 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The muscle community at the University of Pennsylvania has established an outstanding training program in Muscle Biology and Muscle Disease, supported in part by the T32 mechanism. Members of the Penn community are known world-wide for excellence in muscle research, and this program facilitates collaborative training opportunities for predoctoral students and postdoctoral fellows. Our training program enables trainees to work in laboratories directed by principal investigators who are leaders in the study of the cell biology, developmental biology, physiology, and/or pathology of muscle. Although the range of interests and expertise of the trainers on this grant is broad, the training is focused on elucidating the mechanisms of muscle function and disease. The program is designed to take advantage of the highly collaborative nature of the faculty, thus providing the trainees with the opportunity to integrate molecular and physiological aspects of muscle biology into their research. This training diversity provides an unparalleled training environment in the area of muscle biology. This is evidenced by the many prominent scientists around the world who have trained in this field at the University of Pennsylvania.

 描述（由申请人提供）：宾夕法尼亚大学的肌肉社区已经建立了一个优秀的肌肉生物学和肌肉疾病训练计划，部分由T32机制支持。宾夕法尼亚大学社区的成员在肌肉研究方面的卓越成就享誉全球，该计划为博士前学生和博士后研究员提供了合作培训机会。我们的培训计划使学员能够在主要研究人员指导的实验室工作，这些研究人员是细胞生物学，发育生物学，生理学和/或肌肉病理学研究的领导者。虽然培训者的兴趣和专业知识范围很广，但培训的重点是 阐明肌肉功能和疾病的机制。该计划旨在利用教师的高度协作性，从而为学员提供将肌肉生物学的分子和生理学方面整合到他们的研究中的机会。这种训练的多样性为肌肉生物学领域提供了无与伦比的训练环境。世界各地许多杰出的科学家都在宾夕法尼亚大学接受过这一领域的培训，这证明了这一点。
