Multidisciplinary research at the Chemistry: Biology interface has expanded so rapidly in the past few decades that such training is now crucial for the development of the next generation of chemists and biologists. The objective of the proposed training program is to train predoctoral graduate students in the Chemistry and Biochemistry/Biophysics departments at Texas A7883892 University in research at the Chemistry: Biology Interface (CBI). Since its inception in 1994, this NIH-sponsored program has played a major role in the successful training of our graduate students in the molecular life sciences. The program currently involves 21 faculty members, with highly diverse research interests including molecular enzymology, macromolecular interactions, organic and inorganic synthesis, bioanalysis, metabolism, structure/function relationships, and computational mechanistic studies. Students in the CBI program choose one of these trainers as their primary research advisor, and enroll in a core group of required courses. CBI students enroll in a weekly journal club in which research topics from these areas are discussed. They also enroll in a class on the Ethical conduct of research. The CBI program sponsors 2 symposia annually in which trainees present their research results. Well-known external speakers are also invited as part of the training program. Towards the end of this 2-year program, students apply to attend a summer workshop course at an external location in which classroom and laboratory instruction are combined in an intense scientific setting. Students are also encouraged to attend a scientific conference annually.

多学科研究在化学：生物学接口 在过去的几十年里，这种培训发展得如此迅速， 下一代的化学家和生物学家。拟议培训方案的目标是 培养化学和生物化学/生物物理学系的博士前研究生， 德克萨斯大学A7883892在化学研究：生物学接口（CBI）。自1994年成立以来， 这个由美国国立卫生研究院赞助的项目在成功培养我们的研究生方面发挥了重要作用 在分子生命科学中。该计划目前涉及21名教师，具有高度多样性 研究方向包括分子酶学、大分子相互作用、有机和无机 合成、生物分析、代谢、结构/功能关系和计算机制 问题研究CBI项目的学生选择其中一名培训师作为他们的主要研究顾问， 并参加核心必修课。CBI的学生参加了每周一次的期刊俱乐部， 从这些领域的研究课题进行了讨论。他们还参加了一个关于道德行为的课程， research. CBI计划每年赞助2次研讨会，学员在研讨会上介绍他们的研究 结果作为培训计划的一部分，还邀请了知名的外部演讲者。朝向 这个为期2年的计划结束时，学生申请参加在外部位置的夏季研讨会课程 在这种教学中，课堂教学和实验室教学结合在一个紧张的科学环境中。学生 还鼓励他们每年参加一次科学会议。
