Training Program in Chemistry - Interface with Biology

伊利诺伊大学化学学院(SCS)建议实施一项培训 化学-生物学接口课程，每年招收10名博士前学生(2年级和5年级 三年级学生)。该计划将通过在课堂和实验室分享经验， 培养出一批化学家、化学和生物分子工程师以及生物学家，他们拥有共同的 语言。项目毕业生将准备在工业和学术界担任领导职位，并 将能够在多学科团队中发挥作用，准备在生物学和 医药。来自SCS两个系和分子与细胞学院四个系的二十五名教员 生物-化学、化学与生物分子工程、微生物学、生物化学、细胞与结构 生物学和分子与综合生理学-在化学-生物学界面工作的人将担任 教职员工导师。被主办部门的博士项目录取的有才华的学生将形成 该项目的候选人。在完成两项课程后，他们将获得所在系的博士学位 该系计划的要求和完成CBI计划的课程顺序将 花四到五年的时间。未来的学生将从全国范围内的大学中招收。 将通过几个UIUC校园项目招收代表不足的少数族裔学生 (Merge，Hurf，SROP)，通过参加SACNAS和ACBRMS会议，通过与 MARC计划主任，并通过与拥有大量少数族裔的机构建立有针对性的伙伴关系 注册人数。生物化学本科生的学习也将为CBI培训提供一条途径。 全国范围内的计划。罗杰·亚当斯实验室、化学和生命科学实验室、诺伊斯实验室和 即将建成的基因组生物学研究所拥有教员实验室、研讨会房间、学生和 制造设施。贝克曼研究所和生物技术中心拥有额外的设施。

The School of Chemical Sciences (SCS) at the University of Illinois proposes to implement a training program at the Chemistry - Biology interface that will enroll 10 predoctoral students per year (5 2nd yr and 5 3rd yr students). The program will, through shared experiences in the classroom and in the laboratory, produce a cadre of chemists, chemical and biomolecular engineers, and biologists who share a common language. Program graduates will be prepared to assume leadership positions in industry and academe and will be capable of functioning in multidisciplinary teams poised to make major advances in biology and medicine. Twenty-five faculty from two deparments in the SCS and four in the School of Molecular & Cellular Biology - Chemistry, Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Cell & Structural Biology, and Molecular & Integrative Physiology- who work at the chemistry-biology interface will serve as faculty mentors. Talented students admitted to the host departments' doctoral programs will form the pool of candidates for the program. They will receive the PhD from their department after completing both the requirements for that department's program and the course sequence for the CBI.Program completion will take between four and five years. Prospective students will be recruited from among universities nationwide. Underrepresented minority students will be recruited through several UIUC campus-based programs (MERGE, HURF, SROP), through attendance at SACNAS and ACBRMS meetings, through interaction with MARC program directors, and through targeted partnerships with institutions having large minority enrollments. A biological-chemistry undergraduate concentration will also provide a pipeline into CBI training programs nationwide. Roger Adams Lab, the Chemistry and Life Sciences Laboratory, Noyes Lab, and the soon-to-be-completed Institute for Genomic Biology house faculty laboratories, seminar rooms, student and fabrication facilities. The Beckman Institute and the Biotechnology Center house additional facilities.
