Cancer Biology Training Program

描述（由申请人提供）：在密歇根大学的癌症生物学培训计划（该计划），目前在其第二十年，是一个跨学科的计划，其中心目标是培养特殊的初级研究人员，以解决与人类癌症相关的基本生物学问题。该计划的优势在于：来自密歇根大学14个基础科学和临床部门的40名教师的参与;与密歇根大学综合癌症中心的联系;以及参与生物医学科学计划，通过该计划招募研究生。该计划培养博士前和博士后学者，研究机会集中在癌症生物学领域的广泛选择。此外，它为这些学员提供教学课程和其他方案活动，使他们接触到癌症研究的深度和广度。博士后将完成博士学位。物理或生物科学学位，或已完成医学博士学位。℃下博士前学生将包括最近批准的癌症生物学博士课程的学生子集。所有学员都对从事癌症相关研究的某个方面的职业感兴趣。博士前培训生将有望毕业到优秀的博士后职位，而博士后培训生应承担领导的学术和研究职位。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Cancer Biology Training Program (the Program) at The University of Michigan, currently in its twentieth year, is an interdisciplinary program whose central goal is to train exceptional junior investigators to address fundamental biological problems related to human cancer. The Program draws its strength from: the participation of 40 faculty members from 14 basic science and clinical departments within The University of Michigan; its association with The University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center; and its involvement with the Program in Biomedical Sciences, through which graduate students are recruited to the Program. The Program trains both predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars with research opportunities focusing on a wide choice of topics in the field of cancer biology. In addition, it provides these trainees with didactic coursework and other programmatic activities that expose them to the depth and breadth of cancer research. Postdoctoral fellows will have completed a Ph.D. degree in one of the physical or biological sciences, or have completed an M.D. degree. Predoctoral students will comprise a subset of students accepted into the recently-approved Doctoral Program in Cancer Biology. All trainees have a significant interest in pursuing a career in some aspect of cancer-related research. Predoctoral trainees will be expected to graduate to outstanding postdoctoral positions, while postdoctoral trainees should assume leading academic and research positions.
