项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Seventeen outstanding research groups at Texas A&M University and the Texas A&M University Health Science Center have created an interdisciplinary graduate student training program in Molecular Biophysics (MB). The expertise of the training faculty spans a wide range of research techniques and biological systems, from biophysical chemistry and bio-molecular spectroscopy to structural and computational biology. Each PI is dedicated to exploring complex biological processes at the molecular level, and the experimental focus ranges from thermodynamics to kinetics, from single molecules to multi-component complexes, and from soluble to membrane-bound systems. This diversity will provide trainees with the breadth of research and course offerings and the depth of understanding that ensures a successful training program in MB. The MB faculty members have established productive, externally-funded, and well-equipped research programs in the MB area, and have been successful in mentoring and training graduate students. The MB training faculty members have primary appointments in five different departments, but share a strong history of collaborative interactions in research, in teaching, and in journal clubs. The graduate programs associated with individual departments have demonstrated their ability to recruit outstanding students from across the United States for graduate study, and MB recruiting will complement these efforts. Trainees will enter the MB program and receive their Ph.D. degrees through one of two departments. Three new students will receive an MB fellowship each year, and each will be supported for the initial two years of Ph.D. study. In the first year, each student will do three laboratory rotations prior to choosing a research advisor from the MB faculty, regardless of his/her departmental affiliation. During the initial two-year period, MB trainees will receive formal training in the fundamental biophysical and biochemical principles, the responsible conduct of research, and the interpretation and presentation of research results. Advanced training in various aspects of molecular biophysics will be provided by elective courses. Trainees will participate in the biophysics journal club throughout their graduate careers, both to improve their presentation skills and to maintain a sense of participation in the program following the second year. We anticipate that graduates of the MB training program will be well-positioned to make critical contributions to the biomedical sciences in the post-genomic era.

德克萨斯A&M大学和德克萨斯A&M大学健康科学中心的17个优秀研究小组在分子生物物理学（MB）方面创建了一个跨学科的研究生培训计划。培训教师的专业知识涵盖了广泛的研究技术和生物系统，从生物物理化学和生物分子光谱到结构和计算生物学。每个PI都致力于在分子水平上探索复杂的生物过程，实验重点从热力学到动力学，从单分子到多组分复合物，从可溶性到膜结合系统。这种多样性将为学员提供研究和课程的广度和理解的深度，以确保在MB成功的培训计划。MB教师在MB领域建立了富有成效的，外部资助的和装备精良的研究计划，并成功地指导和培训研究生。MB培训教师在五个不同的部门有主要的任命，但在研究，教学和期刊俱乐部合作互动的历史很强。与各个部门相关的研究生课程已经证明了他们有能力从美国各地招募优秀学生进行研究生学习，MB招聘将补充这些努力。学员将进入MB计划，并获得博士学位。通过两个部门之一。每年将有三名新学生获得MB奖学金，每个人都将获得博士学位最初两年的支持。study.在第一年，每个学生将做三个实验室轮换之前，从MB教师选择一个研究顾问，无论他/她的部门隶属关系。在最初的两年期间，甲基溴受训人员将接受关于基本生物物理和生物化学原则、负责任地进行研究以及解释和介绍研究结果的正式培训。将通过选修课程提供分子生物物理学各个方面的高级培训。学员将在整个研究生职业生涯中参加生物物理学杂志俱乐部，以提高他们的演讲技巧，并在第二年后保持对该计划的参与感。我们预计，MB培训计划的毕业生将能够在后基因组时代为生物医学科学做出重要贡献。
