项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract The Neurosciences Graduate Program (NGP) at UC San Diego (UCSD) is committed to training the next generation of neuroscience leaders. The NGP brings together world-class research institutions and laboratories at UCSD, The Salk Institute, The Scripps Research Institute, and the Sanford Burnham Institute, to create one of the largest and most diverse neuroscience environments in the world. The proposed training program combines this environment with a progressive, quantitatively rigorous curriculum covering multiple neuroscience disciplines, mentored research with world-leading investigators, collaborative opportunities across clinical and academic settings, and mentored professional development. Research productivity and placement of prior NGP trainees is outstanding, with most trainees continuing in scientific research and higher education. The NGP consistently ranks among the top graduate programs in US. The proposed training program supports 1st and 2nd-year NGP students and is endorsed by strong institutional support. The program reinforces close, productive interactions between students and faculty. Incoming students receive intensive hands-on laboratory training in a two-week Boot Camp that provides a unique bonding experience. Students choose thesis labs after completing the core courses and research lab rotations in the first year. Student progress is closely monitored through formal evaluations, with individually tailored career advising and mentorship. Scientific interactions among students and faculty are facilitated through student-run journal clubs, discussion courses, student talks, colloquia, outreach programs, recruitment activities, and an annual retreat. The NGP has met prior goals to increase program size by enhancing institutional support, and to strengthen recruitment and retention of underrepresented students. Representation of URM students in the NGP is now the highest among all UCSD STEM graduate programs, and the overall size of the program has increased by nearly 40%, to 102 PhD students, since 2012, while recruitment and admission have remained highly competitive (applications have doubled since 2007). Our guiding mission to develop tomorrow's leading neuroscientists is founded on rigorous skills in experimental design, statistical methodology and quantitative reasoning. Over the next five years, the NGP has set a goal to strengthen and comprehensively integrate the tenets of quantitative rigor, reproducibility, and research transparency into all aspects of the training program. This includes broadening the quantitative scope of the NGP by expanding the successful Computational Neuroscience specialization, modifying curricula, and altering mentoring practices to anticipate future challenges for data collection, access, and analysis. Our goal is a broad interdisciplinary neuroscience training environment that emphasizes strong quantitative skills coupled to rigorous experimental design and statistical methodology.

项目摘要/摘要加州大学圣地亚哥分校神经科学研究生项目(NGP)致力于培养下一代一代神经科学领袖。NGP汇聚了世界级的研究机构和实验室在加州大学圣地亚哥分校，索尔克研究所，斯克里普斯研究所和桑福德·伯纳姆研究所，创建了一个世界上最大和最多样化的神经科学环境。拟议的培训计划将这种环境与进步的、数量上严格的课程结合起来，涵盖多种神经科学学科，与世界领先的研究人员一起指导研究，跨临床和学术设置，并指导专业发展。以前的NGP的研究效率和位置学员表现突出，大部分学员继续从事科研和高等教育。NGP 一直位居美国顶尖研究生项目之列。拟议的培训方案支持第一个和该项目面向二年级的NGP学生，并得到了机构的大力支持。该计划加强了封闭的、高效的师生之间的互动。即将入学的学生在实验室接受强化动手培训为期两周的训练营，提供独特的联系体验。学生在完成后选择论文实验室第一年的核心课程和研究实验室轮换。学生的进步通过正式的评估，并提供量身定做的职业咨询和指导。学生和学生之间的科学互动通过学生开办的期刊俱乐部、讨论课程、学生演讲、座谈、外展等方式为教师提供便利计划、招募活动和年度务虚会。NGP已经达到了增加计划规模的先前目标通过加强机构支持，并加强招收和留住人数偏低的学生。 URM学生在NGP中的代表性现在是所有加州大学圣迭戈分校STEM研究生课程中最高的，以及自2012年以来，该项目的总体规模增长了近40%，达到102名博士生，同时招聘录取仍然竞争激烈(申请人数自2007年以来翻了一番)。我们的指导使命培养未来领先的神经科学家是建立在严谨的实验设计、统计学技能的基础上的方法论和定量推理。在未来五年，NGP已经制定了一个目标，以加强和将定量严谨、可重复性和研究透明度的原则全面整合到所有培训计划的各个方面。这包括通过扩大NGP的数量范围成功的计算神经科学专业化，修改课程，改变指导实践，以预测未来在数据收集、访问和分析方面的挑战。我们的目标是广泛的跨学科神经科学培训环境，强调强大的量化技能与严格的实验相结合设计和统计方法。
