DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Postgraduate Program in Radiological Science provides recent doctoral graduates in physics, chemistry, engineering, and mathematics with additional training and experience in the field of radiological science. Physicians and scientists from other disciplines, who have well-developed, appropriate career goals may also apply. The rationale for this program is based on several factors: 1) the growing need for basic scientists with training in functional and multi-modality imaging; 2) the availability of high quality research programs that can provide exciting opportunities for research fellows; 3) the availability of modern well-equipped facilities; 4) the availability of an unusually strong group of preceptors and, in addition, a faculty who provide additional expertise and extend the range of contacts available to fellows in the program; 5) the existence of long-standing, diverse collaborations, both within the MGH and with investigators at Harvard Medical School, Harvard University, and other HMS-affiliated hospitals; and 6) the availability of the resources of the Department of Radiology and those of the academic and medical community of the greater Boston area. The program is designed to provide a two-year training experience and includes courses, tutorials and participation in research seminars and laboratory meetings, in addition to active participation in research projects. Individual training programs are created for each fellow based on his/her interest and abilities, the availability of suitable preceptors and research funding. Training is conducted in the environment of a major medical center whose physical setting, intellectual resources and research activities provide an exciting milieu for scientists in training. Research opportunities currently exist in the areas of positron emission tomography (PET), molecular imaging, and cardiac imaging combining PET and other modalities, e.g. MRI, and/or CT.

描述（由申请人提供）：放射科学研究生课程为物理，化学，工程和数学领域的近期博士毕业生提供放射科学领域的额外培训和经验。来自其他学科的医生和科学家，他们有良好的发展，适当的职业目标也可以申请。该计划的基本原理基于以下几个因素：1)对功能和多模态成像训练的基础科学家的需求日益增长；2)提供高质量的研究项目，为研究人员提供令人兴奋的机会；3)现代化设备齐全的设施；4)拥有一支非常强大的导师队伍，此外，还有一支教员队伍，他们可以提供额外的专业知识，并扩大项目成员的接触范围；5)在MGH内部以及与哈佛医学院、哈佛大学和其他hms附属医院的研究人员之间存在长期的、多样化的合作；6)放射科以及大波士顿地区学术和医学界资源的可用性。
