Faculty who study the neuroscience of hearing and vocal communication at the University of Southern California (USC) established a research training program for predoctoral, postdoctoral, and physician-scientist scholars starting in 2009: the Hearing and Communication Neuroscience (HCN) Training Program. The program brings together a broad spectrum of scientists to enhance inter-disciplinary communication, and offers the advantage of providing research training opportunities that bridge basic science with translational research and clinical applications. The program serves to reinforce research and training interactions between scientists who study basic aspects of hearing and vocal communication in the Dornsife College of Letters, Arts & Sciences, the Keck School of Medicine, and the Viterbi School of Engineering at USC. The program combines the strengths of an outstanding group of researchers, the resources of USC graduate programs in Neuroscience, Development/Stem Cell/Regenerative Medicine, Psychology, and Linguistics, and expertise in clinical otologic excellence provided by the Department of Otolaryngology. The rationale of this proposal is to engage predoctoral, postdoctoral, and physician-scientist trainees in a highly interactive and multi-disciplinary training experience ranging from cell biology to cognitive neuroscience and linguistics that is unfettered by conventional departmental barriers, and to actively facilitate their development as independent scientists. We have successfully filled positions with outstanding predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars during the first ten years of the program. Predoctoral trainees typically join the program during the second year of their graduate training, whereas the level of seniority of post-doctoral trainees participating in the program varies. All trainees receive multi-disciplinary training in all aspects of hearing and communication neuroscience, as well as practical skills that will prepare them for careers in independently-funded research, education, and industry. The ability to expose trainees directly to both cutting-edge research in basic science as well as ongoing clinical research and applications is a major strength of the program.

在南方大学研究听觉和声音交流神经科学的教师 加州（南加州大学）建立了一个研究培训计划，为博士前，博士后，和医生科学家 从2009年开始的学者：听力和沟通神经科学（HCN）培训计划。的 该计划汇集了广泛的科学家，以加强跨学科的沟通，并提供 提供将基础科学与转化研究联系起来的研究培训机会的优势 和临床应用。该计划旨在加强科学家之间的研究和培训互动 谁研究听觉和声乐交流的基本方面，在文学，艺术和 科学，凯克医学院和维特比工程学院在南加州大学。该计划结合 一个优秀的研究人员群体的优势，南加州大学研究生课程的资源， 神经科学，发育/干细胞/再生医学，心理学和语言学，以及以下方面的专业知识 耳鼻喉科提供卓越的临床耳科服务。这项建议的理由是， 从事博士前，博士后，和医生科学家学员在一个高度互动和多学科 从细胞生物学到认知神经科学和语言学的培训经验，不受 这将有助于消除传统的部门壁垒，并积极促进他们作为独立科学家的发展。 我们在前十年成功地填补了优秀的博士前和博士后学者的职位 多年的节目。博士预科生通常在毕业后的第二年加入该项目 培训，而参与该计划的博士后学员的资历水平各不相同。所有学员 接受听力和沟通神经科学各个方面的多学科培训，以及 实用技能，这将为他们在独立资助的研究，教育和行业的职业生涯做好准备。 使学员直接接触基础科学前沿研究和正在进行的临床研究的能力 研究和应用是该计划的主要优势。
