项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Current pre- and postdoctoral training in the biomedical sciences effectively trains rising scientists within a narrow scope of laboratory-based skills. Unfortunately, the training hasn't changed to teach other skills- communications, management, entrepreneurship and more-that have become increasingly vital for successful careers in science. And such skills are particularly essential for the nine out of 10 Ph.D.-level scientists who ultimately pursue work outside the traditional academic tenure track. The Whole Scientist Program (WSP), as proposed, provides robust training at The Jackson Laboratory (JAX) for pre- and postdoctoral learners in necessary skills not taught in traditional biomedical training programs. It combines classroom learning with applied practicums to help learners develop capability and confidence in teaching, management and communications. It will also expose learners to a wide variety of rewarding professional scientific careers outside the academic tenure track. JAX is an ideal venue for the course, as its many facets-mouse model development and distribution, database management, core scientific services, etc.-provide varied examples of rewarding scientific careers and excellent practicum instructors on-site. The WSP will be offered to learners both within and outside JAX and will enhance the traditional core training programs offered by learners' home institutions. It will also be developed as an on-line course to expand its outreach. The course's effectiveness at teaching diverse skills and impact on learners' career paths will be carefully assessed and tracked at defined intervals, with feedback incorporated into future course offerings.

描述（由申请人提供）：目前生物医学领域的博士前和博士后培训在有限的实验室技能范围内有效地培训了新兴科学家，不幸的是，培训并没有改变以教授其他技能——沟通、管理、创业和技能。企业家精神对于科学事业的成功变得越来越重要，对于最终在整个科学家计划之外从事工作的十分之九的博士级科学家来说尤其重要。 WSP），如杰克逊实验室 (JAX) 为博士前和博士后学习者提供了传统生物医学培训项目中未教授的强大培训，它将课堂学习与应用实践相结合，帮助学习者培养教学技能、管理和沟通方面的能力和信心。它还将使学习者接触到学术终身职位之外的各种有益的专业科学职业，JAX 是该课程的理想场所，因为它涉及鼠标模型开发和分发、数据库管理、核心科学服务等多个方面。提供各种有益的科学职业的例子， WSP 将为 JAX 内部和外部的学习者提供现场培训，并将增强学习者所在机构提供的传统核心培训计划，并将开发为在线课程以扩大其覆盖范围。该课程在教授各种技能方面的有效性以及对学习者职业道路的影响将按照规定的时间间隔进行仔细评估和跟踪，并将反馈纳入未来的课程设置中。
