Project Summary/Abstract This Predoctoral Training Program is designed to provide a broad education in the Pharmacological Sciences leading to the Ph.D. degree. The Pharmacological Sciences Training Program (PSTP) is centered in the Department of Pharmacology and Chemical Biology at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and is closely associated with the Molecular Pharmacology Graduate Program (MPGP a.k.a. MPTP), and includes faculty from three schools within the University and ten departments including Anesthesiology, Chemistry, Immunology, Medicine, Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, Neurobiology, Neurology, Otolaryngology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Structural Biology. Graduate students entering this program are typically first recruited into the Interdisciplinary Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program where they join a program that includes core didactic education in biomedical sciences, scientific ethics and statistics and research rotations. The training program provides graduate coursework in the essential elements of modern pharmacology including neuropharmacology, cancer pharmacology, cardiovascular pharmacology, signal transduction and drug discovery and also elements of quantitative pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and drug metabolism. With the close guidance of the director and vice-director, students are encouraged to work with a select faculty who are dedicated to providing the very best environments to conduct rigorous research of the highest integrity. A culture of inclusivity and support for myriad career tracks is a requirement for trainee laboratories and a mentor training program in these areas is now required as is a course in career exploration that also provides individualized coaching. Students choose mentors from one of six research areas: Cancer Pharmacology, Cell and Organ System Pharmacology, Drug Discovery, Neuropharmacology, Signal Transduction and Structural Pharmacology. Following completion of the comprehensive exam and a dissertation proposal, students are engaged full time in research that promotes critical thinking, collaboration, co-mentorship and core training in experimental design. The PSTP thus provides a contemporary and exciting training opportunity for motivated students within a rigorous and nurturing environment and aims to generate Ph.D. graduates of the highest level of technical and theoretical preparedness.

项目总结/摘要 该博士前培训计划旨在提供药理学科学的广泛教育 最终获得博士学位。℃下药理学科学培训计划（PSTP）集中在 匹兹堡大学医学院药理学和化学生物学系， 与分子药理学研究生项目（MPGP a.k.a. MPTP），包括 教师来自大学内的三个学院和十个部门，包括麻醉学，化学， 免疫学，医学，微生物学和分子遗传学，神经生物学，神经病学，耳鼻喉科， 药物科学和结构生物学。进入这个项目的研究生通常是第一个 招募到跨学科生物医学科学研究生课程，他们加入了一个计划， 包括生物医学科学、科学道德和统计学以及研究轮换方面的核心教学教育。 该培训计划提供现代药理学基本要素的研究生课程 包括神经药理学、癌症药理学、心血管药理学、信号转导和 药物发现以及定量药代动力学、药效学和药物代谢的要素。 在主任和副主任的密切指导下，鼓励学生与精选的教师合作 他们致力于提供最好的环境来进行最高水平的严格研究， 完整包容性文化和对各种职业轨道的支持是实习生实验室的要求 现在需要在这些领域进行导师培训， 提供个性化辅导。学生从六个研究领域之一选择导师：癌症 药理学，细胞和器官系统药理学，药物发现，神经药理学，信号 转导和结构药理学。在完成综合考试和 论文提案，学生全职从事研究，促进批判性思维，协作， 共同指导和实验设计的核心培训。因此，PSTP提供了一个当代和令人兴奋的 在一个严格和培育的环境中为有动力的学生提供培训机会，旨在产生 博士技术和理论准备的最高水平的毕业生。
