DFCI PSOC致力于传播当前和新产生的进化知识， 癌症的诊断和治疗以及癌症研究的物理科学方法。这是 为我们的教育推广和培训计划奠定基础，旨在加强中心和整合 不同的领域。科学专家和经验丰富的导师将提供丰富的计划，旨在加强 医生和科学家在地区性和非现场设施中的互动和培训 为特定工作组安排研讨会。我们设计了有针对性的方案和个性化的 为教师、博士后、研究生和本科生提供指导，并进行评估和增强 进程。我们的PSOC管理员兼有教育和外联主任的双重角色，并致力于 重新评估所有提供的教育项目的有效性。管理员和PI将在 每周确保目标的实现。作为我们教育和培训计划的一部分，我们将提供 广泛的博士后培训计划，哈佛大学的一门研究生课程，主题是“数学建模” 癌症“，参加哈佛干细胞研究所暑期实习计划，初级研究员 研讨会，一系列研讨会，一次年度会议，每年为我们的PSOC成员举办两次小静修，以及 与PSOC研究界相关的其他研究培训机会。此外，我们还有 创建了针对不同人群的全面外展计划，如患者、高中 学生和普通民众。我们将提供社区讲座，道路研究计划，社会 媒体宣传活动，参与DFCI外展活动，病人系列讲座，并主持妇女 科学会议。我们计划的预期结果是通过以下方式增强专业知识 直接目标是激发新的研究想法和成果，并将其重新纳入PSOC 框架。

The DFCI PSOC is committed to disseminate current and newly generated knowledge of the evolution, diagnosis and treatment of cancer as well as physical sciences approaches to cancer research. This is the basis for our educational outreach and training initiatives designed to enhance the Center and integrate divergent fields. Scientific experts and seasoned mentors will offer a rich program intended to enhance the interaction and training of physicians and scientists both regionally and at off-site facilities from regularly scheduled seminars to specific working groups. We have designed targeted programs and individualized mentorship for faculty, postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students with an evaluation and enhancement process. Our PSOC Administrator has a dual role as the Educational and Outreach Director and is committed to reassessing the effectiveness of all educational programs offered. The Administrator and PIs will meet on a weekly basis to ensure that goals are being met. As part of our education and training program, we will offer an extensive postdoctoral training program, a graduate course at Harvard University on “Mathematical Modeling of Cancer”, participation in the Harvard Stem Cell Institute summer internship program, a Junior Investigator Symposium, a seminar series, an annual meeting, two small retreats yearly for our PSOC members, and additional research training opportunities relevant to the PSOC research community. In addition, we have created a comprehensive outreach program targeting diverse populations such as patients, high school students, and the general public. We will offer community lectures, a Research on the Road program, social media campaign, participation in DFCI outreach initiatives, patient lecture series, and host a Women of Science conference. The expected result of our initiatives is the enhancement of professional knowledge with the immediate goal of stimulating new research ideas and outcomes that integrate back into the PSOC framework.
