Abstract We propose a new interdisciplinary skin biology training program at the University of California, Irvine. The Program builds on a strong group of skin biology mentors affiliated with a NIAMS-funded Skin Biology and Disease Research Core Center (UCI Skin). The goal is to develop skin biologists that will be highly skilled in integrating bioengineering, including imaging, and computation into their research to make discoveries in skin biology. The four trainees will be a mixture of graduate students (three slots), including MD-PhD students, and postdoctoral fellows (one slot), including dermatology residents pursuing postgraduate research training. The mentors include several investigators whose work focuses on skin biology and collaborating investigators from other scientific disciplines. Each trainee–irrespective of whether the primary mentor is a skin biologist or from an allied field–will pursue an interdisciplinary project at the intersection of skin biology and one of two cross-disciplines: systems biology or bioengineering/imaging. In their research activities, the trainees will be guided through dual mentoring by a skin biologist and a mentor from a complementary field. In addition to laboratory-based research training, the program includes lectures in skin biology and skin diseases, a weekly Skin Club for data presentations, seminar series, retreats and a yearly symposium. The program also offers a menu of career development activities that can be individually tailored to each trainee based on their interests and career goals.

抽象的 我们建议在加利福尼亚大学一项新的跨学科皮肤生物学培训计划 尔湾。该计划以强大的皮肤生物学指导者为基础，并由Niams资助 皮肤生物学和疾病研究核心中心（UCI皮肤）。目标是发展皮肤生物学家 这将非常熟练地整合生物工程，包括成像和计算 研究以在皮肤生物学方面发现。这四名学员将是毕业生的混合 学生（三个插槽），包括MD-PHD学生和博士后研究员（一个插槽），包括 皮肤病学居民接受研究生研究培训。导师包括几个 研究人员的工作重点是皮肤生物学和其他科学的调查人员 学科。每个学员 - 对主要精神是皮肤生物学家还是来自 盟军领域 - 将在皮肤生物学交集和两种中的一个跨学科项目中追求一个跨学科项目 跨学科：系统生物学或生物工程/成像。在他们的研究活动中 学员将通过皮肤生物学家的双重指导和来自 完全字段。除了基于实验室的研究培训外，该计划还包括讲座 在皮肤生物学和皮肤疾病中 和年度研讨会。该计划还提供了职业发展活动菜单 根据每个学员的兴趣和职业目标对每个学员进行量身定制。
