The objective of the training program in cancer pharmacology is to provide postdoctoral fellows with the thorough training required for an independent scientific career in cancer pharmacology. A three-year program of advanced research experience and specialized instruction in the theoretical background and techniques relevant to cancer pharmacology research is offered. Training programs are individualized according to the needs of each trainee, using the resources of the faculty mentor as well as the combined resources of the faculty of the Cancer Pharmacology Program. The compact nature of the institution and the affiliation of many of the Cancer Pharmacology Program faculty with the Medical Sciences Division promote the exchange of ideas between the laboratory and clinic.
Faculty interact closely with trainees at all levels.
