responsibility of the individual sponsor. All Training Program faculty make their laboratories and skills available to trainees as needed. Postdoctoral fellows participate in the Reproductive Biology Research Forum, a series in which students and fellows present the results of their research. Fellows also attend the monthly Seminars in Reproductive Biology, sponsored jointly by the Training Program and the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences. The series is designed to allow trainees to broaden their general knowledge of recent developments at the forefront of reproductive biology research, in addition to giving them the opportunity for personal contact with leading scientists. All fellows are expected to participate in laboratory group meetings, where they present their data and relevant literature and receive feedback from others concerning experimental design, data analysis, etc. Fellows are also encouraged to attend other seminars in the Medical Center and to attend graduate courses relevant to their work. The Training Program co-sponsors a series in the responsible conduct of research and makes a vigorous effort to recruit minority applicants. The purpose of this Training Program is to prepare promising young scientists for research careers in reproductive biology. The Program emphasizes multidisciplinary background and expertise of its preceptor faculty. Faculty cluster around several themes, which focus on reproductive biology. The Program also emphasizes skill development in communication and critical thinking, and encourages new knowledge acquisition. The latter includes graduate courses in reproductive biology.
