 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this program is to provide a 12 week mentored research experience for veterinary students at the University of Wisconsin. The 2014 NIH Physician-Scientist Workforce Working Group Report indicated a lack of critical mass among non-MD scientific clinicians. As traditional veterinary curriculum lacks research- related training, this summer research exposure experience is an essential way to expose DVM students to both the research process but also to encourage them to consider research-oriented careers. This program will also help recruit veterinary medical students with specific interest in this program to pursue the DVM at the University of Wisconsin, increase the number of minority students pursuing research training at the University of Wisconsin, inform veterinary medical students of careers in research, and provide participating students with an introduction to ethics, responsible conduct of research, and skills for successful careers in research. The over-arching objective of this program is to introduce veterinary medical students to research and provide them with at least a working knowledge of how to identify a problem of significance to the health and welfare of animals and/or humans, develop a hypothesis to test the question selected, identify and validate appropriate techniques to pursue the research, and analyze and report (orally and in writing) data. Trainees participate in regularly scheduled laboratory meetings and weekly seminars conducted specifically for students in the 12 week summer program. Trainees will either present the results of their research at the summer veterinary research scholars' symposium (typically the NIH-Merial Veterinary Scholars Program Symposium held annually in August) or present their research at seminars or symposiums held at the University Of Wisconsin School Of Veterinary Medicine. The University of Wisconsin in general, and the School of Veterinary Medicine in particular, has an ideal environment to support short-term research training of veterinary students. We anticipate that the proposed program will integrate smoothly with current training programs to provide a continuum of support for research training of veterinary students in Wisconsin.

 描述（由申请人提供）：该计划的目的是为威斯康星大学的兽医学生提供为期 12 周的指导研究经验。 2014 年 NIH 医师科学家劳动力工作组报告表明，非医学博士科学临床医生缺乏足够的数量。由于传统兽医课程缺乏与研究相关的培训，今年夏季的研究接触体验是让 DVM 学生接触研究过程并鼓励他们考虑以研究为导向的职业的重要方式。该计划还将帮助招募对该计划有特定兴趣的兽医学生在威斯康星大学攻读兽医学博士，增加在威斯康星大学接受研究培训的少数族裔学生的数量，向兽医学生介绍研究职业，并为参与的学生提供伦理学介绍， 负责任的研究行为以及成功从事研究事业的技能。该计划的总体目标是向兽医医学生介绍研究，并至少为他们提供如何识别对动物和/或人类健康和福利具有重要意义的问题的实用知识，提出假设来测试所选问题，确定和验证进行研究的适当技术，以及分析和报告（口头和书面）数据。学员参加为期 12 周的暑期项目中专门为学生举办的定期实验室会议和每周研讨会。学员将在夏季兽医研究学者研讨会（通常是每年八月举行的 NIH-Merial 兽医学者计划研讨会）上展示他们的研究成果，或者在威斯康星大学兽医学院举办的研讨会或座谈会上展示他们的研究成果。威斯康星大学，特别是兽医学院，拥有支持兽医学生短期研究培训的理想环境。我们预计拟议的计划将与当前的培训计划顺利整合，为威斯康星州兽医学生的研究培训提供持续的支持。
