## Abstract

Abstract
The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus T32 training program in Molecular and Systems
Toxicology (MST) provides a multi-disciplinary research mentorship program centered around training in systems
toxicology including genomics/epigenetics, proteomics, and metabolomics as well as molecular approaches to
understand underlying mechanisms of toxicity. The T32 training program is housed under the multi-institutional
Toxicology and Pharmaceutical Sciences graduate programs which are based within the Department of
Pharmaceutical Sciences, Skaggs School of Pharmacy, but which includes faculty from the Schools of Medicine
and Public Health on the Anschutz Medical Campus and also includes faculty from National Jewish Health. The
MST training program successfully trained 9 PhD students from 2019-2023. For renewal of the MST T32 training
program, we are requesting 3 predoctoral positions/year for 2 years of support (in years 3 & 4 for a total of 15
predoctoral trainees over 5 years). The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus MST training program
is be supported by 18 faculty which are focused on systems toxicology research and are listed as mentors on
this T32 application. This training program has the primary goal and responsibility of developing predoctoral
students into independent and successful environmental health scientists with expertise in systems toxicology.
This goal will be achieved by utilizing: 1) internationally recognized, well-funded research mentors in systems
toxicology; 2) outstanding institutional support from the UC Anschutz campus; 3) targeted didactic learning
approaches; 4) training in responsible conduct in research, grant writing and career development; 5) continued
excellence in recruitment and enhancement of diversity; 6) continued student engagement in research, education
and career development through various programs; 7) continual development of systems toxicology related
coursework and experiences; 8) evaluation metrics to continually improve the MST training program. Ultimately,
we expect our trainees to develop into independent scientists with the knowledge and skills to address challenges
in toxicology and environmental health using cutting edge `omics' and `big data' approaches.
