Description: PROJECT NARRATIVE This new T32 Training Grant will contribute knowledgeable and well-trained basic and translational research scientists experienced in multidisciplinary research in, and informed of the public health importance of, primary brain tumors, especially gliomas and glioblastoma (GBM) to the nation's cancer research enterprise. Each trainee will develop a skill set of critical thinking, academic rigor and mastery of the experimental technique, all within a construct of the ethical conduct of research. To meet this objective, the T32 will have: (1) Stringent candidate selection; (2) Comprehensive guidance by investigators with expertise in the relevant area of interest and extensive experience as research mentors; (3) Prescribed training and education; and, (4) Collaboration with investigators within Mayo Clinic Cancer Center (MCCC), its Translational Research Program in Neuro- Oncology (the Program), and the Mayo Specialized Program of Research Excellence in Brain Cancer (the SPORE).
