Neurobiology Summer Course

描述（由申请人提供）：马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔海洋生物实验室夏季神经生物学课程的目标是为有前途的学生提供分子和细胞神经生物学的强化训练。这是一门综合性的、以实验室为导向的课程，由来自世界各地的顶尖科学家教授。该课程每年开设一次，为期8周，从6月初持续到7月底。本课程的一个特点是有机会与国际公认的神经生物学专家使用最先进的技术并肩工作。本课程的既定目标是使学生能够使用最先进和适当的技术进行科学探究。神经生物学课程在过去的25年里，每年夏天都举行一次，不间断地得到了NIH的资助。最近更新的课程课程确保它在功能基因组学、电生理学、先进光学和电子显微镜、光遗传学和现代神经细胞生物学等领域传达尖端技术和实验室实践。公平地说，多年来，许多基础和临床神经生物学的领军人物都以学生或教师的身份参加了这门课程。该课程目前配备继续培训和激励学生成为我们未来的科学创新者和领导者。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the Summer Neurobiology Course at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA is to provide promising students with intensive training in Molecular and Cellular Neurobiology. It is a comprehensive, laboratory oriented course taught by leading scientists from around the globe. The course, offered annually, runs for eight weeks, from the beginning of June to end of July. A hallmark of this course is the opportunity to work side-by-side with internationally recognized experts in neurobiology using state-of-the-art technologies. A stated goal of the course is to empower students to approach scientific inquiry using the most advanced and appropriate technologies available. The Neurobiology Course has been held every summer for 37 years, with uninterrupted NIH funding for the past 25 years. Recent updates to the course curriculum ensure that it is conveying cutting- edge technologies and lab practices in fields that include functional genomics, electrophysiology, advanced light and electron microscopy, optogenetics, and modern neuronal cell biology. It is fair to say that over the years, many leading figures in basic and clinical neurobiology have participated in this course as either students or faculty. The course is currently equipped to continue training and inspiring current students to become our future scientific innovators and leaders.
