项目摘要

Project Summary The overarching goal of this longstanding “Training Program in Basic Cancer Research” is to provide the fundamental skills necessary for our trainees to succeed in outstanding careers in biomedical cancer research. Toward that goal we provide them with superior training in the conduct of cutting edge research, combined with a deep appreciation of the clinical challenges that doctors and patients face. To achieve this goal, we have created a unique Training program, now entering its 45th year, entitled the Training Program in Basic Cancer Research (TP-BCR). Support is requested for five postdoctoral fellows, and three predoctoral fellows from the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine, program in Biomedical Graduate Studies. Located at the heart of the University of Pennsylvania campus, Wistar offers a superb research environment, recently rated “Exceptional” at the most recent CCSG renewal in 2018. We have crafted a training program that combines unique sub-programs entitled “Bench to Bedside Training” and a “Science Entrepreneurs” program, thus offering our trainees exposure to clinicians and clinical problems in cancer research, unique insight into the business of science and intellectual property, and a robust curriculum that includes workshops in teaching, writing, and grant preparation. Our 26 faculty mentors tackle diverse questions in cancer, most have long-standing successful training records, and all are well-funded, with an average of $890,000/year/mentor (DC). Our current trainee pool consists of 79 trainees, which includes 24 predoctoral trainees (13 TGE) and 55 postdoctoral trainees (20 TGE). There is an average of four TGE applicants for each proffered slot, thus allowing us to place the most highly qualified trainees in this program. All slots have been continuously filled for the entire funding period, and our trainees continue to be highly productive, with 4.7 manuscripts and 2 first author manuscripts per trainee averaged in the past three cycles, and 98% of our trainees continuing in research-related or research-intensive careers. Taken together, this long-standing program, which is the only T32 centered at The Wistar Institute, will provide the fundamental skills necessary for our trainees to flourish in successful independent careers in cancer research.

项目摘要这个长期存在的“基本癌症研究培训计划”的总体目标是提供我们的学员成功地从事生物医学癌症的杰出职业所需的基本技能研究。为了实现这一目标，我们为他们提供了尖端的卓越训练研究，加上对医生和患者面临的临床挑战的深刻欣赏。到实现这一目标，我们创建了一个独特的培训计划，现在进入了45年，标题为基础癌症研究（TP-BCR）的培训计划。要求提供五个博士后研究员，以及宾夕法尼亚大学佩雷尔曼医学院的三名摄取餐厅生物医学研究生研究计划。位于宾夕法尼亚大学校园的中心 Wistar提供了一个出色的研究环境，最近在最近的CCSG上评为“杰出” 2018年的续约。我们制定了一个培训计划，该计划结合了独特的子程序，标题为“替补席接受床头培训”和“科学企业家”计划，从而使我们的受训者接触癌症研究中的临床医生和临床问题，对科学业务的独特见解和知识产权和强大的课程，其中包括教学，写作和授予的讲习班准备。我们的26位教师导师解决了癌症的潜水员问题，大多数人长期存在成功的培训记录和所有资金都得到了充分的资金，平均每年为890,000美元/导师（DC）。我们的当前的学员游泳池由79名学员组成，其中包括24名学员（13个TGE）和55名。博士后学员（20 TGE）。每个提出的插槽平均有四个TGE申请人，因此允许我们将最高资格的培训放在该计划中。所有插槽一直是连续的在整个资金期间填补，我们的学员继续发挥高效，有4.7手稿在过去的三个周期中，每名学员平均2个第一作者手稿，我们的98％的学员继续从事研究有关或研究密集型职业。两者一起，这个长期存在的计划是Wistar Institute中心的唯一T32，将提供基本技能我们的学员在癌症研究中成功的独立职业中浮动所必需的。
