THE FEASIBILITY STUDIES FOR COLLABORATIVE INTERACTION FOR MINORITY INSTITUTE/CAN

该计划的目标是发展机构和课程基础设施，以启动和促进面向计算的科学家谁拥有与癌症生物学和健康差异研究有关的问题的学科的理解联合研究生学位课程。该项目支持一段时间的数据收集，课程调整，确定课程目标，以及创建生物信息学和计算生物学重点和最终联合学位课程所需的课程映射，开发和评估。通过调整已经在UTHSCSA开发的教学材料，并与UTHSCSA癌症/健康差异研究人员的数据和研究问题建立联系，该计划帮助教师开发一种基于计算的循证方法来教授UTSA的癌症生物学和健康差异。/最初。一个生物信息学的浓度/轨道将包围了，包括必要的课程开发，这一新的轨道。

he goals of this program are to develop the institutional and curricular infrastructure to initiate and promote joint graduate degree programs for computationally oriented scientists who have an understanding of the disciplines related to cancer biology and issues related to health disparities research. The project supports a period of data gathering, course alignment, defining course objectives, and the curriculum mapping, development, and assessment necessary for creating bioinformatics and computational biology emphases and eventually joint degree programs. By adapting instructional materials already developed at UTHSCSA and making connections with the data and research problems of UTHSCSA cancer/health disparities researchers, the program with help faculty develop a computational, evidence-based approach to teaching about cancer biology and health disparities at UTSA. /initially. a bioinformatics concentration/track will beset up including the necessary course development for this new track.
