DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The continuation of the Cancer Biology Training Program is proposed at the University of Michigan. The central goal of this program is to train exceptional junior investigators to address fundamental biological problems related to human cancer. The Cancer Biology Training Program is both multidisciplinary and interdepartmental, drawing its strength from the interdisciplinary cooperation of 41 faculty members from 15 basic science and clinical departments within The University of Michigan Medical School: Biological Chemistry, Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Dermatology, Human Genetics, Internal Medicine, Medicinal Chemistry, Microbiology & Immunology, Neurology, Otolaryngology, Pathology, Pediatrics, Pharmacology, Physiology, Radiation Oncology and Urology. The Program draws further strength from its association with The University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center. The Program trains both predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars with research opportunities focusing on five specific areas of research: Cancer Genetics, Cancer Cell Biology, Molecular Therapeutics, Radiation Sciences and Molecular Imaging. Postdoctoral fellows will have completed a Ph.D. degree in one of the physical or biological sciences, or have completed an M.D. degree. Predoctoral students will comprise a subset of students already accepted into established graduate programs in Biological Chemistry, Cell and Developmental Biology, Cellular and Molecular Biology, Human Genetics, Microbiology and Immunology, Neurosciences, Pathology, Pharmacology, or Physiology. All trainees must have significant interest in pursing a career in some aspect of cancer-related research. This interdepartmental training program is dove-tailed into existing departmental programs while providing a cohesive, high quality training experience in cancer biology. Predoctoral trainees will be expected to graduate to outstanding postdoctoral positions, while postdoctoral trainees should assume leading academic and research positions.

描述（由申请人提供）：密歇根大学提出了癌症生物学培训计划的延续。该计划的核心目标是培训杰出的初级研究人员，以解决与人类癌症有关的基本生物学问题。癌症生物学培训计划既是多学科和跨部门，也从密歇根大学医学院的15名基础科学和临床部门的41位教职员工的跨学科合作中汲取了力量儿科，药理学，生理学，放射肿瘤学和泌尿科。该计划从与密歇根大学综合癌症中心的关联中汲取了进一步的力量。该计划培训二十二个学者和博士后学者，研究机会着重于五个特定研究领域：癌症遗传学，癌细胞生物学，分子疗法，辐射科学和分子成像。博士后研究员将完成博士学位。物理或生物科学之一或已完成医学博士学位的学位。专业的学生将构成已经在生物化学，细胞和发育生物学，细胞和分子生物学，人类遗传学，微生物学和免疫学，神经科学，病理学，药理学或生理学的学生，细胞和分子生物学，人类遗传学，微生物学和免疫学，病理学，药理学或生理学方面的一部分。所有学员必须在与癌症相关的研究的某些方面从事职业有重大兴趣。该部门间培训计划涉及现有部门计划，同时提供了癌症生物学的凝聚力，高质量的培训经验。预计学会前学员将毕业于出色的博士后职位，而博士后学员应担任领先的学术和研究职位。
