DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is for a new, integrated neuroscience training program at New York University. Historically, there have been two neuroscience graduate program at NYU located at the Washington Square and School of Medicine campuses. However, there has been an effort over the past two years to seamlessly integrate the graduate programs and thereby offer training with far greater breadth and depth than each offers individually. Moreover, it has formed a highly complementary research effort given the emphasis of systems, cognitive, and computational neuroscience at Washington Square and cellular, molecular, developmental, translational, and clinical neuroscience at the medical school. The proposed training program strives to continue the integration of the extensive neuroscience community at NYU and provide the next step towards full collaboration and cooperative between the two sister campuses. The specific goals of the neuroscience training program are: (1) To provide a rigorous and broad-based graduate education in neuroscience within an interactive and collegial research environment. (2) To increase the number of high caliber students that apply to and participate in the program, including active recruitment of underrepresented minorities. (3) To provide students with guidance by a rigorous mentoring system through a series of milestones to a doctoral degree typically in 5-6 years. (4) To build critical awareness by open discussion of problems associated with the scientific method and the interpretation of results as well as discussion of the ethical problems associated with scientific research. (5) To provide a broad perspective on how training in neuroscience can allow students to make contributions in basic, translational, and clinical research. This includes access to detailed information concerning post-graduate career choices. The program brings together 69 faculty members with diverse research interests to ensure broad training graduate students in fundamental principles of neuroscience and their application to basic and clinical research problems. Cohesiveness in the program is achieved through a comprehensive core course curriculum required for our students, as well as seminars, symposia, journal clubs, tutorials, retreats, and extensive laboratory training. Each student will be carefully mentored throughout their training tenure to ensure that

描述（由申请人提供）：此申请是针对纽约大学的新的，综合的神经科学培训计划。从历史上看，纽约大学和医学院校园的纽约大学有两个神经科学研究生课程。但是，在过去的两年中，一直在努力将研究生课程无缝整合，从而提供比每个人分别提供的广度和深度培训。此外，鉴于华盛顿广场的系统，认知和计算神经科学的重点以及医学院的蜂窝，分子，发展，转化和临床神经科学的重点，它已经形成了高度互补的研究工作。拟议的培训计划致力于继续在纽约大学整合广泛的神经科学社区，并为两个姊妹校园之间的完全合作和合作提供下一步。神经科学培训计划的具体目标是：（1）在互动和大学研究环境中提供严格且广泛的神经科学研究生教育。 （2）增加申请和参加该计划的高素质学生的数量，包括积极招募代表性不足的少数民族。 （3）通常在5 - 6年内通过一系列的博士学位为学生提供严格的指导系统的指导。 （4）通过公开讨论与科学方法相关的问题以及对结果的解释以及对与科学研究相关的伦理问题的讨论来建立批判意识。 （5）提供有关神经科学培训如何使学生在基本，转化和临床研究中做出贡献的广泛观点。这包括访问有关研究生职业选择的详细信息。该计划汇集了69名具有多种研究兴趣的教职员工，以确保广泛的培训研究生神经科学的基本原则及其在基本和临床研究问题中的应用。该计划的凝聚力是通过我们的学生所需的全面核心课程以及研讨会，研讨会，期刊俱乐部，教程，务虚会和广泛的实验室培训来实现的。每个学生将在整个培训任期内仔细指导，以确保
