DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is for continued NIH support for graduate student training within the Interdepartmental Neuroscience Program (INP) of Yale University. The INP is Yale's university-wide interdepartmental doctoral program, currently in its 22 year. Five students each in years 1 and 2 are supported by the INP Jointly Sponsored NIH Predoctoral Training Program. Tuition and stipend support is requested for continuing support at this level. The faculty of the INP's T32 Jointly Sponsored NIH Predoctoral Training Program consists of 70 neuroscientists from departments of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS) and the Yale Medical School (YMS). For the 2009-10 academic year there are 39 predoctoral graduate students, of which 33 are from the US or are permanent residents. The INP has two co Directors, Haig Keshishian and Charles Greer, and is supervised by an executive committee representing a cross-section of the neurosciences at Yale. Haig Keshishian serves as program director for the INP's T32 Training Program. The INP receives strong university support, including a salaried administrator, office space, 8 full fellowships with tuition, and stipend supplementation. The doctoral program undergoes provostial-level academic reviews. Students are admitted through a neuroscience admissions committee that is part of the Biological and Biomedical Sciences (BBS) program of Yale. Upon affiliating with the INP the students remain within the interdepartmental program through their graduation. On average over the past funding cycle, 92 US/permanent resident students have applied annually, with 20 offered admission, for an entering class of 6.6 students (2009 class: 5 US students). The INP is actively involved in educating students from underrepresented ethnic and/or racial groups. Since 2005 14% of the US/permanent resident neuroscience students in the program were from these groups. Students are supervised by the co Directors, an executive committee, and advisory committees. All INP students take four core graduate classes in neuroscience and bioethics, three advanced course electives, and two 1st year research rotations. They attend invited seminars, research in progress talks, an annual retreat and attend the Society for Neuroscience meeting at the program's expense. In the 2nd year the students select a doctoral advisor from the pool of participating faculty. They also take the doctoral qualifier examination, which has tutorial, written, and oral components. The students advance to candidacy for the PhD upon defending a prospectus in the 3rd year. All students are provided travel funds to attend and present their work at national meetings. A PhD in Neuroscience is awarded to graduates by the INP.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案是为了继续支持美国国立卫生研究院在耶鲁大学跨部门神经科学计划（INP）的研究生培训。INP是耶鲁大学的跨部门博士课程，目前已有22年。五名学生在第一年和第二年分别由INP联合赞助的NIH博士前培训计划支持。为继续提供这一级别的支助，需要学费和津贴支助。INP的T32联合赞助的NIH博士前培训计划的教师由来自艺术与科学学院（FAS）和耶鲁医学院（YMS）的70名神经科学家组成。2009-10学年有39名博士前研究生，其中33名来自美国或永久居民。INP有两名联合董事，Haig Keshishian和Charles Greer，并由代表耶鲁大学神经科学部门的执行委员会监督。Haig Keshishian担任INP T32培训项目的项目总监。INP得到了强大的大学支持，包括一名受薪管理员，办公空间，8个全额奖学金，学费和津贴补充。博士课程经历教务长级的学术审查。学生通过神经科学招生委员会录取，该委员会是耶鲁大学生物和生物医学科学（BBS）计划的一部分。加入INP后，学生将继续参加跨部门课程，直至毕业。在过去的资助周期中，平均每年有92名美国/永久居民学生申请，其中20人获得入学资格，入学班级为6.6名学生（2009年班级：5名美国学生）。全国土著研究所积极参与教育来自代表性不足的族裔和/或种族群体的学生。自2005年以来，该计划中14%的美国/永久居民神经科学学生来自这些群体。学生由共同董事，执行委员会和咨询委员会监督。所有INP学生参加神经科学和生物伦理学的四个核心研究生课程，三个高级课程选修课和两个第一年的研究轮换。他们参加邀请研讨会，研究进展会谈，年度务虚会，并参加神经科学学会会议在该计划的费用。在第二年，学生从参与教师的池中选择一名博士生导师。他们还参加博士资格考试，包括辅导、笔试和口试。学生们在第三年捍卫招股说明书后，将获得博士学位。所有学生都获得旅费，以便参加全国会议并在会上介绍他们的工作。神经科学博士学位由INP授予毕业生。
