DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application proposes a comprehensive pre-doctoral training program in Genetics and Cell Biology (GCB) at The Rockefeller University, an institution with a rich history in these areas. The GCB training program would be a specialized unit of the Ph.D. program at Rockefeller, and is specifically designed for genetics and cell biology training. This program will include required course work, to provide a strong intellectual foundation; a special seminar series, where trainees can present their results and gain experience in oral presentation; and extensive research opportunities. We will provide careful oversight of the trainees' activities and progress annually by meetings with the Program Director; a Program Advisory Committee of selected faculty for general curriculum and research advice; and a Faculty Advisory Committee, specifically designed for each trainee to provide detailed experimental guidance. The training faculty would be 51 strong investigators, ranging from full Professors, with extensive experience in training students, to newly hired Assistant Professors. The faculty has expertise in a very broad range of genetics and cell biology, ranging from the most basic to epidemiological studies on humans, and the program would encourage trainees to perform collaborative work in various areas with different faculty. The applicant pool is outstanding, containing a large number of undergraduate students who have superb academic and research accomplishments, and who are primarily interested in genetics and cell biology. Finally, the University provides extensive support for the graduate program in general, which would benefit the proposed training program. The confluence of these attributes defines a specific training program in genetics and cell biology that would equip trainees with the educational background, analytical abilities, and experimental expertise to forge future advances in biology.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请提出了洛克菲勒大学（Rockefeller University）的遗传学和细胞生物学（GCB）的全面博士前培训计划，洛克菲勒大学（Rockefeller University）是一家在这些领域拥有丰富历史的机构。 GCB培训计划将是博士学位的专业部门。在洛克菲勒（Rockefeller）的计划，专门为遗传学和细胞生物学培训而设计。 该计划将包括必要的课程工作，以提供强大的知识基础；一个特别的研讨会系列，学员可以展示他们的结果并获得口头演示的经验；和广泛的研究机会。 我们将通过与计划主任会议每年对学员的活动进行仔细的监督；一般课程和研究建议的选定学院计划咨询委员会；还有一个教师咨询委员会，专门为每个学员设计，以提供详细的实验指导。 培训学院将是51名强大的调查人员，从拥有丰富的培训学生经验的完整教授到新雇用的助理教授。 该学院在非常广泛的遗传学和细胞生物学方面具有专业知识，从最基本到人类流行病学研究不等，该计划将鼓励受训者在具有不同教师的各个领域进行合作工作。 申请人池非常出色，其中包含大量具有出色学术和研究成就的本科生，并且主要对遗传学和细胞生物学感兴趣。 最后，大学为总体研究生课程提供了广泛的支持，这将使拟议的培训计划受益。 这些属性的融合定义了遗传学和细胞生物学方面的特定培训计划，该计划将使受训者拥有教育背景，分析能力和实验专业知识，以实现生物学未来的进步。
