Program Structure

Along with working side by side in research activities with our faculty mentors, trainees will be expected to attend graduate seminars in "Molecular and Clinical Nutrition." They will also participate in workshops on Grant Proposal Writing. Throughout each year, trainees will attend weekly seminars by visiting scientists, weekly work-in-progress presentations by the PBRC faculty, weekly post-doc journal club meetings, and weekly post-doc data presentations (during at least one of these each year, trainees will present their own research). Finally, during their first year, trainees will attend a summer program of weekly seminars to provide an introduction to research methods and resources at PBRC.

* Only applicants who are US citizens or have resident alien status will be considered for these training programs.
