DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an application for a new multidisciplinary pre-doctoral training program at Stanford University in biomedical imaging technologies. Our mission is to train the next generation of researchers in and inventors of biomedical imaging technology. Imaging technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace generating new techniques in research today that will become the standard of care for tomorrow. There is a high need for trained researchers in this field to fill positions in academia, industry, and government. Stanford University has a unique multidisciplinary research effort in biomedical imaging, spanning magnetic resonance, computed tomography and radiography, radionucline and optical methods for molecular imaging, ultrasound, and hybrid imaging such as X- ray/MR and PET/MR, as well as image processing and analysis for diagnosis, radiation therapy, and science. The training program would draw and fund students from six different degree granting programs to train in biomedical imaging technology with faculty from 8 different departments and Interdepartmental Programs. Two students would be recruited the first year and three new students would be recruited in each subsequent year. Each trainee would be funded for the initial two years of their considerably longer PhD programs, so two students would be funded in the first year, five in the second year, and six in each subsequent year. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Our mission is to train the next generation of researchers and inventors of biomedical imaging technology. Imaging technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace generating new techniques in research today that will become the standard of care for tomorrow. There is a high need for trained researchers in this field to fill positions in academia, industry, and government.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是斯坦福大学生物医学成像技术新多学科博士前培训项目的申请。我们的使命是培养下一代生物医学成像技术的研究人员和发明者。成像技术继续以快速的速度发展，在今天的研究中产生了新的技术，这些技术将成为明天的护理标准。这一领域对训练有素的研究人员有很高的需求，以填补学术界、工业界和政府的职位。斯坦福大学在生物医学成像方面拥有独特的多学科研究成果，包括磁共振、计算机断层扫描和放射照相、用于分子成像的放射性核素和光学方法、超声波和混合成像（如X射线/磁共振和PET/磁共振），以及用于诊断、放射治疗和科学的图像处理和分析。该培训项目将吸引并资助来自6个不同学位授予项目的学生，与来自8个不同部门和跨部门项目的教师一起进行生物医学成像技术培训。第一年将招收两名学生，随后每年将招收三名新学生。每位学员将在其相当长的博士课程的前两年获得资助，因此第一年有两名学生获得资助，第二年有五名学生获得资助，随后每年有六名学生获得资助。
