Training in computational neuroscience: Integrating experiment, theory and techn

这项提议寻求国家卫生研究院5年的支持，以建立一个校园范围的培训计划，在这个计划中， 对计算神经科学感兴趣的科学家、数学家和工程师将接受这两方面的培训 理论神经科学和实验神经科学。此外，他们还将学习如何“翻译”他们的研究想法。 从实验室到诊所。该提案包括RFA-DA-11-005中的两个必要组成部分。 第一个是R90部分，将资助六名全日制本科研究实习生给他们一个 课程作业和动手实验室研究经验相结合。R90还将支持两个 博士后学生。第二个组成部分是全职的Ruth L.Kirschstein国家研究服务 授予(NRSA)机构博士前培训计划(T90)，将资助4名博士前学生。 这项提议的目标是在计算神经科学方面创造一种独特的培训体验 对计算神经科学感兴趣的年轻科学家、数学家和工程师将接受 研究大脑的理论和实验方法。此外，他们还将学习如何 把他们的研究想法从实验室“翻译”到临床上。该计划将整合基础 知识、跨学科思维和翻译技能，以解决神经科学中的挑战 促进有相似兴趣的教职员工和学生组成一个强大的社区。

This proposal seeks 5 years of NIH support to establish a campus-wide training program in which young scientists, mathematicians, and engineers interested in computational neuroscience will be trained in both theoretical and experimental neuroscience. In addition, they will learn how to "translate" their research ideas from the laboratory to the clinic. This proposal consists ofthe two required components in RFA-DA-11-005. This first is a R90 component that will fund six full-time undergraduate research trainees give them a combination of coursework and hands-on laboratory research experience. The R90 will also fund two predoctoral students. The second component is a full-time Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) institutional predoctoral training program (T90) that will fund 4 predoctoral students. The goal of this proposal is to create a unique training experience in computational neuroscience in which young scientists, mathematicians, and engineers interested in computational neuroscience will be trained in both theoretical and experimental approaches to studying the brain. In addition, they will learn how to "translate" their research ideas from the laboratory to the clinic. The program will integrate fundamental knowledge, interdisciplinary thinking, and translational skills to solve challenges in the neurosciences, as well as promote a strong community of faculty and students with similar interests.
