Summer Veterinary Student Research Program (SVSRP)

兽医学生在比较医学方面拥有独特的资格，这种培训是兽医学的资源 动物模型研究。然而，大多数学生并不从事研究职业，主要是因为 缺乏接触生物医学研究。这个针对我们夏季的竞争性续订提案 弗吉尼亚-马里兰兽医学院兽医学生研究计划 (SVSRP) 医学（VMCVM）将培训兽医学生的研究技能，并鼓励他们 从事研究事业。我们将从全美所有 30 所经认可的兽医学校招募人员 国家，特别是来自塔斯基吉大学，其目的是招募代表性不足的人 少数民族。未来五年内每年将招募6名新的DVM寻求学者 该计划的资助期限。 SVSRP 将为学生提供研究领域的经验 将学生的兴趣与传染病、免疫学和动物模型的研究结合起来 炎症和脊椎动物遗传学。导师将由咨询和选拔委派 根据申请人的兴趣向申请人提出委员会。学生将接受写作训练 研究计划和科学论文、生物统计学和实验设计、报告和 演示，定量信息的视觉显示。他们的培训还将包括人文关怀 动物模型的使用以及研究的道德行为，由具有专业知识的演讲者领导 人体实验、贝尔蒙特报告、动物福利法、科学的完整性和严谨性以及 再现性。该项目的一个独特之处是参观美国国立卫生研究院 (NIH)、美国农业部 (USDA) 和其他机构 华盛顿特区更好地了解兽医的研究职业机会并学习如何 公共政策受到研究的影响。完成定向并撰写研究计划后， 学生将在导师的实验室里度过九周的时间进行研究。为了维持兴趣 生物医学研究，我们将与来自成功的 DVM 研究人员每周组织一次会议 学术界、政府或生物技术行业。 VMCVM 已成功举办夏季活动 过去的研究培训计划，最终培训了 143 名生物医学 DVM 学生 自 1995 年以来一直在进行研究。自 2006 年实施 T35 SVSRP 以来，我们基本上完成了所有研究 这是我们在过去 10 年里最初提出的。更新此 SVSRP 将使 VMCVM 能够 继续为 DVM 学生提供生物医学研究的机会和培训，并鼓励 追求以研究为基础的职业生涯，成为世界一流的科学家。

Veterinary students are uniquely qualified in comparative medicine, a training that is a resource in animal model research. Yet, a majority of students do not pursue research careers, principally because of lack of exposure to biomedical research. This competing renewal proposal for our Summer Veterinary Student Research Program (SVSRP) at the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine (VMCVM) will train veterinary medicine students in research skills and encourage them to pursue a research career. We will recruit from all 30 accredited veterinary medical schools in the nation, particularly from Tuskegee University with the objective of recruiting underrepresented minorities. A total of 6 new DVM-seeking scholars will be recruited each year during the next five year funding period of the program. SVSRP will provide students with experience in areas of research that couple student interests with research in animal models of infectious disease, immunology and inflammation and vertebrate genetics. Mentors will be assigned by the Advisory and Selection Committee to applicants based on applicant interests. Students will receive training in the writing of research proposals and scientific papers, biostatistics and experimental design, reports and presentations, visual display of quantitative information. Their training will also include humane care and use of animal models and the ethical conduct of research as led by speakers with expertise in human experimentation, the Belmont Report, the Animal Welfare Act, scientific integrity and rigor and reproducibility. A unique feature of this program will be a visit to the NIH, USDA, and other agencies in Washington, DC to better understand research career opportunities for veterinarians and to learn how public policy is influenced by research. After completing orientation and writing a research proposal, students will spend nine weeks in the mentor's laboratory doing research. To sustain interest in biomedical research, we will organize a weekly meeting with successful DVM researchers from academia, government, or biotech industries. VMCVM has successfully administered summer research training programs in the past, culminating in training 143 DVM students in biomedical research since 1995. Since administering this T35 SVSRP in 2006, we have completed essentially all that we originally proposed during the last 10 years. Renewal of this SVSRP will enable the VMCVM to continue providing opportunities and training to DVM students in biomedical research and encourage pursuit of a research-based career as world-class scientists.
