DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this training grant continues to be the training of pre and post-doctoral students in the discipline of cancer biology research so that they can participate in finding solutions to the problems associated with human cancer. The approach to this training involves didactic instruction, seminars and laboratory-based research. The training program is interdisciplinary as evidenced by the participation of 36 faculty in twelve different Departments in four different Colleges. The predoctoral trainees will all be in the Cancer Biology Graduate Interdisciplinary Program. Students in the Cancer Biology Graduate Program are required to take specific courses in cancer causation, epidemiology and prevention and treatment. Training for predoctoral students also involves other course requirements including the Cancer Biology Seminar Series, a Science, Society and Ethics course and a Clinical Cancer Biology Experience course. The six predoctoral positions will be awarded to Cancer Biology students who have identified a mentor and have started their dissertation research. They will "be supported by the Training Grant for two years. The training grant also provides stipend support for four postdoctoral fellows. These positions are awarded for two years and are selected by the Trainee Selection Subcommittee as are the six predoctoral trainees from a pool of applicants once a year. The postdoctoral trainees are required to participate in the Cancer Biology Seminar Series, encouraged to take the Clinical Cancer Biology Experience course and to identify a mentoring committee. The research training occurs in laboratories controlled by individual faculty who are in the Colleges of Medicine, Pharmacy Agriculture and Life Sciences or Faculty of Science. These laboratories include common and core facilities provided by individual Departments as well as the Arizona Cancer Center and the Southwest Center for Toxicology. A unique feature of the training program continues to be research training opportunities that emphasize combined laboratory and clinic-based research. The intent of the Cancer Biology T32 Training Program is to train the next generation of cancer researchers who will be successful in preventing and curing human cancers in the 21st century.

描述（由申请人提供）：本培训基金的目标是继续培养癌症生物学研究学科的博士生和博士后，使他们能够参与寻找与人类癌症相关问题的解决方案。这种培训的方法包括教学指导、研讨会和实验室研究。该培训项目是跨学科的，来自四个不同学院的12个不同部门的36名教师参与了培训。博士前受训人员将全部参加癌症生物学研究生跨学科项目。癌症生物学研究生课程要求学生学习癌症病因、流行病学和预防与治疗方面的专门课程。对博士生的培训还包括其他课程要求，包括癌症生物学系列研讨会，科学，社会和伦理课程以及临床癌症生物学体验课程。六个博士前职位将授予已经确定导师并开始论文研究的癌症生物学学生。他们将获得为期两年的培训补助金。培训经费还为4名博士后提供津贴支持。这些职位为期两年，由实习生选拔小组委员会每年一次从申请者中选出六名博士预科实习生。要求博士后学员参加癌症生物学系列研讨会，鼓励参加临床癌症生物学体验课程，并确定指导委员会。研究训练在由医学、药学、农业和生命科学学院或理学院的个别教员控制的实验室中进行。这些实验室包括由各个部门以及亚利桑那癌症中心和西南毒理学中心提供的公共和核心设施。培训计划的一个独特之处在于，研究培训机会仍然强调实验室和临床研究的结合。癌症生物学T32培训计划的目的是培养下一代癌症研究人员，他们将在21世纪成功地预防和治疗人类癌症。
