项目摘要

The cornerstone of any transdisciplinary research enterprise is a cadre of appropriately trained investigators. To contribute to the development of such a cadre, the Center's Education and Training unit will provide support for undergraduates, medical students, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty to motivate and prepare them to work at the interface of the physical/quantitative sciences and cancer research. At NU, as at most academic institutions, students and fellows in physical sciences departments receive little exposure to the fields of cancer biology and oncology. Likewise, medical students and trainees in tumor biology remain largely insulated from the physical sciences. A central mission of the Center's Education and Training unit is therefore to develop a variety of cross-disciplinary educational offerings (seminars, workshops, journal clubs, research experiences) to begin the process of bridging the gap between the physical sciences and tumor biology. We will focus the bulk of our efforts on NU students and fellows, in the hopes of planting seeds of interest that will influence subsequent training and career decisions. To extend our educational programs to interested parties outside of NU, seminars and workshops will be recorded and archived, so that they can be accessed from the Center website. The Unit will also provide funding to support cross-disciplinary educational and training experiences at institutions and venues external to NU (workshops at other PS-OCs, AACR meetings, exchange of trainees and faculty between physical sciences and oncological sciences laboratories).

任何跨学科研究事业的基石都是一支经过适当培训的研究人员队伍。为了促进这样一支骨干队伍的发展，该中心的教育和培训部门将为本科生、医学生、研究生、博士后研究员和教师提供支持，以激励和准备他们在物理/定量科学和癌症研究的交叉领域工作。在国立大学，与大多数学术机构一样，物理科学系的学生和研究员很少接触癌症生物学和肿瘤学领域。同样，医学生和实习生肿瘤生物学领域在很大程度上仍然与物理科学隔绝。因此，该中心教育和培训部门的核心任务是开发各种跨学科教育产品（研讨会、讲习班、期刊俱乐部、研究经验），以开始弥合物理科学和肿瘤生物学之间差距的过程。我们将把大部分精力集中在国立大学的学生和研究员身上，希望播下影响后续培训和职业的兴趣种子决定。为了将我们的教育计划扩展到国立大学以外的感兴趣的各方，研讨会和讲习班将被记录和存档，以便可以从中心网站访问。该部门还将提供资金，支持 NU 外部机构和场所的跨学科教育和培训经验（其他 PS-OC 的研讨会、AACR 会议、物理科学和肿瘤科学实验室之间的学员和教师交流）。
