Cancer Prevention Training in Nutrition, Exercise & Genetics

癌症预防领域的跨学科性质需要广泛的研究技能。在……里面 在过去的4年里，我们成功地实施了R25T跨学科培训计划 强调人类营养、运动、遗传和代谢途径在癌症中的相互关系 易感性和预防。本培训计划的目标是：(1)继续发展和 实施新课程和相关的新课程，以提供跨学科的培训 流行病学、营养学、遗传学和分子生物学的博士后和博士后研究的第二领域 细胞生物学，以及(2)在进行多学科癌症方面提供广泛的研究经验 预防研究，重点是人类营养、遗传和代谢途径。 我们建议培训5名博士后和3名博士后研究员。正式的课程和学位将由四个人授予 华盛顿大学参与的项目：流行病学、营养学、公共卫生 遗传学与分子和细胞生物学。每个受训人员将完成一门由 R25T在他/她的博士区以外的次要区域。本课程以现有课程加4门为基础。 由R25T开发的新课程，以填补跨学科培训的空白。 学员将在弗雷德·哈钦森大学的三个单元内获得癌症预防研究的经验 癌症研究中心：癌症预防、流行病学和人类生物学。每个人都将在 至少两位来自不同学科的研究导师。由世界银行的领导人组成的咨询委员会 参与计划将挑选受训人员，监督他们的进展，并向计划主任提供建议。 完成这一计划的学员将拥有教学和研究经验，使他们能够 多学科癌症预防研究项目的知识渊博的研究人员。

The interdisciplinary nature of the field of cancer prevention requires a broad spectrum of research skills. In the past 4 years, we have successfully implemented an R25T interdisciplinary training program with emphasis on the interrelationships of human nutrition, exercise, genetics and metabolic pathways in cancer susceptibility and prevention. The objectives of this training program are: (1) To continue to develop and implement a new curriculum and associated new courses to provide trans-disciplinary training in a secondary area to pre- and post-doctoral fellows in Epidemiology, Nutrition, Genetics and Molecular and Cellular Biology, and (2) To provide extensive research experience in the conduct of multidisciplinary cancer prevention research, with emphasis on human nutrition, genetics and metabolic pathways. We propose to train 5 pre- and 3 post-doctoral fellows. Formal coursework and degrees will be given by four participating programs of the University of Washington: Epidemiology, Nutritional Sciences, Public Health Genetics and Molecular and Cellular Biology. Each trainee will complete a new curriculum developed by this R25T in a secondary area outside his/her PhD area. This curriculum is based on existing courses plus 4 new courses developed by this R25T to fill gaps in trans-disciplinary training. Trainees will gain experience in cancer prevention research within three units of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center: Cancer Prevention, Epidemiology, and Human Biology. Each fellow will have at least two research mentors from different disciplines. An Advisory Committee composed of leaders of the participating programs will select trainees, monitor their progress and advise the Program Director. Trainees who complete this program will have the didactic and research experience to allow them to be knowledgeable investigators on multidisciplinary cancer prevention research projects.
