This competitive grant renewal requests a continuation of support for years 26-30 for some of the predoctoral students in the Brown University Graduate Program in Molecular Biology, Cell Biology and Biochemistry (MCB). Students are admitted to this interdisciplinary graduate program on the basis of their academic qualifications and research potential, judged from college transcripts, letters of recommendation, a personal essay, the Graduate Record Examination, and an interview. Trainees will be chosen from the 56 students in the MCBProgram, usually after 1-2years of graduate study at Brown. Funds are requested to maintain our current level of 7 trainees (years 1 to 3), and modest growth to 8 trainees (year 4) and 9 trainees (year 5). Training will be appropriate for careers in both laboratory research and academic instruction. The breadth of training will be an asset to trainees in matching later career choices to national needs. The 32 faculty trainers have been selected from eight Departments of the Division of Biology and Medicine and from the Department of Chemistry. The number of trainers is expected to increase to 59 due to new faculty hires and the newjoint Brown-Marine BiologicalLaboratory graduate program. The interdisciplinary training program is organized in recognition of the fact that current investigations in molecular and cell biology today draw on conceptual and experimental approaches merged from biochemistry and structural biology, molecular biology, cell biology, developmental biology, genetics and genomics, immunologyand virology. The students' specialty training will be in any one of these areas, building on a foundationwhich includes elements of all. This common foundation will be achieved by core courses, distribution courses and a program of seminars, colloquia and journal clubs in which trainees, postdoctoral associates and faculty participate. The major requirement of the Program is original laboratory research leading to the doctoral thesis. The Program also includes a one year requirement for teaching designed to improve communication skills. The unified structure of the Division of Biology and Medicine provides an unusual opportunity for interdisciplinary studies bridging basic science and clinical applications. All facilities of the Division of Biology and Medicine, Department of Chemistry and general facilities of Brown University are available for this training program. The successful careers in academia and research of our Ph.D. graduate is testimony to the excellenceof our training program.

这种竞争性赠款的延长要求在26-30年期间继续支持一些 布朗大学分子生物学，细胞生物学和生物学研究生课程的博士前学生。 生物化学（MCB）。学生被录取到这个跨学科的研究生课程的基础上，他们 学历和研究潜力，从大学成绩单，推荐信， 个人论文、研究生入学考试和面试。学员将从56名 学生在MCB计划，通常在布朗大学研究生学习1- 2年后。请拨资金用于 保持我们目前的7名学员水平（1至3年），并适度增长至8名学员（4年）和9名学员（4年）。 实习生（5年级）。培训将适合在实验室研究和 学术指导培训的广度将是学员在匹配以后职业选择方面的一项资产 国家的需要。 32名教员培训员是从生物学系的八个系中挑选出来的， 医学系和化学系。预计培训员人数将增加到59人， 新的教职员工和新的布朗海洋生物实验室联合研究生项目。的 组织跨学科培训计划是为了认识到，目前的调查， 今天的分子和细胞生物学借鉴了概念和实验方法， 生物化学和结构生物学，分子生物学，细胞生物学，发育生物学，遗传学和 genomics基因，immunology免疫and virology病毒.学生的专业培训将在这些领域中的任何一个， building建设on a foundation基础which哪一个includes包括elements元素of all.这一共同基础将通过核心 课程、分发课程和研讨会、座谈会和期刊俱乐部方案， 博士后同事和教师参加。该计划的主要要求是原始实验室 导致博士论文的研究。该计划还包括一年的教学要求 旨在提高沟通技巧。生物学和医学部的统一结构 为跨学科研究提供了一个难得的机会， 应用.生物医学系、化学系和综合系的所有设施 布朗大学的设施可用于此培训计划。 我们的博士在学术界和研究方面的成功职业生涯。毕业生是优秀的证明 我们的训练计划。
