Project Summary Progress towards understanding mechanisms of hearing, and the treatment of hearing deficits, requires an integrated effort from multiple disciplines. The Center for Hearing Research (CHR) at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) maintains an interdisciplinary training program that takes advantage of the breadth and depth of hearing research at UCI to train new scientists broadly across multiple disciplines and deeply in one. The 21 training faculty in CHR span six departments in five Schools (primary appointments in Biological Sciences, Medicine, Social Sciences and Education; joint appointments in Engineering) with research interests that cover a broad range of levels (genes, molecules, cells, systems and behavior) and experimental approaches (cell and molecular biology, neurophysiology, psychoacoustics, computation, human imaging, human learning, medical device engineering). Thus, CHR is ideally positioned to offer interdisciplinary training. We request support for three predoctoral students and two postdoctoral researchers including medical residents. The didactic core of the training program is a course in Auditory Neuroscience, which covers the auditory system from cells to psychoacoustics, cochlea to cortex, and basic to clinical sciences. Mandatory features of the training program that encourage interdisciplinary interactions are participation in all CHR activities (e.g., seminar series, journal club and annual conferences), presentations to scientifically diverse audiences, and regular meetings with basic and clinical scientists. The normal period of support for trainees is two years. Predoctoral trainees normally enter the program in their second year of graduate study and are required to take a course on grant writing and prepare an NRSA proposal. The program is managed by the Program Director and an Executive Committee, and will foster development of trainees’ intellectual, technical and professional skills needed to pursue successful careers in hearing research.

项目摘要 在理解听力机制和治疗听力障碍方面的进展需要一个 来自多个学科的综合努力。加州大学听力研究中心(CHR) 加州欧文分校(UCI)维持着一项跨学科培训计划，该计划利用广度和 UCI的听力深度研究，以培养跨多个学科的新科学家，并深入其中一个学科。 CHR的21个培训教员分布在五所学校的六个系(生物专业的初级职位 科学、医学、社会科学和教育；工程学联合任命)具有研究兴趣 涵盖广泛的层面(基因、分子、细胞、系统和行为)和实验 方法(细胞和分子生物学、神经生理学、心理声学、计算、人体成像、 人类学习、医疗器械工程)。因此，CHR是提供跨学科培训的理想选择。 我们请求资助三名博士后学生和两名博士后研究人员，其中包括医学 居民。培训计划的教学核心是听神经科学课程，该课程涵盖 听觉系统，从细胞到心理声学，从耳蜗学到皮质，以及临床科学的基础。强制性 鼓励跨学科互动的培训计划的特点是参与所有CHR 活动(例如，研讨会系列、期刊俱乐部和年度会议)，以科学多样化的方式进行演讲 观众，以及与基础和临床科学家的定期会议。对学员的正常支持期限为 两年了。博士前实习生通常在研究生学习的第二年进入该项目，并 需要参加一门关于拨款撰写的课程，并准备一份NRSA建议书。该计划由 计划主任和执行委员会，并将促进受训人员的智力、技术 以及在听力研究领域追求成功事业所需的专业技能。
