[PDF] PROGRAM LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Cancer Biology and 43092_7PROGRAM_LEARNING_OBJECTIVES_CBG.pdf PROGRAM LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Cancer Biology and Genomics (CBG) The goal of the Ph.D. program in Cancer Biology and Genomics (CBG) is to train investigators in strategies to understand the mechanisms of cancer development and progression. Strategies in this program encompass cell biological and genomic approaches. The ultimate aim 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, the breadth of medically related interests and training are major features of this program and wide and varied skills in many research areas as it relates to cancer characterize the faculty members. 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. Specific learning objectives to achieve these goals thus include: Understand basic aspects of cancer pathology. What is cancer? Understand chromatin as it relates to gene expression. Understand epigenetics and somatic genetic changes in tumors. Understand modern aspects of RNA and protein biology. Understand the cell cycle, angiogenesis and apoptosis. Be familiar with basic facets of carcinogenesis and methods to study the process. Be familiar with basic principals and applications of cell culture and animal models to study cancer. Understand how genetics contributes to predisposition and progression of cancer. Understand the differences and overlap of cancers by tissue type. Understand how immunotherapy is, and can be, used to treat human illness: strategies, advantages, and hurdles to overcome to realize its potential. The utility of these program-learning objectives is to help students understand what is expected of them and to help faculty members improve program quality and effectiveness based on student performance. Thus, ultimately graduates from this program should become independent scientists/teachers with a full appreciation of the scientific method to contribute significantly to academia and/or industry.
