DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The aim of the proposed Immunology Training Program is to provide academia, industry, and governmental research laboratories with highly creative and productive research immunologists who are broadly trained in immunology, well trained in their research specialty, and schooled in interrelated fields (e.g., pathogenesis of disease, cell biology, molecular biology, tumor biology). This goal is mandated by the intellectual desires and career aspirations of the program's participants and by the health needs of the nation. This goal will be achieved by having the predoctoral students follow a highly visible and defined Immunology Track (core curriculum) set in the established interdepartmental graduate training milieu of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. The essential core environment will be fostered by: a Division of Immunology faculty dedicated to excellence in teaching and research and committed to immunology training; active immunological research programs of trainees and their mentors; a structured lecture course in immunology and with an adjunct co-seminar; a series of advanced level seminar courses on cutting edge topics in immunology; a research-in-progress seminar series and a journal club; an active seminar series; and by a catalytic number of trainees. Breadth in training in fields related to immunology will be accomplished by students in the Immunology Track taking courses and/or seminars in pertinent areas of scientific inquiry that interface with immunology. Research training opportunities in a wide variety of immunological problems within the purview of B-cell biology (Bottaro, Insel, Phipps, Sanz, Young), T-cell biology (Barth, Cohen, Crispe, Fowell, Frelinger, Mosmann, Moynihan, Zheng), inflammation (Barth, Phipps, Segal), tumor immunity (Lord, Frelinger, Segal, Cohen), autoimmunity (Fowell, Segal), evolution of immunity (Cohen), and neural-immune system interactions (Moynihan, Cohen, Segal) will be offered to pre- and postdoctoral fellows by an experienced, talented, and highly interactive primary training faculty. Training support is requested for 10 predoctoral and 2 postdoctoral trainees in each of 5 years.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的免疫学培训计划的目的是为学术界，工业界和政府研究实验室提供具有高度创造性和生产力的研究免疫学家，他们在免疫学方面受过广泛的培训，在其研究专业方面受过良好的培训，并在相关领域（例如疾病发病机制，细胞生物学，分子生物学，肿瘤生物学）接受过教育。这一目标是由项目参与者的智力欲望和职业抱负以及国家的健康需求所决定的。这一目标将通过让博士生在罗彻斯特大学医学和牙科学院建立的跨部门研究生培训环境中遵循高度可见和明确的免疫学轨道（核心课程）来实现。基本的核心环境将由以下部门培养：免疫学教师致力于卓越的教学和研究，并致力于免疫学培训；学员及其导师积极开展免疫学研究项目；一门有组织的免疫学讲座课程，并附有一个联合研讨会；一系列关于免疫学前沿话题的高级研讨会课程；研究进展研讨会系列和期刊俱乐部；积极的系列讨论会；还有数量惊人的实习生。与免疫学相关领域的广泛培训将由免疫学专业的学生参加与免疫学相关的科学探究领域的课程和/或研讨会来完成。在b细胞生物学（Bottaro、Insel、Phipps、Sanz、Young）、t细胞生物学（Barth、Cohen、Crispe、Fowell、Frelinger、Mosmann、Moynihan、Zheng）、炎症（Barth、Phipps、Segal）、肿瘤免疫（Lord、Frelinger、Segal、Cohen）、自身免疫（Fowell、Segal）、免疫进化（Cohen）和神经-免疫系统相互作用(Moynihan、Cohen、Segal)将由一个经验丰富、才华横溢、高度互动的初级培训教师提供给博士后和博士后。每5年培养10名博士预科生和2名博士后。
