DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The National Research Council has documented a dire national need for veterinary specialists trained in biomedical research. Furthermore, veterinary researchers play a key role in comparative and translational research activities since they naturally bridge basic and clinical research. To address this training need, faculty in the CCMTR (CCMTR) at the College of Veterinary Medicine, NC State have established the Comparative Medicine and Translational Research Training Program (CMTRTP). This training program specifically target individuals with the DVM degree who have completed specialty training. Trainees will complete requirements leading to the PhD degree in laboratories of well-funded faculty that have a strong training track record and diverse research expertise. Research projects will emphasize comparative and translational themes fostered by the CCMTR and trainees will participate in multidisciplinary research efforts. It is envisioned that trainees will bridge research programs and serve as a nidus for new faculty collaborations. The training program was initiated in Fall 2007 with funds for 2 slots committed by North Carolina State University. The program will grow by 2 slots each year, reaching a total of 8 slots in year 4. Six trainee slots are requested and 2 will be supported from university resources. Program requirements include: (1) a capstone course on comparative medicine and translational research; (2) a professional development course that will culminate in submission of a K award proposal; (3) a seminar series on translational research; (4) a course in research ethics; and (5) an annual research symposium. These requirements are in addition to those associated with a student's particular graduate program. This novel training program will build upon the strong commitment and track record of the NC State CVM to train veterinary specialists in research.

描述（由申请人提供）：国家研究委员会记录了国家对受过生物医学研究培训的兽医专家的迫切需求。此外，兽医研究人员在比较和转化研究活动中发挥着关键作用，因为他们自然地连接基础研究和临床研究。为了满足这一培训需求，北卡罗来纳州兽医学院CCMTR （CCMTR）的教师建立了比较医学和转化研究培训计划（CMTRTP）。该培训计划专门针对具有DVM学位并完成专业培训的个人。受训者将在资金充足的实验室完成博士学位的要求，这些实验室拥有强大的培训记录和多样化的研究专长。研究项目将强调CCMTR所倡导的比较和转化主题，受训人员将参与多学科研究工作。预计受训者将成为研究项目的桥梁，并成为新的教员合作的中心。该培训项目于2007年秋季启动，由北卡罗来纳州立大学提供2个名额的资金。该项目每年将增加2个名额，到第四年将达到8个名额。申请6个实习名额，其中2个将由大学资源提供支持。项目要求包括：(1)一门关于比较医学和转化研究的顶级课程；(2)专业发展课程，最终提交K奖提案；(3)翻译研究系列研讨会；(4)研究伦理课程；(5)召开年度学术研讨会。这些要求是在与学生特定研究生课程相关的要求之外的。这个新颖的培训计划将建立在坚定的承诺和北卡罗来纳州CVM的跟踪记录，以培训兽医专家的研究。
