The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded our department’s T32 Postdoctoral Training Program “Research Training in Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine” funding for a second five-year term. Yan Xu, PhD, Vice Chair of Basic Sciences, directs the program, which includes 33 leading scientist mentors in anesthesiology and related disciplines, including critical care medicine, surgery, computational & systems biology, and neuroscience. The goal of the fellowship program is to develop clinician-scientists who will be leaders in the field of anesthesia research, by providing rigorous postdoctoral research training with an emphasis on hypothesis-driven laboratory or clinical research. The program will fund three trainee positions per year beginning July 1, 2012.
Full details about the T32 training program are published in the research section of our website.
