Graduate NIH Training in BiotechnologyProgram ComponentsSeminarsYou must attend two seminars (outside your own department) each term. Below is a listing of seminar programs avialable to you.
Journal ClubYou must attend Journal Club meetings. At each meeting an engineering or life science graduate student will present a paper (45 minutes) from the literature followed by questions and discussion. A Training Program faculty member will select the paper. After reviewing the paper, but at least two weeks before the presentation, the student must meet with the faculty member who assigned the paper to discuss the paper and the presentation. Following the student presentation at the journal club the students and faculty will go for a group dinner. Industrial InternshipAll the students in the training program (except those who worked in industry prior to joining the program) are required to participate in industrial internships of about three months in duration. The internship can begin as soon as the Summer of student second year in residence. The duration of industrial internship will be about 3-4 months. Thus, industrial internships can be arranged readily. The duration of industrial internship will be about 3-4 months. Students completing industrial internships will be required to present a short seminar sharing their research and working experience with the program faculty and students at the Annual Graduate Symposium. |
