 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Mechanism of Virus-Host Interactions Training Grant is a multidisciplinary training program designed to train and educate pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees in the broad discipline of Virology. This proposal requests continued support for the Virology training program. The faculty is derived from two research institutions, the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) and the NYU School of Medicine (NYUSM). The research training emphasis is directed toward teaching pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees the theory and experimental approaches required for independent scientific investigations. Students learn the molecular mechanisms involved in virus replication and host responses to viral infections. Research training areas also include novel approaches for antiviral strategies and vaccine development against medically relevant viruses. Our trainees are highly successful in attaining independent research positions, peer-reviewed publications, and extramural research funding. Accordingly, five pre-doctoral and five post-doctoral positions are requested. The specific aim of the program is to recruit and provide rigorous training to high caliber students and fellows. The continued support of this program will aid trainees in all phases of their development including understanding scientific method, interpretation of results, presentation of data and conclusions, research ethics, and career guidance. By combining the strengths of an outstanding group of virologists, we have created a world-class virology training program. This program is built upon existing collaborations, including research grants, and joint publications between faculty members at ISMMS and NYUSM. Accordingly, our collaborative training effort has "added value" over single institution or individual based initiatives. The program faculty consists of twenty- eight outstanding virologists who use a diverse array of experimental strategies to study the molecular, cellular, biochemical and immunological interactions of viruses with their hosts.

 描述（由申请人提供）：病毒-宿主相互作用机制培训补助金是一个多学科培训计划，旨在培训和教育广泛的病毒学学科的博士前和博士后学员。该提案要求继续支持病毒学培训计划。该学院来自两个研究机构，西奈山伊坎医学院（ISMMS）和纽约大学医学院（NYUSM）。研究培训的重点是针对教授博士前和博士后学员独立科学调查所需的理论和实验方法。学生学习病毒复制和宿主对病毒感染反应的分子机制。研究培训领域还包括抗病毒战略的新方法和针对医学相关病毒的疫苗开发。 我们的学员在获得独立的研究职位，同行评审的出版物和校外研究资金方面非常成功。因此，需要五个博士前和五个博士后职位。该计划的具体目标是招募和提供严格的培训，以高素质的学生和研究员。该计划的持续支持将帮助学员在其发展的各个阶段，包括理解科学方法，解释结果，介绍数据和结论，研究道德和职业指导。 通过结合一组优秀的病毒学家的优势，我们已经创建了一个世界级的病毒学培训计划。该计划建立在现有的合作基础上，包括研究赠款，以及ISMMS和NYUSM教师之间的联合出版物。因此，我们的合作培训工作比单一机构或个人的举措“增值”。该项目由28位杰出的病毒学家组成 他们使用各种各样的实验策略来研究病毒与宿主的分子、细胞、生物化学和免疫学相互作用。
