The primary mission of the UC Davis eMCDB Training Program is to provide predoctoral Trainees with outstanding research and career training aimed at preparing them to become successful leaders in the national biomedical workforce. This mission can be broken down into three main threads. First, we aim to maximize the scientific growth of our Trainees in the interdisciplinary area of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology, particularly as it relates to quantitative approaches and biostatistics. Second, we aim to provide enhanced training activities designed to support our Trainees in becoming creative, rigorous, ethical, and resilient scientists with honed communication skills and access to strong mentorship resources and career development activities. Third, we aim to enhance graduate education beyond the confines of this T32 program and impact student training broadly by making as many of our activities open to all CBS-affiliated students.
