DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Research Animal Resources at the Johns Hopkins University proposes to expand its existing laboratory animal medicine (LAM) veterinarian education program to include an additional three veterinarians over a period of five years, funded through this R25 grant mechanism. Participants will receive didactic course work; hands-on clinical work involving more than 15 laboratory animal species; diagnostic pathology training on those species; and research training and experience resulting in at least one first-author publication. Participants will be exposed to all facets of biomedical research animal resource management including facility design and operation; institutional animal care and use committee oversight and pertinent guidelines and regulations. Participants will also work with principal investigators and research teams to provide advice on appropriate animal care and use, and to provide state of the art medical and surgical care to the animals used in research. Our program is certified by the American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM) and our trainees are expected to succeed in the ACLAM certifying examination as they develop careers as LAM veterinarians that collaborate in and support biomedical/translational research. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed Laboratory Animal Medicine Education Program consisting of didactic courses, hands-on practical experience and research training, will prepare three veterinarians over five years to become integral members of biomedical research programs directed toward the study of human health and disease. These veterinarians will be eligible for board certification by the American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine, and will capable of joining animal research resource programs; provide oversight and expertise for maintaining laboratory animal health; insure institutional compliance with pertinent guidelines and regulations; and collaborate or perform animal based research.

描述(由申请者提供)：约翰霍普金斯大学的研究动物资源计划建议扩大其现有的实验动物医学(LAM)兽医教育计划，在五年内增加三名兽医，资金来自R25拨款机制。参与者将接受教学课程工作；涉及15个以上实验动物物种的动手临床工作；关于这些物种的诊断病理学培训；以及研究培训和经验，从而至少出版一本第一作者著作。参与者将接触到生物医学研究动物资源管理的方方面面，包括设施设计和操作；机构动物护理和使用委员会的监督以及相关的指南和法规。参与者还将与主要研究人员和研究团队合作，就适当的动物护理和使用提供建议，并为研究中使用的动物提供最先进的医疗和外科护理。我们的项目获得了美国实验动物医学院(ACLAM)的认证，我们的学员有望在ACLAM认证考试中取得成功，因为他们将成为合作并支持生物医学/翻译研究的LAM兽医。 公共卫生相关性：拟议的实验动物医学教育计划由教学课程、实践经验和研究培训组成，将在五年内培养三名兽医，使其成为针对人类健康和疾病研究的生物医学研究计划的重要成员。这些兽医将有资格获得美国实验动物医学院的董事会认证，并将能够加入动物研究资源计划；提供维持实验动物健康的监督和专业知识；确保机构遵守相关指南和规定；以及合作或执行基于动物的研究。
