DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The UCSF Graduate Program in Biomedical Sciences is an interdisciplinary program that trains students for research careers investigating the molecular basis of tissue and organ function in health and disease. It offers a novel integrative curriculum, designed specifically for graduate students, which provides a foundation in cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, and biochemistry as applied to research problems in human developmental biology, physiology, and disease. Training is supported by laboratory rotations, journal clubs, and research seminars. The program's faculty consists of 95 members drawn from both basic science and clinical departments. Their research interests are broad, but focused into eight thematic areas: Cancer Biology and Cell Signaling, Genetics and Genomics, Vascular and Cardiac Biology, Developmental and Stem Cell Biology, Immunology, Microbial Pathogenesis and Virology, Neuroscience, and Tissue/Organ Biology and Endocrinology. Trainees are chosen from a national applicant pool, with special effort to include underrepresented minorities. The interdisciplinary spirit of the program reflects the interactive scientific culture at UCSF.

描述(由申请者提供)：加州大学旧金山分校生物医学科学研究生项目是一个跨学科的项目，培训学生从事研究职业，研究健康和疾病中组织和器官功能的分子基础。它提供了一门专门为研究生设计的新的综合课程，提供了细胞生物学、分子生物学、遗传学和生物化学的基础，应用于人类发育生物学、生理学和疾病的研究问题。培训由实验室轮换、期刊俱乐部和研究研讨会提供支持。该项目的教职员工由95名来自基础科学和临床部门的成员组成。他们的研究兴趣广泛，但主要集中在八个主题领域：癌症生物学和细胞信号、遗传学和基因组学、血管和心脏生物学、发育和干细胞生物学、免疫学、微生物病因学和病毒学、神经科学以及组织/器官生物学和内分泌学。学员是从国家申请者库中挑选出来的，特别努力包括代表人数不足的少数族裔。该项目的跨学科精神反映了加州大学旧金山分校的互动科学文化。
