Chemistry-Biology Interface Training Grant

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案要求继续支持范德比尔特大学的化学-生物学接口（CBI）培训计划。 来自文理学院和医学院五个系的二十八名教师将担任该计划的导师。 重要的生物学培训将提供给学生接受合成/机械化学的深入培训，并在合成/机械化学的重要培训将提供给学生接受生物科学的深入培训。 培训计划的亮点包括化学生物学课程，专业培训选修课程，化学生物学互动研讨会系列，年度研究务虚会和深入的实验室研究经验。 学生将在核心学科中有良好的基础，并在补充领域中得到充分的培训，使他们能够在多学科环境中有效地工作。 请求为8名受训人员提供支助。 学员将获得博士学位。在生物化学系（6名导师）、化学系（13名导师）、微生物学和免疫学系（1名导师）、分子生理学和生物物理学系（1名导师）和药理学系（7名导师）与导师一起工作。外行语言描述：生物技术、药物发现和相关生命科学领域的进步需要化学和生物学领域之间的思想和知识交流。 该培训计划的一个目标是培养未来一代的科学家，他们将化学和生物学的理解应用于生物医学相关问题。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests continuing support for a Chemistry-Biology Interface (CBI) Training Program at Vanderbilt University. Twenty eight faculty preceptors from five departments in the College of Arts and Sciences and in the School of Medicine will serve as mentors for the Program. Significant biological training will be provided to students receiving in-depth training in synthetic/mechanistic chemistry and significant training in synthetic/mechanistic chemistry will be provided to students receiving in-depth training in the biological sciences. Highlights of the training program include a chemical biology curriculum, elective courses for specialized training, and an interactive seminar series in chemical biology, an annual research retreat and an in-depth laboratory research experience. Students will be well-grounded in a core discipline and sufficiently well-trained in complementary fields to allow them to work effectively in a multi-disciplinary environment. Support for eight trainees is requested. Trainees will obtain Ph.D. degrees working with preceptors in the Departments of Biochemistry (6 preceptors), Chemistry (13 preceptors), Microbiology and Immunology (1 preceptor), Molecular Physiology and Biophysics (1 preceptor) and Pharmacology (7 preceptors). Lay language description: Advances in biotechnology, drug discovery and related life science fields require the exchange of ideas and knowledge between the fields of chemistry and biology. One objective of this training program is to develop a future generation of scientists who apply an understanding of chemistry and biology to biomedical related problems.
