      The Principles of Genetics and Epigenetics class is designed for students who have a major interest in the aspects of experimental and human genetics and epigenetics as they relate to human disease, including Mendelian disorders, complex diseases and cancer. Students are required to have completed the core course. This class will provide in-depth instruction on four areas: 1) Experimental genetics, 2) Human genetics, 3) Epigenetics, 4) Functional bioinformatics. The class will be held two times a week for one and a half hours. Students are expected to actively participate in the course by initiating discussions, asking questions, and providing constructive comments, as well as completing bi-weekly homework assignments based on the material covered in the lectures. Students will be evaluated by attendance, participation, and overall performance on the assigned homework. This course is designed to prepare the student to generate novel hypothesis-driven projects in the areas of genetics and epigenetics.

      Stem cells, be they embryonic or somatic, play crucial roles in the development and functional maintenance of individual organ systems and complete organisms. As has already been well demonstrated for the blood-forming system through bone marrow transplantation, stem cells can be utilized clinically for treatment of genetic or acquired diseases. The next couple of decades will undoubtedly provide many more successful clinical applications of stem cells in regenerative medicine. Stem cells may also play critical roles themselves in the initiation and maintenance of certain diseases, such as cancer. This course will provide a present-day understanding of the precise definition, molecular characterization, and biological function of stem cells. Our focus will primarily be on fundamental issues regarding stem cells, as well as on their wide range of potential future applications. Completion of this course will adequately prepare students to both identify and understand fundamental issues in current stem cell research, as well as to contribute themselves to advancing this field through research.

It starts with discussions on disease processes, through therapy development, then to clinical translation. The course is grouped into a series of general topics. The first topic includes disease mechanisms in microbial, viral, fungal, neurodegenerative, and malignant settings in order to better understand the nature of the problems. The second topic focuses on the development of lead molecules and drug design, including x-ray crystallography, molecular modeling, hit identification, lead optimization, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic studies. The third topic puts emphasis on drug screening methodologies, including high-throughput/content technologies and molecular imaging as well as in vitro and in vivo preclinical model systems. The fourth topic covers different therapeutic modalities and improved drug delivery systems. It also describes the latest development of immunotherapy, cell therapy, gene therapy, and stem cell transplantation. The fifth topic focuses on the identification of novel molecular targeting strategies and efforts toward individualization of therapy with state-of-the-art –omics technologies and biomarker development. The final topic group focuses on translating therapeutic strategies to the clinic, including the phases of preclinical studies, clinical trial design and execution, and regulatory considerations.将有三个考试;每个占最终成绩的33.33%。考试结构是基于论文的。

    2. Immunology Program students must complete the Scientific Writing requirement before taking the candidacy exam. If the grant-writing course is used to fulfill the requirement, the subject of the course proposal is expected to be different from the subject of the student's candidacy examination.

    3.审查委员会应由五名教职员工组成,如GSBS指南详细介绍了审查委员会。审查委员会必须至少包括两个免疫学计划教师,并且不能包括主要导师或联合主管。免疫学计划的学生应在成立检查委员会之前咨询计划主管。

    4.候选资格考试可以是主题的或主题的。点击这里to view the complete policy.


    咨询委员会要求

    学生的咨询委员会组成和要求与GSB所述相同。该学生在与他们的导师协商时选择咨询委员会。咨询委员会由至少五名成员组成,包括教师赞助者/导师和联合学者(如果有)。五个委员会成员中至少有三名必须是免疫学课程教师。在组建咨询委员会之前,学生应咨询免疫学计划主管。

    The committee must meet with the student at least once every six months to monitor research and academic progress and to ensure that the Program’s standards of excellence are maintained.
