This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. This is the training grant for the graduate PhD neuroscience program at Emory. It represents the main source of funding for students enrolled in the program. In 2009-10, this training grant supported parts of the stipends, tuition fees, activity fees and other training expenses for six second year students in the neuroscience graduate program. In addition, we received a supplement award from the NIH which allowed us to support three more first year graduate students. Second year students nominated for training grant support are chosen based on their academic performance during their first year in the program and their general participation in program activities. In addition to financial support, trainees use some of these funds to invite a guest speaker for the weekly seminar series sponsored by the program. The trainees are in charge of inviting their guest, organize their visit and host them when they come to Emory. This has proven to be an excellent opportunity for students to interact with well-known researchers in their field of interest. First year students were chosen based on their academic credentials and quality of applications to the Emory PhD Neuroscience program. They used a portion of their funds to organize a symposium on Neuroethics of Brain Imaging last Spring. Both first and second year trainees also receive funds to cover expenses to attend the annual Society for Neuroscience meeting, which provides them a unique exposure to the field of neuroscience research.

这个子项目是利用资源的许多研究子项目之一。 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。对子项目的主要支持 子项目的首席调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括美国国立卫生研究院的其他来源。为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示该子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 不是由NCRR赠款提供给次级项目或次级项目工作人员的直接资金。 这是埃默里大学神经科学博士研究生项目的培训补助金。它是注册该项目的学生的主要资金来源。在2009-10年度，这笔培训补助金支持神经科学研究生项目中六名二年级学生的部分津贴、学费、活动费和其他培训费用。此外，我们还获得了美国国立卫生研究院颁发的补充奖，使我们能够资助另外三名一年级研究生。被提名参加培训资助的二年级学生是根据他们在计划第一年的学习表现和他们对计划活动的总体参与情况来选择的。除了财政支持外，学员还利用其中的一些资金邀请一位嘉宾演讲者参加由该项目赞助的每周一次的研讨会系列。学员们负责邀请他们的客人，组织他们的参观，并在他们来到埃默里时接待他们。事实证明，这是学生与他们感兴趣领域的知名研究人员互动的绝佳机会。第一年的学生是根据他们的学历和申请埃默里博士神经科学项目的质量来选择的。去年春天，他们用一部分资金组织了一次关于脑成像神经伦理学的研讨会。第一年和第二年的学员还可以获得资金，用于支付参加神经科学学会年会的费用，这为他们提供了接触神经科学研究领域的独特机会。
