NC State Genetics and Genomics Training Program - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The power and sophistication of genetics and genomics (G&G) have increased dramatically since the era of the Human Genome Project. Along with that power has come societal concerns over the appropriate use of this new knowledge. Our T32 program, “NC State Genetics and Genomics Training Program” (GGTP), will provide graduate students with rigorous training in G&G fundamentals and technical skills in cutting-edge research methods while providing content on how G&G research impacts society. T32 trainers will take advantage of synergies between the NC State Genetics and Genomics Academy (Academy) and the Genetic Engineering and Society Center (GES Center) in providing our trainees with the knowledge and skills needed to work collaboratively across disciplines, and to interact with citizens and policy makers who ask not just, “Can we develop a new innovation?”, but also “Should we develop it?” and if so, “How should we develop it?” The Academy is well positioned to manage this T32 program — for five years, Academy leadership has run a highly successful trans-departmental Genetics and Genomics Scholars Program (Scholars Program) for incoming, first-year life sciences PhD students that provides an overview of G&G theories, techniques, and technologies, as well as training in G&G data sciences, professional development, and team science. Leveraging the success and experience running the Scholars Program, Academy leadership and faculty have developed the GGTP, a more-focused training program that will support trainees in their second and third years of graduate school who have an expressed interest in the intersection of G&G research and societal implications. NC State’s unique GES Center connects G&G researchers with social science experts to address ethics and societal impacts of genetic engineering and genomics. This Center is recognized for leadership at the national and international level and has led two large interdisciplinary NSF graduate training grants. The social science faculty from the GES Center have developed a course on Emerging Technologies & Society: Genetics & Genomics in Biomedicine for GGTP trainees. GES Center faculty will be involved in other T32 activities including the mentoring of trainees, engagement projects, seminar series, and mentor training. The Academy, funded by the NC State Provost, will provide financial and administrative support needed to undergird T32 activities. Faculty from the Academy and the GES Center will work collaboratively on the T32 Executive Committee to administer the training program. Trainees will be drawn from six graduate programs with trainers nominating graduate students in their second semester at NC State. We propose that each year three selected trainees will receive T32 fellowships and one will be supported by the Academy with support spanning two years. T32 funding will facilitate integration of rigorous G&G research with social science training across campus in order to prepare our students to become leaders in 21st century biomedical careers.
