DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is a renewal for a pre-doctoral training program in genetics and cell biology at The Rockefeller University, an institution with a rich history in these areas. Since the previous application, we have added four new faculty, and the training faculty would be 54 strong investigators, ranging from full Professors, with extensive experience in training students, to newly hired Assistant Professors. The faculty has expertise in a very broad range of genetics and cell biology, ranging from the most basic to epidemiological studies on humans, and the program encourages students to perform collaborative work in various areas with different faculty. The applicant pool is outstanding, containing a large number of undergraduate students who have superb academic and research accomplishments, and who are primarily interested in genetics and cell biology. To train the students, we have devised a unique program of study, including a specialized course exclusively for the trainees; a defined, comprehensive curriculum; superb research possibilities; and an interactive and supportive environment. To provide structure, the Program incorporates careful faculty oversight to ensure a comprehensive formal education and expeditious progress towards the Ph.D. degree. Finally, the University provides strong support for the graduate program in general, which benefits the training program. The confluence of these attributes defines a training program that equips students with the educational background, analytical abilities, and experimental expertise to forge future advances in genetics and cell biology.

描述(由申请人提供)：这份申请是对洛克菲勒大学遗传学和细胞生物学博士前培训计划的续签，洛克菲勒大学是一所在这些领域拥有丰富历史的机构。自上次申请以来，我们增加了四名新教师，培训教师将是54名强大的调查人员，从在培训学生方面具有丰富经验的全职教授到新聘用的助理教授。该学院在遗传学和细胞生物学方面拥有广泛的专业知识，从最基础的人类研究到流行病学研究，该项目鼓励学生与不同的教师在不同领域开展合作工作。申请者群体非常优秀，包括大量具有卓越学术和研究成就的本科生，他们主要对遗传学和细胞生物学感兴趣。为了培训学生，我们设计了一个独特的学习计划，包括专门为受训人员开设的专门课程；明确的、全面的课程；卓越的研究可能性；以及互动和支持的环境。为了提供结构，该计划纳入了仔细的教职员工监督，以确保全面的正规教育和迅速取得博士学位。最后，大学为研究生项目提供了强有力的支持，这有利于培训项目。这些属性的融合定义了一个培训计划，使学生具备教育背景、分析能力和实验专业知识，以在遗传学和细胞生物学方面取得未来的进步。
