DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This project will support the training of six predoctoral students each year in the area of biostatistics, with an emphasis on applications to modern problems in genomic science. The training combines rigorous coursework in statistical methods and theory, additional courses in bioinformatics and genomic science, and an extensive laboratory training experience. For the latter, trainees will begin as supervised statistical consultants for a matched genomics lab, then over the course of a year progress into active collaborators in one or more lab projects. Most students will be supported for the first three years of their graduate programs. The scientific training will be supplemented with training in the responsible conduct of research developed specifically to meet the needs of researchers in this area. The training involves collaboration among biostatistics, genomics, and philosophy faculty members. An active recruiting plan is described for enhancing the diversity of our training and graduate programs, including a summer program bringing faculty and undergraduate students from minority serving institutions to NC State during the summer to initiate collaborative work with training faculty.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目将支持每年在生物统计学领域对六名学生的培训，并着重于对基因组科学现代问题的应用。该培训结合了统计方法和理论的严格课程，生物信息学和基因组科学方面的其他课程以及广泛的实验室培训经验。对于后者，学员将开始担任匹配基因组实验室的统计顾问，然后在一年的过程中，在一个或多个实验室项目中成为积极合作者。大多数学生将在研究生课程的前三年得到支持。科学培训将补充 专门为满足该领域研究人员的需求而开发的负责任的研究。该培训涉及生物统计学，基因组学和哲学教师之间的合作。描述了一项积极的招聘计划，以增强我们的培训和研究生课程的多样性，其中包括一项夏季课程，将少数民族服务机构的教职员工和本科生在夏季带到NC州，以与培训教师合作。
