DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this cancer research training program is to immerse the trainee in an interdisciplinary and translational research environment that is representative of cancer research and patient care today. The program's emphasis is on comprehensive training in basic and translational research, and has an endpoint objective of preparing trainees for the role of principal investigator. A focal point for this pre- and post-doctoral program is the New Jersey Medical School-University Hospital Cancer Center, a 220,000 square foot, nine-story building that houses both state-of-the-art research facilities and cancer care outpatient services. The faculty is drawn from those that are resident in the new Cancer Center building, and from our campus' broader Cancer Center Community. A major strength of the faculty within the new building is that they are from diverse departments (9 in total), and have been situated in an open laboratory configuration that facilitates interdisciplinary research. In addition, a "Shadowing Program" has been developed to promote exposure, of the trainees to patient care and clinical research through an introductory clinical oncology course, clinical rotations in the NJMS-UH Cancer Clinic, and through attendance at tumor conferences. Other features of the program include an emphasis on mentored research on molecular mechanisms of malignancy, intramural research presentations, and mandatory grant preparation training. While the program has several new features, it builds on a long standing history of courses, and a strong track record of mentored cancer research training. Our geographic location at the hub of Newark Science Park, our emphasis on clinical exposure, our excellent research environment, and our high caliber research faculty trainers, who are supported by comprehensive research funding, combine to provide unique opportunities for trainees in this program. The active involvement in our Shadowing Program of clinicians with discrete expertise provides exposure for trainees to the diverse aspects of cancer clinical care. This feature of the program provides opportunities to seed and foster translational projects, and prepares our trainees for translational research careers. The goals are: (1) to recruit a cadre of trainees dedicated to careers in cancer research, 2) to provide didactic training in the molecular mechanisms of malignancy as well as clinical research, (3) to expose trainees to the translational research opportunities that can be identified through familiarity with the clinical environment (4) to provide pre-doctoral trainees with an exciting and contemporary program that will foster their enthusiasm for careers in cancer biology, and (5) to provide post- doctoral fellows with a unique combination of experiences and skills that will allow them to effectively and successfully transition into independent research careers. RELEVANCE. (See Instructions): The mission of this cancer research training program is to immerse the trainee in a multi-disciplinary environment that is representative of cancer research and patient care today. One of the major goals is to provide the trainees with the skills necessary to conduct clinically relevant research, and to prepare them for future careers in which they will work to speed the translation of discoveries from the laboratory to the clinic:

描述（由申请人提供）：该癌症研究培训计划的目的是将受训者浸入跨学科和翻译研究环境中，该研究代表了当今癌症研究和患者护理的代表。该计划的重点是基础研究和转化研究的全面培训，并具有为受训者做好首席研究员的作用的终点目标。该博士后计划的重点是新泽西州医学院医院癌症中心，这是一栋220,000平方英尺的九层建筑，可容纳最先进的研究设施和癌症护理门诊服务。该教师是从居住在新的癌症中心大楼以及我们校园更广泛的癌症中心社区中的教师中得出的。新建筑物中教师的主要优势是它们来自不同部门（总共9个），并且位于开放的实验室配置中，有助于跨学科研究。此外，通过入门临床肿瘤学课程，NJMS-UH癌症诊所的临床旋转以及通过参加肿瘤会议，开发了一个“阴影计划”，以促进受训者的暴露，对患者护理和临床研究的暴露。该计划的其他特征包括强调对恶性肿瘤，壁内研究演示和强制性授予准备培训的分子机制的指导研究。尽管该计划具有多个新功能，但它建立在悠久的课程历史上，并具有指导的癌症研究培训的良好记录。我们在纽瓦克科学园区枢纽的地理位置，我们对临床暴露的重视，出色的研究环境以及我们的高素质研究教师培训师，他们得到了综合研究资金的支持，它们结合在一起，为学员提供了独特的机会。积极参与我们具有离散专业知识的临床医生的阴影计划，为受训者提供了癌症临床护理各个方面的曝光率。该计划的此功能为种种和培养翻译项目提供了机会，并为我们的学员准备转化研究职业。目标是：（1）招募致力于癌症研究的学员，2）在恶性肿瘤和临床研究的分子机制中提供教学培训，（3）将受训者暴露于转化研究机会，可以通过对临床环境的熟悉和临床护理人的熟悉度来识别，以便在癌症的情况下识别出令人兴奋的人，以使他们能够获得癌症和癌症的态度。 （5）为博士后研究员提供独特的经验和技能组合，使他们能够有效，成功地过渡到独立的研究职业。 关联。 （请参阅说明）：该癌症研究培训计划的使命是将受训者浸入代表当今癌症研究和患者护理的多学科环境中。主要目标之一是为受训人员提供进行临床相关研究所需的技能，并为他们的未来职业做好准备，在这些职业中，他们将致力于加快从实验室到诊所的发现的转化：
