Enrichment Program

项目概要：浓缩浓缩液 强化计划的总体目标是通过促进C-SiG环境 通过成员之间的交流，促进教育和研究协同作用。为此我们 追求五个互补的具体目标：i）支持电子通信基础设施 包括内部和外部C-SiG网站和每周C-SiG公告的电子邮件通讯， （二）每月举办一次中心范围的系列研讨会，每周举办一次研讨会， 机制主题（即细胞内信号传导、细胞间通讯、遗传学和表观遗传学），以及 定期举办期刊俱乐部; ㈢组织年度科学小型专题讨论会和年度专题讲习班 四）促进校外合作和技术转让，利用 其他机构的专业知识，包括其他NIDDK资助的DDRCC，通过一个小型研讨会计划;以及 五）通过支持年度研究职业发展务虚会和 制定早期职业发展和研究培训计划。此外该 丰富计划将继续为中西部计划和组织每六年一次的年度会议 DDRCC联盟（马约、凯斯西大学、芝加哥大学、密歇根大学、 辛辛那提和华盛顿大学）。

PROJECT SUMMARY: ENRICHMENT PROGRAM The overall objective of the Enrichment Program is to enhance the C-SiG environment by promoting education and fostering research synergy through communication amongst its members. To do this, we pursue five complementary SPECIFIC AIMS to: i) Support an infrastructure of electronic communication including internal and external C-SiG Web sites and a weekly email newsletter of C-SiG announcements and relevant seminars; ii) Conduct a monthly Center-wide seminar series, weekly seminars focused on our mechanistic themes (i.e. intracellular signaling, cell-to-cell communication, genetics and epigenetics), and regular journal clubs; iii) Organize an annual scientific minisymposium and an annual workshop topical to the center mechanistic themes; iv) Facilitate extramural collaboration and technology transfer by leveraging expertise at other institutions, including other NIDDK-funded DDRCCs via a Minisabbatical Program; and v) Nurture junior investigators by supporting an annual research career development retreat and the development of an Early Career Development and Research Training Program. In addition, the Enrichment Program will continue to plan and organize one annual conference every six years for the Midwest DDRCC Alliance (Mayo, Case Western University, University of Chicago, University of Michigan, University of Cincinnati, and Washington University).
