EDUCATION AND OUTREACH UNIT – SUMMARY The two Research Projects and Transport Oncophysics Core (TOC) of the proposed Center for Immunotherapeutic Transport Oncophysics (CITO) form a collaborative and cohesive program to determine and understand the transport of immune cells, molecules, and particles, through systemic circulation and within the tumor microenvironment, and to exploit these features for the rational design of effective cancer immunotherapies and vaccines for breast and pancreatic cancers. To achieve this overarching goal, we recognize the need to foster current and future generations of individuals with a distinctive and powerful combination of transdisciplinary knowledge and skill sets in physical sciences oncology and the commitment to sharing and exploring this emerging domain with the scientific and lay communities. The Education and Outreach Unit (EOU) will promote the education and development of faculty, trainees, students, and advocates within the CITO. It will also serve as the mechanism for CITO members to engage with other Physical Sciences-Oncology Centers (PS-OCs), the broader scientific community, and the public, and to disseminate information and concepts on the physical sciences in cancer research and patient care. Detailed descriptions of planned programs and activities can be found in the EOU component of this application; we also summarize them in the Administrative Core (AC) component. We will organize several types of programs and activities that are intended to: 1) bring in new expertise and perspectives on physical sciences oncology (conferences, seminars, workshops, public engagement forums); 2) offer trainees and students avenues for interactive, laboratory- and/or clinic-based education in physical sciences oncology (fast-track research opportunities); 3) enable CITO investigators to take a sabbatical to other Physical Sciences-Oncology Network (PS-ON) laboratories as part of cross-training opportunities; 4) disseminate information to the public on the ideas, technologies, and capabilities of physical sciences oncology, and its potential impact on cancer research and patient care (via the Community Engagement Program with our patient advocates); and 5) gather relevant information and feedback from the patient community and the general public that would continue to guide and drive the CITO's research, educational, and outreach activities. The AC is charged with managing and facilitating activities for the EOU. Dr. Mauro Ferrari (CITO Principal Investigator, PI) will set the programmatic framework for the EOU, which will align with the thematic elements of the CITO Projects and TOC. He and the three other AC Co-Leaders (Dr. Elizabeth Mittendorf, Dr. Rongfu Wang, and Dr. Rolf Brekken) will lend strategic direction for the overall activities of the EOU, and the Center Administrator, Dr. Hanh Hoang, and staff will support them in implementing and coordinating those activities based on the requirements outlined by the CITO and the PS-ON.

教育和外展单位 - 摘要 拟议中心的两个研究项目和运输肿瘤物理核心（TOC） 免疫治疗运输肿瘤物质（CITO）构成了一个协作和凝聚力的计划 通过全身循环确定和理解免疫细胞，分子和颗粒的转运 在肿瘤微环境中，并探索这些特征，以进行有效癌症的合理设计 乳腺癌和胰腺癌的免疫疗法和疫苗。为了实现这个总体目标，我们 认识到需要培养具有独特和强大的个人的当前和后代 跨学科知识和物理科学肿瘤学和技能集的结合结合 致力于与科学和外行社区共享和探索这个新兴领域。这 教育和外展单位（EOU）将促进教师，学员，教育和发展 学生，并在Cito中提倡。它也将作为Cito成员参与的机制 与其他物理科学 - 癌中心（PS-OC），更广泛的科学界和公众， 并传播有关癌症研究和患者护理中物理科学的信息和概念。 可以在此的EOU组件中找到计划的程序和活动的详细描述 应用;我们还将它们总结在管理核心（AC）组件中。我们将组织几个 旨在：1）对物理的新专业知识和观点的类型 科学肿瘤学（会议，半手，讲习班，公共参与论坛）； 2）提供学员和 学生在互动，实验室和/或基于诊所的物理科学肿瘤学教育方面的途径 （快速轨道研究机会）； 3）使Cito调查人员能够休假给其他物理 科学 - 肿瘤网络（PS-ON）实验室作为交叉训练机会的一部分； 4）传播 向公众提供有关物理科学肿瘤学的思想，技术和能力的信息 对癌症研究和患者护理的潜在影响（通过我们的社区参与计划与我们 患者拥护者）； 5）收集患者社区和反馈的相关信息和反馈 将继续指导和推动Cito的研究，教育和外展的公众 活动。 AC负责管理和支持EOU的活动。毛罗·法拉利（Cito）博士 PI）首席研究员将为EOU设置程序化框架，该框架将与理论保持一致 Cito项目和TOC的要素。他和其他三位AC共同领导者（伊丽莎白·米滕多夫（Elizabeth Mittendorf）博士，博士。 Rongfu Wang和Rolf Brekken博士将为EOU的整体活动提供战略方向， 中心管理员Hanh Hoang博士和工作人员将支持他们实施和协调这些 根据CITO和PS-ON概述的要求的活动。
