DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Minnesota Craniofacial Research Training Program is a direct response to PAR-10-170, Institutional Training for a Dental and Craniofacial Research Workforce (T90/R90), and the national need to train the next generation of biomedical scientists to work on significant problems in craniofacial, dental, and oral health research. The mission of the program is to engage trainees in novel, mentored research that is fundamental to biology and human health, and translational research that expands the frontiers and scope of craniofacial, dental, and oral health. To foster our mission and ensure strong mentorship and inter-disciplinary research training, a non-hierarchical and highly consultative administrative structure is in place. The University of Minnesota also serves as an international center for training in craniofacial, dental, and oral health research in partnership with six international dental schools in Europe, Canada and South America. Trainees engage in research training opportunities with groups of experienced, dedicated and well-supported mentors in Neuroscience, Microbiology and Immunology; Cancer Biology; Developmental Biology, Molecular Genetics, and Stem Cells; Biophysical Sciences; Nanotechnology, Materials Sciences, and Tissue Engineering; and Genomics, Proteomics, Structural Biology, and Computational Biology. Trainee T90 programmatic options include DDS/PhD (DSTP), predoctoral PhD, postdoctoral fellows, and R90 postdoctoral PhD for international dental clinicians. For non-clinician PhDs, a new program in Oral Pathobiology has been created, providing basic mechanisms with clinical correlates and hypothesis generation. The Minnesota Craniofacial Research Training program builds upon our considerable training experience, outstanding applicant pools and partnerships, new initiatives to recruit and retain DSTP fellows, and appreciation for creative mentored research training. Our alumni work at the state-of-the-art to expand the frontiers of biology and craniofacial, dental, and oral health research.

描述(由申请人提供)：明尼苏达州颅面研究培训计划是对PAR-10-170、牙科和颅面研究工作人员机构培训(T90/R90)的直接响应，以及国家需要培训下一代生物医学科学家从事颅面、牙齿和口腔健康研究中的重大问题。该计划的使命是让学员参与对生物学和人类健康至关重要的新颖、有指导的研究，以及扩大颅面、牙科和口腔健康的前沿和范围的转化性研究。为了促进我们的使命，并确保强有力的指导和跨学科研究培训，建立了一个不分等级、高度协商的行政结构。明尼苏达大学还与欧洲、加拿大和南美的六所国际牙科学校合作，成为颅面、牙科和口腔健康研究的国际培训中心。学员与经验丰富、专注并得到良好支持的导师团队一起进行研究培训，这些导师涉及神经科学、微生物学和免疫学；癌症生物学；发育生物学、分子遗传学和干细胞；生物物理科学；纳米技术、材料科学和组织工程；以及基因组学、蛋白质组学、结构生物学和计算生物学。学员T90课程选项包括DDS/PhD(DSTP)、博士后博士后、博士后研究员和面向国际牙科临床医生的R90博士后博士后。对于非临床医生博士，已经创建了一个新的口腔病理生物学课程，提供了具有临床相关性和假设生成的基本机制。明尼苏达州颅面研究培训计划建立在我们丰富的培训经验、出色的申请者人才库和合作伙伴关系、招募和保留DSTP研究员的新举措以及对创造性指导研究培训的赞赏基础上。我们的校友致力于拓展生物学和颅面、牙科和口腔健康研究的前沿。
