The Institutional National Research Service Award (T32) is a training grant for predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees to prepare for careers with significant impact in health-related research. Erica was recently awarded this grant for the Mathematical, Computational, and Systems Biology (MCSB) program specifically, which, according to their grant description online, “requests support for a pre-doctoral training program designed to produce Ph.D.s with sufficient skills in fundamental biology, mathematical and computational modeling, and data science to attack these challenges [in biomedical science] head on.” The training program will involve an extensive cirriculum, close mentorship, and collaborative learning. Congrats, Erica!
