ABSTRACT The objective of this professional student short-term research training grant is to provide predoctoral training opportunities to 14 veterinary students annually who have completed their first or second year with immersive experiential learning by carrying out mentored biomedical research, enriched by seminars and events that are designed to inspire them for careers combining their medical training and research. The goal of the program is to capture the enthusiasm and imaginations of DVM students early in their training to prime their appreciation and capacity for basic and translational research. Students will be engaged in hypothesis- driven discovery and problem-solving research in a high-quality laboratory setting for 12 weeks during the summer. Only the most outstanding researchers/mentors from have been included as trainees in the proposed research training program. Participating faculty have been grouped into the following areas of research excellence: 1) Antimicrobial Resistance and Microbial Pathogenesis, 2) Vector Borne Diseases and Disease Ecology, 3) Immunity and Immune Modulation 4) Airway Biology and Disese 5) Comparative Toxicology and 5) Animal Models, Sponaneous Diseases in Animals and Translational Studies, serving as convergent foci. A week long orientation program, and special events have been designed to guide the students for success in this experiential learning opportunity. Training in responsible conduct of research and data reproducibility and reliability are integral parts of the program with special sessions and seminars reinforcing these principles. Recruitment efforts planned are directed not only to DVM students in our college, but to veterinary students from other U.S. colleges of veterinary medicine and are designed to ensure that students underrepresented in the biomedical sciences have access to this research experience. All students participating in the program are required to present their research results at the annual College of Veterinary Medicine Phi Zeta Research Day, and encouraged to present at the National Veterinary Scholars Symposium and other national professional meetings, and to publish their work with their mentors, as appropriate. Increasing our human capital in veterinary scientists is critical to the protection of public health and advancement of science that benefits animals and humans, both as individuals and as populations. Summer research experiences provide a critical step into the research enterprise to the veterinary students early in their training and foster interest and develop aptitude for further training in the biomedical sciences, serving as a steping stone for research intensive careers as biomedical scientists.

摘要 这项专业学生短期研究培训助学金的目的是提供博士前培训。 每年向14名兽医学生提供机会，这些学生在完成第一年或第二年的 身临其境的体验式学习，通过开展有指导的生物医学研究，通过研讨会和 旨在激励他们结合医学培训和研究的职业生涯的活动。目标是 该计划的目的是激发DVM学生在培训初期的热情和想象力 他们对基础研究和翻译研究的欣赏和能力。学生们将参与假说-- 在高质量的实验室环境中进行12周的驱动型发现和问题解决研究 夏天。只有来自的最杰出的研究人员/导师才被选为 提出了研究培训计划。参与的教员分为以下几个方面： 研究成果：1)抗菌素耐药性与微生物致病机制；2)媒介传播疾病 和疾病生态学，3)免疫和免疫调节4)呼吸道生物学和疾病5)比较 毒理学和5)动物模型、动物皮肤病和翻译研究，作为 会聚的焦点。为期一周的迎新计划和特别活动已被设计来指导 学生在这一体验式学习机会中取得成功。负责任的研究行为培训 数据的再现性和可靠性是该方案与特别会议和 加强这些原则的研讨会。计划的招聘工作不仅针对DVM学生 我们学院，但面向来自其他美国兽医学院的兽医学生，并旨在 确保在生物医学科学中代表性不足的学生能够获得这种研究经验。全 参加该项目的学生被要求在每年一度的 兽医皮泽塔研究日，并鼓励在国家兽医学者大会上发表演讲 研讨会和其他国家专业会议，并与他们的导师一起发表他们的工作，如 恰如其分。增加我们兽医科学家的人力资本对于保护公众健康和 科学的进步，造福动物和人类，无论是作为个体还是作为群体。 暑期研究经历为兽医学生提供了进入研究企业的关键一步 早期进行培训，培养兴趣并发展能力，以便在生物医学方面进行进一步培训 科学，作为生物医学科学家从事研究密集型职业的踏脚石。
