DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of the training program outlined in this renewal application is to provide short-term intensive research experiences to professional veterinary medical students. The short-term goal is to stimulate an interest in the pursuit of hypothesis-based research that examines mechanisms, treatment, and prevention of disease. The long-term goal is to increase the number of veterinary students that embrace research as part of their career, with a focus that ranges from basic science/discovery to translational and epidemiological studies. These individuals fill a unique niche in the biomedical community, combining a comparative medical education with investigatory skills that are essential to advancing human and animal health. The program is based upon a research intensive summer experience that is part of a larger Summer Research Program. First- and second- year veterinary students select mentors from graduate faculty of the College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM), the Ohio State University (OSU). These faculty include individuals with primary appointments in the Colleges of Veterinary Medicine, Medicine and Pharmacy, assuring broad exposure of students to all facets of the health sciences community. Projects are developed in collaboration between student and mentor, assuring that the project reflects student interests and ideas. Development of the proposal and preliminary training activities occur prior to summer, and presentation and publication of research results are emphasized in the period following summer. The latter includes an end-of-summer research symposium, at which students make oral presentations of research results, and poster/platform presentations at the CVM Research Day the following spring. Accordingly, students are selected from within the OSU CVM community. The most meritorious projects are now selected based upon proposals submitted to and ranked by the CVM Council for Research, with final award decisions made by the Executive Steering Committee of the Summer Research Program. This change has resulted in increased quality of students and projects, with now over 50 applications for 10 T35 positions. Recruitment of new faculty mentors now provides international research opportunities, particularly in the field of epidemiology, and we have achieved a 3:1 faculty mentor: student ratio, assuring a large number of training options that will assure a fit with student interests. W have implemented a mechanism for student feedback and as a result, summer seminars are increasingly focused on career development. Subsequent pursuit of graduate education is used as an indicator of program success. Of the 40 T35 trainees that have completed the program in the current funding interval, 25% are engaged in graduate education (with 45% still in veterinary school).

描述（由申请人提供）：本更新申请中概述的培训计划的目的是为专业兽医学生提供短期强化研究经验。短期目标是激发人们对基于假设的研究的兴趣，这些研究检查了疾病的机制，治疗和预防。长期目标是增加接受研究作为其职业生涯的一部分的兽医学生的数量，重点是从基础科学/发现到转化和流行病学研究。这些人填补了生物医学界的独特利基，将比较医学教育与对促进人类和动物健康至关重要的解释技能相结合。该计划是基于一个研究密集的夏季经验，是一个更大的夏季研究计划的一部分。第一年和第二年的兽医学生从俄亥俄州州立大学（OSU）兽医学院（CVM）的研究生教师中选择导师。这些教师包括在兽医，医学和药学学院的主要任命个人，确保学生广泛接触健康科学界的各个方面。项目是在学生和导师之间的合作开发，确保项目反映学生的兴趣和想法。在夏季之前制定提案和开展初步培训活动，夏季之后着重介绍和发表研究成果。后者包括一个夏季研究研讨会结束时，学生在研究成果的口头介绍，并在CVM研究日海报/平台演示次年春天。因此，学生是从OSU CVM社区内选择的。最有价值的项目是根据提交给CVM理事会的研究建议和排名选出的，最终的奖项由夏季研究计划的执行指导委员会决定。这一变化提高了学生和项目的质量，现在有超过50个申请10个T35职位。招聘新的教师导师现在提供了国际研究的机会，特别是在流行病学领域，我们已经实现了3：1教师导师：学生的比例，确保大量的培训选择，这将确保适合学生的兴趣。我们已经实施了一个学生反馈机制，因此，夏季研讨会越来越关注职业发展。研究生教育的后续追求被用作计划成功的指标。在当前资助期间完成该计划的40名T35受训人员中，25%从事研究生教育（45%仍在兽医学校）。
