Training Program in Developmental and Stem Cell Biology

描述(由申请人提供)：发育和干细胞生物学培训计划(DSCB)的目的是为作为活跃科学家参与发展生物学、干细胞生物学和发育遗传学学科的博士生做准备。为了实现这一目标，培训计划提供了关于发育、遗传学、细胞生物学和分子生物学的核心原理的教育。特别重要的是准备好批判性和创造性的思想。除了说教训练之外， 该计划提供并鼓励参加一些研讨会、期刊俱乐部和学术讨论会，以促进对文献的讨论、观点和批判性评论。广泛的实验室培训为每个学生提供了他或她所选专业的特殊专业知识。最后，互动环境和与临床部门的合作促进了发现过程向改善人类状况的治疗转移。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of the Developmental and Stem Cell Biology Training Program (DSCB) is to prepare PhD candidates for participation as active scientists in disciplines having an emphasis on developmental biology, stem cell biology and developmental genetics. To accomplish this goal, the training program provides education in core principles of development, genetics, cell biology and molecular biology. Of special importance is the preparation of critical and creative minds. In addition to didactic training, the Program provides and encourages participation in a number of seminars, journal clubs and colloquia that foster discussion, perspective and critical review of the literature. Extensive laboratory training provides each student with a special expertise in his or her chosen specialty. Finally, an interactive environment and collaborations with clinical departments fosters the movement of the discovery process to treatments that will improve the human condition.
