CORE--EDUCATION

该提案的一个重要组成部分将是其教育部分，这将在数学和计算方法与“湿台”癌症生物学之间的接口上培训学生和博士后，包括在细胞培养和动物（小鼠）模型水平上的分析。虽然目前的教师在这些接口活跃，整合癌症生物学的未来将由学员谁将成为在未来几年在这一新兴领域的领导者塑造。我们坚信，不同学科的真正融合最好通过联合培训和学员的监督来实现，这样他们就可以深入了解任何界面的双方-学生的表现迅速超过他们的导师。 因此，我们非常重视努力吸引来自细胞和分子生物学以及计算机科学和工程定量领域的学生，并将他们与来自这两个广泛领域的教师一起参与联合研究项目，这两个领域正在产生越来越多的生产力协同效应。

An important part of this proposal will be its educational component, which will train students and postdoctorals at the interfaces between mathematical and computational approaches and "wet-bench" cancer biology, including analyses at both the cell culture and animal (mouse) model levels. While current faculty members are active at these interfaces, the future of integrative cancer biology will be shaped by the trainees who will become the leaders in this emerging area over the next few years. We firmly believe that a true integration of different disciplines is best achieved by the joint training and supervision of trainees so that they become deeply conversant with both sides of any interface - the students rapidly outperform their mentors. Accordingly, we place significant emphasis on efforts to attract students both from cell and molecular biology and from the quantitative fields of computer science and engineering and bring them together in joint research projects with faculty members from these two broad areas, which are increasingly yielding productive synergies.
