The training and education core will provide educational support for the Duke University Superfund Basic Research Center. The centerpiece will be our weekly seminar series which will feature local and national speakers of the full range of environmental and biomedical toxicology to help the students, postdocs, technicians and faculty of the center keep up with the latest research findings. By having members from all the projects attend the diverse presentations, we will foster mutual understanding of the diverse aspects of the center. With the postdoctoral program we will recruit fellows to conduct collaborative research among the different projects in the center. We will host workshops on research methods of the latest scientific techniques as well as workshops on scientific communication skills to help us effectively convey our research to our scientific colleagues and the broader society. Once a month we will have informal chalk talks in which all of the projects will in turn discuss their latest results and plans for future studies. These brainstorming sessions have been especially useful in developing new collaborations within the center. Once per semester we will host a day-long symposium on a focused area of toxicology to learn in depth the ways in which specific toxicological problems can be effectively addressed in a collaborative effort.

培训和教育核心将为杜克大学超级基金基础研究中心提供教育支持。核心将是我们的每周研讨会系列，其中将包括全方位的环境和生物医学毒理学的本地和国家发言人，以帮助该中心的学生，博士后，技术人员和教师跟上最新的研究成果。通过让所有项目的成员参加各种各样的演讲，我们将促进对中心各个方面的相互理解。通过博士后项目，我们将招募研究员在中心的不同项目之间进行合作研究。我们将举办最新科学技术研究方法的研讨会以及科学沟通技巧的研讨会，以帮助我们有效地将我们的研究成果传达给我们的科学同事和更广泛的社会。每个月我们都会举行一次非正式的粉笔会谈，所有的项目将依次讨论他们的最新成果和未来的研究计划。这些头脑风暴会议在中心内部发展新的合作方面特别有用。每学期一次，我们将举办为期一天的专题讨论会，重点关注毒理学领域，深入学习如何在合作中有效解决特定的毒理学问题。
