PROJECT SUMMARY This is a new application for a T32 to support predoctoral training in Biochemistry, Cell and Developmental Biology (BCDB) at Emory University. The award will replace the current T32 training program, which is in its 29th year, and has successfully trained a diverse cohort of students for the biomedical research workforce. We are requesting 7 positions and anticipate the duration of appointment will be 12-24 months. The mission of the BCDB training program is to provide an outstanding training environment through evidenced-based learning approaches and top caliber research mentors for development of our Ph.D. level workforce in academic-, industry- and government-based research careers as well as other biomedical research-related careers. This mission will be accomplished through a core curriculum that includes discussion-based, active learning approaches to the fundamental principles of biological processes at the biochemical and cellular level and development of oral and written presentation skills through classroom and seminar experiences. In addition, the importance of rigor and reproducibility in biomedical research is emphasized throughout the training with a required course as well as emphasizing this training as part of the courses, seminars and journal clubs. The objectives of the training program are to use these approaches to provide Ph.D. scientists with the necessary skills in critical thinking, experimental design and quantitative approaches as they acquire an understanding of how to conduct their work in a manner that is responsible, rigorous and reproducible. The program has an inclusive environment and is active in the recruitment and retention of students from diverse backgrounds. There is also an established focus on training the faculty mentors to provide the most outstanding training environment possible. The program also provides unique training opportunities to students supported by the proposed T32 training program through their responsibilities in running an innovative journal club as well as their role in organizing the two annual BCDB symposia; one which highlights career opportunities for Ph.D. graduates. We plan to continue our track record of training success while also introducing new and innovative aspects to the training together with mechanisms to evaluate both student and program outcomes.

项目摘要 这是T32支持生物化学，细胞和发育性培训前培训的新应用 埃默里大学的生物学（BCDB）。该奖项将取代当前的T32培训计划，该计划在其第29届 一年，并成功地为生物医学研究人员培训了各种各样的学生。我们是 要求7个职位并预期任命持续时间为12-24个月。 BCDB的任务 培训计划是通过基于经验的学习提供出色的培训环境 用于开发我们博士学位的方法和顶尖的研究导师学术水平员工 行业和政府的研究职业以及其他与生物医学研究有关的职业。这 任务将通过包括基于讨论的，积极学习的核心课程来完成 在生化和细胞水平上的生物过程基本原理的方法 通过课堂和研讨会经验发展口头和书面演讲技巧。另外， 在整个培训中都强调了严格和可重复性在生物医学研究中的重要性 需要课程，并强调这项培训是课程，研讨会和期刊俱乐部的一部分。这 培训计划的目标是使用这些方法提供博士学位。有必要的科学家 批判性思维，实验设计和定量方法的技能，他们对 如何以负责，严格和可重复的方式进行工作。该程序有一个 包容性环境，并积极参与来自不同背景的学生的招聘和保留。那里 也是对培训教师导师提供最出色培训环境的既定重点 可能的。该计划还为拟议的T32支持的学生提供了独特的培训机会 通过他们在经营创新期刊俱乐部的责任以及他们在 组织两年的BCDB研讨会；一个强调博士学位的职业机会毕业生。我们 计划继续我们的培训成功记录，同时还将新的和创新的方面引入 培训以及评估学生和计划成果的机制。
