DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Research Training Program in Behavioral and Biomedical Sciences (BBS) at West Virginia University provides advanced research training at the interface of behavioral and biomedical sciences to PhD students planning careers as independent investigators. The BBS Program draws on existing, high-level training in the Biomedical, Psychology, and Public Health PhD Programs and provides added value through a core curriculum consisting of behavioral neuroscience methods, biostatistics, bioinformatics, and epidemiology. Additional training in behavioral and biomedical research is provided through a highly interactive journal club and an extensive seminar series. Specific training and experiential activities also are provided to foster scientific leadership, communication skills, teaching excellence, responsible conduct of research, and cognizance of issues related to human health, physiology, and disease. Structuring the BBS Program to leverage the strengths of the Biomedical, Psychology, and Public Health PhD Programs ensures an experienced and productive preceptor group, a wide range of research training opportunities, and a highly qualified and diverse applicant pool. The BBS Program remains committed to successful recruiting of underrepresented minority, disabled, and disadvantaged students; programs and partnerships have been developed to address this issue. The BBS Program provides a vehicle for training the next generation of behavioral scientists with the intellect, knowledge, training ad courage to address complex research problems with significant

描述（由申请人提供）：西弗吉尼亚大学的行为和生物医学科学研究培训计划（BBS）为计划成为独立研究者的博士生提供行为和生物医学科学界面的高级研究培训。BBS计划利用现有的生物医学、心理学和公共卫生博士课程的高级培训，并通过包括行为神经科学方法、生物统计学、生物信息学和流行病学在内的核心课程提供附加价值。通过高度互动的期刊俱乐部和广泛的系列研讨会，提供行为和生物医学研究方面的额外培训。还提供具体的培训和体验活动，以培养科学领导能力、沟通技巧、卓越的教学、负责任的研究行为，以及对与人类健康、生理学和疾病有关的问题的认识。构建BBS项目以利用生物医学、心理学和公共卫生博士项目的优势，确保有一个经验丰富、富有成效的导师团队，广泛的研究培训机会，以及高素质和多样化的申请人群体。BBS项目仍然致力于成功招募弱势群体、残疾和弱势群体的学生；为解决这一问题制定了各种方案和伙伴关系。BBS计划为培养下一代行为科学家提供了一种工具，他们具备智力、知识、训练和勇气，能够解决具有重大意义的复杂研究问题
