MD Anderson Cancer Center
The program is geared toward young scientists pursuing integrated; translational research focused on advancing promising new nanoscience-based technologies to improve cancer care. The fellows will commit much of their time to research and technical training. The research projects will be clinically and biologically relevant to cancer and examine nanoscience and nanotechnology as potential solutions. A detailed mentoring plan will be developed for each fellow that includes research project aims, multidisciplinary coursework, and seminar experiences. The main goal of this T32 training program is to educate future leaders in the broad field of nanotechnology with specific interests in cancer-related applications, which are keenly aware of the needs and demands of a clinical environment and the major challenges of translational research. After completing this program, the trainees will be able to demonstrate the ability to carry out independent translational research in cancer nanotechnology. Didactic coursework will prepare them to contribute to research projects that directly address barriers to the translation of nanotechnology-based approaches and to develop the skills needed to define and lead such projects.
