Comprehensive training in Neuroimaging Fundamentals and Applications

^_ 我们寻求NIH的赞助，以支持一个新的和创新的计划，在基础和 神经影像学的应用。它是基于这样一种信念，即未来的神经科学家可能需要 掌握神经影像学方法和原则，在他们的工作，以解决日益增长的神经负担 疾病，并进行研究，这将最好地促进我们对人类行为的理解， 认知这个应用程序包括T-90和R-90组件为我们的p/e博士生。加州大学洛杉矶分校 ommassive神经成像培训计划（NITP）旨在培养博士前的学生在原则， 神经成像是基本的-常见的大多数或所有的神经成像-在认识到快速 这些变化已经发生，并将继续在成像技术。他们将接触到一种不同寻常的 从细胞到全脑，从结构到动态和包容性的完整成像方法 先进的多模态成像技术我们的学生将成为神经科学的全面参与者 跨部门计划在加州大学洛杉矶分校，但将受益于额外的专业课程的工作和经验。 NITP将对神经科学领域的现有项目进行补充和参与， 计算生物学在加州大学洛杉矶分校已经很成熟了。学生们将从大量的和 体验神经影像学教师和课程新开发的这个程序。 响应短期课程的机会，NITP将赞助每年一次的为期一周的奖学金， 功能性神经成像和外展计划，在这里，教师和学员将向当地人提供内容， 学校我们还将举行年度研讨会，主要针对外行观众，旨在教育 向公众介绍神经成像的结果和重要局限性。每个短期课程将 服务于NITP学生的重要教育目标，他们将担任促进者和教师。

^_ We seek sponsorship from the NIH to support a new and innovative program in the fundamentals and applications of neuroimaging. It is premised on the belief that neuroscientists of tomorrow are likely to require mastery of neuroimaging methods and principles in their work to address the growing burden of neurological disease and to perform the studies that will best advance our understanding of human behavior and cognition this applications includes both T-90 and R-90 components for our p/e-doctoral students. The UCLA omprehensive Neuroimaging Training Program (NITP) seeks to train pre-doctoral students in principles of neuroimaging that are fundamental - common to most or all neuroimaging - in recognition of the rapid changes that have occurred and will continue in imaging technology. They will be exposed to an unusually complete range of imaging approaches from cellular to whole brain, from structural to dynamic and inclusive of advanced muli-modality imaging. Our students will be full participants in the neurosciences nterdepartmental program at UCLA, but will benefit from additional specialized course work and experience. The NITP will be both complementary to, and participatory In, existing programs in neurosciences and computational biology already well-established at UCLA. The students will benefit from the large and experience neuroimaging faculty and from courses newly-developed for this program. Responsive to the Short Course opportunities the NITP will sponsor an annual one-week fellowship in functional neuroimaging and an outreach program wjhere the faculty andtrainees will deliver content to local schools. We also will hold an annual seminar, directed principally to the lay audience, intended to educate the public on the results and important limitations of{neuroimaging. Each of these short course programs will serve important educational objectives for the NITP students, who will serve as facilitators and instructors.
