DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Chemistry-Biochemistry-Biology Interface (CBBI) Program at the University of Notre Dame is an established NIH-funded program, which trains graduate students in a multidisciplinary environment and provides them with significant training in a cross-discipline at the interface of chemistry, biochemistry, and biology. The goal of the CBBI Program is to produce Ph.D. scientists who have in-depth training in the student's core discipline, cross-discipline training to work effectively at the interface, and enhanced interdisciplinary communication skills. The CBBI Program has been successful and has established an outstanding training environment for our Ph.D. students. During the past four years, we have trained 25 students (who were recipients of 41 one-year fellowships, 18 provided by the NIH and 23 by Notre Dame in matching support of this training grant), including 4 underrepresented minorities (URMs). Six trainees have completed the program with Ph.D. degrees, an additional 5 trainees will be receiving their Ph.D. degrees in 2011, and the remaining trainees are on track to complete their Ph.D. degrees. The characteristics of the CBBI Program include: a large applicant pool of highly qualified candidates, a strong record of collaborative and multidisciplinary research, a diverse and strong group of experienced, productive, and federally-funded investigators available to serve as research mentors, a hallmark extended cross-disciplinary research internship outside the mentor's laboratory, training supplementation with multidisciplinary seminars, trainee meetings, and an annual symposium, experienced and effective program administration, mechanisms for continuous evaluation and improvement of the training program, professional development and career placement, a summer research program to attract and retain underrepresented minorities, excellent research facilities, and strong institutional commitment. We propose to continue to train Ph.D. scientists with the skills and expertise to solve complex biomedical problems, regardless of discipline. The University of Notre Dame enthusiastically supports this training program, and will continue to provide a generous fellowship match and additional funds in support of the CBBI Program upon its funding renewal by the NIH.

描述（由申请人提供）：圣母大学的化学-生物化学-生物学接口（CBBI）项目是一项由 NIH 资助的项目，该项目在多学科环境中培养研究生，并为他们提供化学、生物化学和生物学交叉学科的重要培训。 CBBI 项目的目标是培养博士学位。科学家们在学生的核心学科上接受过深入的培训，在跨学科的界面上进行有效的工作训练，并增强了跨学科的沟通能力。 CBBI项目取得了成功，为我们的博士生建立了良好的培养环境。学生。在过去四年中，我们培训了 25 名学生（他们获得了 41 名一年期奖学金，其中 18 名由 NIH 提供，23 名由圣母大学提供，以匹配培训补助金），其中包括 4 名代表性不足的少数族裔 (URM)。六名学员已完成该计划并获得博士学位。学位，另外 5 名学员将获得博士学位。 2011 年，其余学员即将完成博士学位。度。 CBBI 计划的特点包括：大量高素质候选人、良好的协作和多学科研究记录、由经验丰富、富有成效且由联邦政府资助的研究导师组成的多元化强大团队、导师实验室外的标志性扩展跨学科研究实习、以多学科研讨会、实习生会议和年度研讨会作为培训补充，经验丰富 有效的项目管理、持续评估和改进培训项目的机制、专业发展和职业安置、吸引和留住代表性不足的少数群体的夏季研究项目、优良的研究设施和强有力的机构承诺。我们建议继续培养博士。具有解决复杂生物医学问题的技能和专业知识的科学家，无论学科如何。圣母大学热心支持该培训项目，并将在 NIH 续签资助后继续提供慷慨的奖学金和额外资金支持 CBBI 项目。
