TRAINING GRANT IN GENETICS

拟议中的培训计划是努力在哈佛医学院提供实验室遗传学博士后培训的核心。它提供了一个机会，为医生和科学家提供各种学科的培训，使他们能够利用哈佛医学院提供的非凡丰富的环境。它还有助于促进调查人员之间的互动，并提供了一个论坛，增加教师与学员在教学会议接触。该方案的培训单位包括HMS遗传学系、儿童医院实验室、马萨诸塞州总医院、布里格姆妇女医院、达纳法伯癌症研究所和贝斯以色列女执事医疗中心。虽然培训的重点是研究，该计划是完全整合与哈佛医学院临床遗传学培训计划。该计划是由医学遗传学的所有培训领域（博士遗传学，细胞遗传学，生化遗传学和分子遗传学）的美国委员会认可，以及由研究生医学教育（MD临床遗传学）的美国理事会。这为学员提供了一个机会，使他们除了接受实验室培训外，还能成为临床遗传学学科的合格委员会成员。研究金培训将提供二至三年。要求为10名4级或以上的博士后培训生提供支助。

The proposed training program is the centerpiece in efforts to provide postdoctoral training in laboratory genetics at Harvard Medical School. It has provided an opportunity to offer training to physicians and scientists in a wide variety of disciplines, enabling them to take advantage of the extraordinary rich environment offered at Harvard Medical School. It has also helped foster interactions between investigators, and provided a forum for increasing faculty contact with trainees in didactic sessions. The training units of the program include the HMS Department of Genetics, laboratories at Children's Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Although the focus of the training is on research the program is fully integrated with the Harvard Medical School Clinical Genetics Training Program. This program is accredited by the American Board of Medical Genetics in all areas of training (PhD Genetics, Cytogenetics, Biochemical Genetics, and Molecular Genetics) as well as by the American Council of Graduate Medical Education (MD Clinical Genetics). This provides an opportunity for trainees to become board eligible in a discipline of clinical genetics in addition to receive laboratory training. Fellowship training will be provided for two to three years. Support for ten postdoctoral trainees at level 4 or greater is requested.
