DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary: The training program in Integrative Neuroscience in Health and Disease is designed to provide broad-based training for both pre- and postdoctoral fellows. Our goals are to 1) train neuroscientists who have a broad understanding and acquaintance with the sub-fields of neuroscience and 2) provide financial support to collaborative research projects that join laboratories with differing intellectual and/or experimental expertise. The program builds upon a 5 year joint program between the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey and Rutgers University in Newark. Trainees, therefore, will have access to the facilities of both schools, which lie within 5 blocks of one another, and the basic science and clinical seminars and courses which they offer. The training faculty has expertise in all aspects of neuroscience, biology, and neurology. The breadth of the research ongoing in the two institutions will ensure exposure to multiple experimental approaches and multiple mentors. Additionally, there are intentional opportunities throughout the program for researchers in different sub-fields to interact. Although the faculty is experienced in successful mentoring, the program will have advisors for both pre- and post-doctorates, as well as student and postdoctoral representatives to ensure a high quality of supervision, a fulfilling training experience, and successful career advancement. Postdoctoral training will be enhanced by the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs. We are requesting support for 2 pre-doctoral fellows each year and 2 postdoctoral fellows in year 1 and 3 in each year thereafter. Each trainee will be supported for 2 years during which time they will be assisted in applying for fellowships or other grant support. Attendance and presentation at research meetings, participation in teaching activities, submission of publications and support of peers and colleagues will be strongly and actively encouraged. Relevance: This grant will train neuroscientists who will work on the entire breadth of neurological disease including degenerations, drug addiction, obesity, epilepsy, pain and language and learning disorders. It promotes interaction among all the fields of neuroscience from behavior to molecular neurobiology to stimulate innovative and therapeutic breakthroughs.

描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要：健康和疾病综合神经科学的培训计划旨在为前和博士后研究员提供基于广泛的培训。我们的目标是1）培训神经科学家对神经科学的子场有广泛了解和熟悉的神经科学家，2）为与具有不同知识分子和/或实验专业知识的实验室的协作研究项目提供财务支持。该计划建立在纽瓦克的新泽西大学和新泽西州牙科大学和罗格斯大学之间的5年联合计划。因此，学员将可以进入两所学校的设施，这些设施彼此5街区，以及他们提供的基础科学和临床研讨会和课程。培训教师在神经科学，生物学和神经病学的各个方面都有专业知识。这两个机构正在进行的研究的广度将确保接触多种实验方法和多个导师。此外，整个计划中都有故意的机会，可以让不同子场的研究人员进行互动。尽管该教职员工在成功指导方面经验丰富，但该计划将为前后的顾问以及学生和博士后代表提供顾问，以确保高质量的监督，充实的培训经验以及成功的职业发展。博士后事务办公室将增强博士后培训。我们要求每年为2个博士后研究员提供支持，此后每年为1年和3年的两个博士后研究员提供支持。每个学员将得到2年的支持，在此期间，他们将得到协助申请奖学金或其他赠款支持。参加研究会议，参与教学活动，出版物的出版物以及对同龄人和同事的支持将受到强烈而积极的鼓励。相关性：该赠款将培训神经科学家将致力于神经系统疾病的整个广度，包括退化，吸毒成瘾，肥胖，癫痫，疼痛和语言以及学习障碍。它促进了从行为到分子神经生物学的所有神经科学领域之间的相互作用，以刺激创新性和治疗性突破。
