Note:
(SAM Category 1.1.1.) Vertically Integrated Interdisciplinary Training in Mathematics for Human Health program at the University of Texas at Arlington will provide an integrated research, mentoring, and education experience for 17 (9 undergrads; 6 PhDs; 2 Postdocs) trainees in the following 3 research themes: Cancer Biology, Computational Neurology, and Vector-Borne Diseases. The RTG program naturally builds on several NSF- and DoED-sponsored mentoring and training programs in Mathematics and articulates well with institutional goals of enhancing interdisciplinary research, education, and community engagement in the area of Health and the Human Condition. Scholars will be trained in mathematical and computational methods for diagnosis, assessment, and treatment of chronic and infectious diseases. A group of 10 UTA Mathematics faculty will fully participate in all program activities, supported by collaborators from UTA Nursing, Bioengineering, Biology, and Psychology, UT Southwestern Medical Center, and UNT Health Science Center. The scholars’ training will be accomplished by joint UTA faculty co-mentoring from mathematics and the health sciences, RTG peers, UTA support services, and researchers from RTG partner institutions and industry scientists.
