Training Program in Marine Biotechnology

描述(由申请人提供)：本申请旨在建立海洋生物技术和生物医学研究领域的研究生培训计划(仅限博士前)。新计划将以加州大学圣地亚哥分校斯克里普斯海洋研究所(SIO)海洋生物技术和生物医学中心(CMBB)为中心，涉及加州大学圣地亚哥分校许多系和研究生项目的参与。海洋生物技术培训计划(TPMB)是为对海洋生物医学、海洋生物材料研究、生物修复、海洋微生物学和分子生物学、海洋基因组学和海洋生物作为进化、新陈代谢和生理学模型的广泛学科的职业感兴趣的学生提供的一个主要培训机会。该项目是由一个由23名教员组成的雄心勃勃的团队提出的，他们将合作创建一个史无前例的项目，将新的海洋和生物医学技术联系起来。 海洋生物技术和生物医学学科是SIO内部认购最多的研究生研究领域之一。创建一个单独的培训计划的机会将为我们的教学工作提供稳定性，并带来一个在其他地方找不到的全新的教育机会。我们强调将海洋生物技术与生物医学科学的最新进展相结合，这在相关中心是不存在的。我们在加州大学圣迭戈分校工程学院、海洋科学学院和医学院的卓越研究能力为我们提供了轻松超越传统部门界限的培训机会。最后，拉霍亚地区已发展成为世界上最令人印象深刻的工业生物技术社区之一。这些资源加在一起，将创造一种在其他地方难以实现的多学科培训体验。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks to establish a graduate training program (predoctoral only) in the field of marine biotechnology and biomedical research. The new program would be centered within the Center for Marine Biotechnology and Biomedicine (CMBB) at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), University of California, San Diego, and would involve participation from numerous departments and graduate programs at UCSD. The Traininq Program in Marine Biotechnology, TPMB, is proposed as a major training opportunity for students interested in careers in the broad disciplines of marine biomedicinals, marine biomaterials research, bioremediation, marine microbiology and molecular biology, marine genomics, and marine life as models of evolution, metabolism and physiology. The program is proposed by an ambitious group of 23 faculty who will collaborate to create an unprecedented program that links new marine and biomedical technologies. The marine biotechnology and biomedicine discipline is one of the most highly subscribed graduate research areas within SIO. The opportunity to create a separate Training Program will provide stability in our teaching efforts and result in an entirely new educational opportunity not found elsewhere. Our emphasis on combining marine biotechnologies with recent advances in biomedical science is not available in related centers. Our excellent research capabilities at UCSD in the Schools of Engineering, Marine Science and Medicine provide training opportunities that easily transcend traditional departmental boundaries. Lastly, the La Jolla area has grown to become one of the world's most impressive industrial biotechnology communities. Together, these resources will create a multidisciplinary training experience difficult to achieve elsewhere.
