Cell and Molecular Cancer Research Training in Nevada

内华达州是美国人口增长最快的州。1986年，内华达州大学获得T32资助， 里诺为新的细胞和分子生物学中的癌症研究培训提供了两笔津贴 (CMB)研究生课程。内华达州的第一个生物医学培训补助金现在每年支持四名学员， 约16%的CMB博士预科生。多萝西·哈迪格博士免疫学教授，指导 癌症研究培训项目此次竞演续约有三大变化。（一） 博士前培训包括参加NIH研究生合作伙伴计划的机会。（二） 随着NCI计划的批准，一项为期5年的分阶段计划将增加博士后癌症研究培训， 结果在25%的博士前实习生（2前，6后）的下一个竞争性更新。(3)pro_am有 成立了博士后职业发展校外咨询委员会，使内华达州成为 网站开发成功的职业发展的方法。研究生入选T32 在晋升为候选人后提供支持;他们的癌症研究培训包括细胞和分子 癌症生物学课程，癌症研究研讨会和joumal俱乐部，接触肿瘤患者， 和癌症相关的论文研究。17名学生获得了最后一个奖项的支持; 13名毕业生和 四是继续学习。发表论文38篇。12个T32教师赞助商分布在5个部门 在4个行政单位内，有29个校外竞争性赠款，平均为297 000美元 每个赞助商的年度直接成本。许多博士后实习生将与预约进入 可晋升为研究教授，并将帮助获得所需的独立资金， 发展他们的职业生涯。他们的培训包括以社区为基础的癌症研究培训，如 参加肿瘤委员会的报告和肿瘤学杂志俱乐部与居民在内部 医学;与工作相关的技能培训，如人事管理;以及私人职业咨询。

Nevada is the fastest-growing state in the nation. In 1986, a T32 grant to the University of Nevada, Reno provided two stipends for cancer research training within the new Cell and Molecular Biology (CMB) Graduate Program. Nevada's first biomedical training grant now supports four trainees per year, about 16% of the CMB predoctoral students. Dorothy Hudig, Ph.D., Professor of Immunology, directs the cancer research training program. There are 3 major changes in this competitive renewal. (1) Predoctoral training includes opportunities to participate in the NIH Graduate Partners Program. (2) With NCI program approval, a 5 year phase-in plan will add postdoctoral cancer research training and result in 25% predoctoral trainees (2 pre, 6 post) by the next competitive renewal. (3) The pro_am has established an extramural Advisory Committee for Postdoctoral Career Development, to make Nevada a siteto develop approaches for successful career advancement. Graduate students are selected for T32 support after advancement to candidacy; their cancer research training includes a Cell and Molecular Biology of Cancer Course, cancer research seminars and joumal clubs, exposure to oncology patients, and cancer-related thesis research. Seventeen students were supported by the last award; 13 graduates and 4 continuing students. They published 38 papers. The twelve T32 faculty sponsors are in 5 departments within 4 administrative units and have 29 extramural competitive grants, with an average of $297,000 annual direct costs per sponsor. Many of the postdoctoral trainees will enter with appointments promotable to research professors and will be helped to obtain the independent funding needed to develop their careers. Their training includes community-based cancer research training, such as attendance of tumor board presentations and an oncologyjournal club with the residents in internal medicine; training in job-related skills such as personnel management; and private career counseling.
