癌症生物学和基因组学哲学博士

癌症生物学和基因组学（CBG）的博士学位课程重点在于对研究人员进行策略培训，以了解包括细胞生物学和基因组学方法在内的癌症发展和进展机制。最终目标是将基本发现转化为诊断，治疗和最终治愈方法。该计划针对这些目标采用了多学科方法，并充分认识到不同器官中的癌症代表着不同的疾病。然而，所有癌症都与细胞不受控制的增殖有关，许多癌症具有很强的遗传易感性。因此，该计划的主要特点包括与医学相关的兴趣以及在许多与癌症相关的研究领域中技能广泛且特征多样的培训和教职人员的广度。为了促进多学科方法的应用，使癌症成为过去的疾病，不同
The PhD program in Cancer Biology and Genomics (CBG) focuses on training investigators in strategies to understand the mechanisms of cancer development and progression which includes cell biological and genomic approaches. The ultimate objective is to translate basic findings into diagnostics, treatments and ultimate cures. The program applies a multidisciplinary approach toward these goals, with the full realization that cancers in different organs represent different diseases. However all cancers relate to uncontrolled cell proliferation with many cancers having a strong genetic predisposition. Consequently, major features of this program include the breadth of medically related interests and training and faculty characterized by wide and varied skills in many cancer-related research areas. To facilitate the application of multidisciplinary approaches to make cancer a disease of the past, close and regular contact between participating faculty of different disciplines and students is a major theme of this PhD program.
