The number of available organs is severely limited by a shortage of donors. A new field of science, regenerative medicine, has emerged that brings the potential of designing and creating artificial organs or parts of organs very close to a reality. To develop functional tissue it will be required to apply genetic, computational, and tissue engineering approaches in a novel way. This will require a novel type of scientist who has been well-trained in the concepts and methods at the interfaces of multiple disciplines. Successfully integrating the approaches of developmental biology, genomic, computational and quantitative science, and tissue engineering could dramatically catalyze the formation of a new interdisciplinary approach to organ building. This would have a profound impact on the treatment of many diseases. The SysCODE (Systems-based Consortium for Organ Design and Engineering) Training Program involves educational and research communities at Harvard, MIT, Boston University, and Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. The primary goal is to is to cross-train young postdoctoral trainees in an area of expertise outside of their primary research field. Working at the intersection of multiple disciplines will enable these trainees to learn a new language and ultimately develop a common dialect that effectively bridges disciplines. This new generation of scholars will be better prepared to address the complexity of organ design and engineering from an interdisciplinary approach. The fabric of collaboration and interdisciplinary approaches to science will break from the usual "one postdoctoral fellow - one mentor - one laboratory" approach to postgraduate training in the sciences and will actively encourage communication across laboratories, institutions and geographic boundaries. This program will provide postdoctoral trainees with tools necessary for becoming independent investigators with unique faculty in the interdisciplinary approach to science.

由于缺乏捐赠者，可用器官的数量受到严重限制。一个新的科学领域， 再生医学的出现，带来了设计和创造人造器官的潜力， 器官的一部分非常接近现实。为了发育出功能性组织， 计算机和组织工程学的新方法。这将需要一种新型的科学家 他在多学科的概念和方法方面受过良好的培训。成功 整合发育生物学、基因组学、计算和定量科学的方法， 组织工程可以极大地促进一种新的跨学科方法的形成， 建设这将对许多疾病的治疗产生深远的影响。 SysCODE（器官设计与工程系统联盟）培训计划包括： 哈佛、麻省理工学院、波士顿大学和范德比尔特大学学院的教育和研究团体 医学。主要目标是在专业领域交叉培训年轻的博士后学员 在他们的主要研究领域之外。在多个学科的交叉点工作将使这些 学员学习一门新的语言，并最终发展出一种共同的方言， 学科新一代的学者将更好地准备解决器官的复杂性， 设计和工程从一个跨学科的方法。协作和跨学科的结构 科学方法将打破通常的“一个博士后研究员-一个导师-一个实验室” 在科学研究生培训的方法，并将积极鼓励交流， 实验室、机构和地理边界。该计划将为博士后培训生提供 必要的工具，成为独立的研究人员与独特的教师在跨学科的方法 对科学的贡献
