DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases is complex. Yet the number of investigators trained to deal with whole organism diseases is decreasing. Accordingly, we propose to train scientists capable of implementing integrated approaches combining "cellular", "whole animal" and "human" systems. This is only possible through multidisciplinary collaborations that should begin during predoctoral training. We have therefore developed an interdisciplinary program for predoctoral training in Integrative Vascular Biology (IVB) at the University of North Carolina with the stated goal of stimulating students to collaborate. To encourage this multi-disciplinary approach, we require students to have two complementing advisors. Four trainees a year will be selected from graduate students already enrolled in departmental programs and curricula at UNC. To increase the students' freedom in choosing advisors, and to unite them as an IVB group, we will support them for up to three years. The IVB Program is administered by the campus-wide Program for Molecular Biology and Biotechnology. Dr. Nobuyo Maeda, Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, is Director. The thesis advisors are faculty members (from 12 Departments in three Schools and one College at UNC), with a strong commitment to predoctoral training through vascular biology related research at the molecular, cellular, and whole organism levels ranging from animal models to human patients. The complementing training faculty includes clinical faculty and individuals at UNC and nearby Institutions in the Research Triangle area who maintain active laboratories mainly with postdoctoral students. Extensive collaborations among our faculty already exist and the mechanism of multidisciplinary pre-doctoral training in integrated vascular biology is already in place and functional. The requested funding will allow us to formalize and expand our IVB Program and implement the concept of group-mentoring by ensuring that trainees carry out their research in more than one laboratory. With its outstanding history in vascular biology research, its strong group of investigators, and its strength in animal model studies, the IVB Program offers an outstanding environment for multidisciplinary training of predoctoral students.

描述（由申请人提供）： 心血管疾病的发病机制十分复杂。 然而数量 接受过处理全身疾病培训的调查人员正在减少。 因此，我们建议培养能够实施综合的科学家 结合“细胞”、“整个动物”和“人类”系统的方法。 这是 只有通过应该开始的多学科合作才有可能 博士前培训期间。 因此我们开发了一个跨学科的 综合血管生物学（IVB）博士前培训计划 北卡罗来纳大学的既定目标是激励学生 合作。 为了鼓励这种多学科方法，我们需要 学生有两名补充顾问。 每年将有四名实习生 从已经就读院系课程的研究生中选出， 北卡罗来纳大学的课程。 增加学生选择导师的自由，以及 为了将他们团结成一个 IVB 团体，我们将为他们提供长达三年的支持。 IVB 计划由全校分子计划管理 生物学和生物技术。 Nobuyo Maeda 博士，病理学教授 检验医学科，主任。 论文指导老师均为教师 （来自北卡罗来纳大学三所学院和一所学院的 12 个系），拥有强大的 致力于通过血管生物学相关研究进行博士前培训 在分子、细胞和整个有机体水平（从动物到动物） 人类患者的模型。 补充培训师资包括 北卡罗来纳大学及附近机构的临床教职人员和个人 研究三角地区主要维持活跃的实验室 博士后学生。 我们的教师之间已经进行了广泛的合作 多学科综合博士前培养的存在及机制 血管生物学已经就位并发挥作用。 所请求的资金将 让我们能够正式确定并扩展我们的 IVB 计划并实施以下概念： 小组辅导，确保受训者在多个领域开展研究 实验室。 凭借其在血管生物学研究方面的杰出历史， 强大的研究人员团队以及在动物模型研究方面的实力， IVB 项目为多学科培训提供了卓越的环境 的博士前学生。
