MSM/WCI Partnership To Investigate Mechanisms of Prostate Cancer: Implementation

第四节.初步规划阶段 钟博士和戴维森博士已经确定了一个共同感兴趣和高度重要的领域： 前列腺癌的昼夜生物学。此外，我们选出了一个由6人组成的内部咨询委员会。 杰出的癌症教员，每个合作机构3人，帮助选择第二个和任何未来的合作机构 将通过这笔赠款资助的试点项目。因此，规划阶段实际上已经完成。为 出于这个原因，我们只要求3年的支持，这一部分对于我们的应用程序来说是不必要的。这个 仅建议在MSM和WCI举办一系列讲座的计划活动，旨在 帮助促进本申请中已提出的协作以外的协作。我们将举办4场讲座，其中2场在MSM 在那里，参与癌症研究的埃默里学院的教职员工将被邀请演讲他们的研究并与 实习生。AUC的教职员工和学生将被邀请参加讲座。另外两个将由MSM提交 埃默里大学的癌症教员。我们还将在MSM每年举办一次关于昼夜节律生物学主题的重要讲座 癌症的威胁。演讲者将是一位国际公认的癌症科学家或内科医生。

Section 4. Initial Planning Stage Drs. Chung and Davidson have already identified an area of common interest and of high importance: the circadian biology of prostate cancer. Further, we have selected an Internal Advisory Committee made up of 6 distinguished cancer faculty, 3 from each partner institution to help select the 2nd and any future collaborative pilot projects that are to be funded via this grant. Consequently, the Planning Stage is virtually complete. For this reason we are only requesting 3 years of support, making this section unnecessary for our application. The only planning activities proposed are a series of lectures occurring both at MSM and WCI that are intended to help foster collaborations beyond those already proposed in this application. We will hold 4 lectures, 2 at MSM where Emory faculty involved in cancer research will be invited to speak about their research and meet with trainees. AUC faculty and students will be invited to the lectures. The other two will be presented by MSM cancer faculty at Emory. We will also host one major lecture per year at MSM on the topic of circadian biology of cancer. The speaker will be an internationally recognized cancer scientist or physician.
