Cancer Biology Training Program

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一个新的申请癌症生物学培训计划在印第安纳州大学医学院，位于印第安纳州普渡大学印第安纳波利斯校区。该计划的目标是培养博士后和博士前学员，他们经历了致力于癌症研究的互动基础科学家和临床医生的跨学科环境。该计划的优势包括导师和环境的质量以及癌症研究的多样性。这27位导师是印第安纳州大学癌症中心和印第安纳州大学研究生院的成员。他们在生物化学和分子生物学，细胞和综合生理学，医学和分子遗传学，微生物学和免疫学，药理学和毒理学部门有主要或次要的任命。有些人还在内科、妇产科、儿科、外科或泌尿科有主要预约。导师是高度互动的，在研究和教学领域的合作。需要为6名博士后和2名博士前受训人员提供支助。除了他们的研究，博士后和博士前学员将参加两个每周癌症研讨会系列：一个基础科学系列和大回合。为期一年，学员将参加并介绍他们的研究在细胞生长计划的调节和印第安纳州大学癌症中心的实验治疗计划的每月会议。此外，学员将在印第安纳州大学癌症中心年度癌症研究日上展示他们的研究。所有受训人员都将参加科学道德课程。博士后培训生将获得博士学位。招募到参加临床奖学金计划的各个实验室或医学博士。教学课程的要求将针对博士后研究员的特定背景。博士前学员将满足其个别部门的要求，并完成癌症生物学未成年人或同等课程。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a new application for a Cancer Biology Training Program at Indiana University School of Medicine which is located on the Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis campus. The goal of the Program is to produce postdoctoral and predoctoral trainees who have experienced an interdisciplinary environment of interacting basic scientists and clinicians committed to cancer research. Strengths of the Program include the quality of the preceptors and environment and the diversity of cancer research. The twenty-seven preceptors are members of the Indiana University Cancer Center and the Indiana University Graduate School. They have primary or secondary appointments in the Departments of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Cellular and Integrative Physiology, Medical and Molecular Genetics, Microbiology and Immunology, and Pharmacology and Toxicology. Several also have primary appointments in Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Pediatrics, Surgery, or Urology. The preceptors are highly interactive, collaborating in both the research and teaching arenas. Support is requested for 6 postdoctoral and 2 predoctoral trainees. In addition to their research, postdoctoral and predoctoral trainees will participate in two weekly cancer seminar series: a basic science series and Grand Rounds. For one year each, the trainees will attend and present their research in a monthly meeting of the Regulation of Cell Growth Program and the Experimental Therapeutics Program of the Indiana University Cancer Center. Also, the trainees will present their research at the Indiana University Cancer Center Annual Cancer Research Day. All trainees will take a course in scientific ethics. Postdoctoral trainees will be Ph.D.s. recruited into individual laboratories or M.D.s participating in the clinical fellowship programs. Requirement of didactic coursework will be tailored to the particular background of the postdoctoral fellow. Predoctoral trainees will fulfill the requirements of their individual departments and complete a Cancer Biology Minor or equivalent coursework.
