Working across disciplines
Several current NIH training grants:- Alcoholism - Neuroscience (3)
- Cancer biology - Molecular medicine
- Drug abuse - Microbiology and immunology
- Lipid science and inflammation
- PREP, EICS - Radiation Oncology (TRADONC) T32, postdoctoral
At least 3 in process:- Regenerative Medicine, IRACDA (postdocs), EICS (renewal)
The Graduate School supports these with boilerplate text, data collection for tables, letters of support, and often direct grant writing. Commitment to finish the installation of the Training Grant Repository which was stalled.

Recommendations:1) Consider a policy for discounted tuition to be charged
to research grants, to be phased in with new grants.
2) Explore the potential of Master’s programs for which students will pay tuition.
3) Work to enhance current revenue-generating activities.
4) Salary support should be provided for faculty involved in graduate teaching and administration.
5) Improve student learning experience as well as the efficiency of faculty effort.
6) Increased support for graduate training programs and postdoctoral programs.

Graduate School Actions:
1) Faculty task forces for tuition, Master’s, and education recommendations. Charges drafted. (Sept 2012)
2) Commitment to provide needed programming to complete the Curvita installation. (Fall 2012)
3) Positive funds flow will be administered for faculty “gEVUs” by the Graduate School. Contingent on (1).
