Graduate Training In Cellular And Molecular Pathogenesis Of Human Diseases

 描述（由申请人提供）：细胞和分子病理学（CMP）研究生培训计划是威斯康星州（UW）-麦迪逊研究生院，病理学与实验室医学系和医学与公共卫生学院（SMPH）的合资企业。CMP提供严格的基础生物医学科学的教学培训，并结合主要人类疾病发病机制的跨学科和创新培训。CMP计划的目标是为博士前培训创造一个激励和强大的智力环境，嵌入动态的基础和临床转化研究氛围中，以培养将生物学知识推向临床应用所需的技能。该计划吸引了来自24个部门的50名博士和33名MD/MDPhD资助的教师培训师，这些部门横跨研究生院，兽医和医学院以及艺术和科学学院。我们正在申请竞争性更新，以培训8名博士前学生，6名非博士论文（2名MD/PhD）和2名博士论文。培训补助金将为受训人员提供不超过3年的支助。候选人将根据提名CMP培训师推荐，研究经验，个人陈述记录的研究承诺，推荐信以及增强多样性并为我们国家的健康相关研究需求做出重大贡献的潜力进行选择。我们的课程提供现代病理生物学基本概念的跨学科和综合培训，重点是生物化学，细胞和分子方法来研究人类疾病，包括与临床和转化健康相关研究相关的统计学培训。CMP还帮助学生通过委员会服务，研讨会演讲和工作坊教学来发展教学和领导技能。我们致力于向学员介绍多种职业选择，并通过提供职业发展咨询，课程和研讨会以及为每个学生制定个人发展计划（IDP）来确保他们成功过渡。对公共研究支出的更大问责和基础科学进步迅速转化为临床应用的需求，要求将医学培训更多地纳入研究生教育。CMP计划提供了基本的知识基础，研究经验，并为我们的毕业生的成功所必需的转化临床研究的理解。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Cellular and Molecular Pathology (CMP) Graduate Training Program is a joint venture of the University of Wisconsin (UW)-Madison Graduate School, the Department of Pathology & Lab Medicine and the School of Medicine and Public Health (SMPH). CMP provides rigorous didactic training in fundamental basic biomedical sciences combined with interdisciplinary and innovative training in the pathogenesis of major human diseases. The goal of the CMP program is to create a stimulating and robust intellectual environment for predoctoral training embedded in a dynamic basic and clinical translational research atmosphere in order to develop the skills needed to move biological knowledge toward clinical application. The Program draws 50 PhD and 33 MD/MDPhD funded faculty trainers from 24 departments spanning across the Graduate, Veterinary and Medical Schools and College of Arts and Sciences. We are requesting competitive renewal for training of 8 predoctoral students, 6 non-dissertators (2 MD/PhD) and 2 dissertators. Trainees will be supported by the training grant for no longer than 3 years. Candidates will be selected based on a nominating CMP trainer recommendation, research experiences, commitment to research documented by personal statement, letters of recommendation and the potential to enhance diversity and make significant contributions toward the health-related research needs of our nation. Our curriculum provides interdisciplinary and integrated training in fundamental concepts in modern pathobiology with an emphasis on biochemical, cellular and molecular approaches to the study of human disease, including training in statistics relevant to clinical and translational health-related research. CMP also helps students to develop teaching and leadership skills through committee service, seminar presentation and workshop teaching. We are committed to introducing our trainees to multiple career options and ensuring their successful transition by offering career development advising, courses and workshops and creating individual development plans (IDPs) for each student. The demand for greater accountability for public research expenditures and rapid conversion of basic science advances into clinical applications call for increased integration of medical training into graduate education. The CMP Program provides the fundamental knowledge base, research experience, and understanding of translational clinical research necessary for the success of our graduates.
