Training in Cancer Immunopathobiology

描述(由申请人提供)：宾夕法尼亚大学拟议的培训将提供博士后研究员(M.D.；M.D.，Ph.D.；Ph.D.；D.V.M.；或D.V.M.，Ph.D.)实验室和教学集中在分子、细胞和整个动物的细胞生长和转化方面，这些方面与理解癌症的起源和治疗有关。 该项目将集中培训S和S或博士S，他们希望在一个有医学院和兽医学院资深导师参与的病理学项目中接受培训。该项目为宾夕法尼亚大学的资深科学家提供有针对性的定期接触。一个致力于转基因和基因敲除小鼠的组织病理学的新项目将由病理学部门的成员提供，这些小鼠容易发生肿瘤。我们还在开发另一门适时的课程，“从基因到细胞：基因组学、蛋白质组学和细胞学的综合方法。”该课程将包括讲座和实践经验。这是一个独特的项目，它将教学与最新的转型起源研究联系起来。 Mark Greene博士，M.D.，Ph.D.，Peter Felsburg，V.M.D.，Ph.D.，Peter Nowell，M.D.和Phillip Scott博士将担任培训计划的高级导师。通过正式纳入两所学校的资深导师，我们相信我们可以为研究员提供独特的指导和观点。 将关注科学的伦理问题，并将重点努力增加少数群体在该计划中的代表性。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed training at the University of Pennsylvania will offer postdoctoral fellows (M.D.; M.D., Ph.D.; Ph.D.; D.V.M.; or D.V.M., Ph.D.) laboratory and didactic concentration on molecular, cellular, and whole animal aspects of cell growth and transformation that are relevant to the understanding of the origins and treatment of cancer. The program will concentrate our training efforts to deal with D.V.M.'s and M.D.'s or Ph.D.'s who wish to train in a Pathology based program that involves senior mentors from the School of Medicine and the School of Veterinary Medicine. The program offers focused and regular exposure to senior scientists at Penn. A novel program dedicated to histopathology of transgenic and knockout mice which have predisposition to developing tumors will be offered by members of the Pathology Departments. We are also developing another timely course, "From Gene to Cell: An integrated approach to genomics, proteomics and cytomics." The course will include lectures and hands-on experience. This is a unique program that links didactic teaching to the most current studies of the origins of transformation. Drs. Mark Greene, M.D., Ph.D., Peter Felsburg, V.M.D., Ph.D., Peter Nowell, M.D., and Phillip Scott, Ph.D., will act as senior mentors in the training program. By formally including senior mentors from both schools we believe that we can provide unique guidance and perspectives to the fellows. Attention will be paid to ethical issues of science, and there will be a focused effort to increase the minority representation in the program.
