DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This T32 application requests NEI support to train pre- and post-doctoral fellows in vision research at the University of Michigan. The program is entitled, the "Vision Research Training Program at the University of Michigan," and it will contribute to training the next generation of vision scientists engaged in research on the cellular, molecular and developmental biology of the retina and retinal pigmented epithelium and on the molecular genetics of inherited ophthalmic disease. Support for four predoctoral and two postdoctoral fellows is requested. Support for predoctoral fellows is exclusively for students that have passed their preliminary exams, have formally entered Ph.D. candidacy and will complete their thesis research in the laboratory of one of the Training Faculty- Support will average 3 years. Support for postdoctoral fellows provides 1 year of transitional funding during which the fellow will apply for independent support, likely via an individual NRSA. Trainees will perform their research in the laboratories of the Training Faculty that are distributed across five basic science departments (Biological Chemistry, Cell and Developmental Biology, Epidemiology, Human Genetics and Physiology), two degree-granting training programs (the Neuroscience Program and Cell and Molecular Biology) and two schools (Medicine and Public Health). In addition to their individual didactic and laboratory training, each fellow in the Vision Research Training Program will receive formal training in research responsibility, participate in a reading/lecture/discussion course entitled "Fundamental Issues in Vision Research," and attend "Vision Lunch," a weekly seminar series at the University of Michigan that has been meeting since 1969

描述（由申请人提供）：此 T32 申请请求 NEI 支持培训密歇根大学视觉研究的博士前和博士后研究员。该项目名为“密歇根大学视觉研究培训项目”，它将有助于培训下一代视觉科学家，从事视网膜和视网膜色素上皮的细胞、分子和发育生物学等研究。遗传性眼科疾病的分子遗传学。请求支持四名博士前研究员和两名博士后研究员。对博士前研究员的支持专门针对通过初步考试并正式进入博士学位的学生。候选人将在培训学院之一的实验室完成论文研究 - 支持平均为 3 年。对博士后研究员的支持提供 1 年的过渡资金，在此期间，研究员将可能通过个人 NRSA 申请独立支持。学员将在培训学院的实验室中进行研究，这些实验室分布在五个基础科学系（生物化学、细胞和发育生物学、流行病学、人类遗传学和生理学）、两个授予学位的培训项目（神经科学项目和细胞与发育生物学）。分子生物学）和两所学校（医学和公共卫生）。 除了个人教学和实验室培训外，视觉研究培训计划的每位研究员还将接受研究责任方面的正式培训，参加题为“视觉研究中的基本问题”的阅读/讲座/讨论课程，并​​参加“视觉午餐， “密歇根大学自 1969 年以来每周举办的系列研讨会
