A Comprehensive Postdoctoral Training Program in Breast Cancer

Abstract

The goal of this training program is to significantly extend our existing, highly successful Doctoral Training Program in Tumor Biology and several Cancer Center mechanisms that provide traditional postdoctoral training and junior faculty career development. The program integrates faculty from the Lombardi Cancer Center programs in Cancer Prevent ion and Control and Cancer Genetics and makes use of the existing organizational structure of the interdisciplinary Doctoral Training Program in Tumor Biology and incorporates a multi-disciplinary faculty who are devoted to research and education in breast cancer. We have two postdoctoral fellows who have successfully completed their first year in the program and are now entering their second year of research. We have recruited one postdoctoral fellow to the program thus far who will arrive in September, 2001. Our recruitment for our second incoming class will be completed in the Fall, 2001.
