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 multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research activitis since they naturally bridge basic and clinical research. To address this training need, faculty in the North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) established the Interdisciplinary Biomedical Research Training Program (IBRTP) for veterinary students in 2009. The objective of this training program is to provide interdisciplinary biomedical research experience specifically targeted to veterinary students with a strong interest in a research career. The training program also serves as a bridge to foster new interdisciplinary research collaborations amongst faculty members. Trainees complete a 3-month research experience in the laboratories of faculty members drawn from nine different disciplines. Trainees are mentored by two faculty members from different disciplines to create and execute an interdisciplinary project. The 29 faculty members participating in this program are well funded and have a strong training track record. The nine disciplines selected are areas of strength at NC State; Clinical Sciences, Cellular and Molecular Biology, Genetics and Genomics, Engineering, Food Safety, Statistics, Pharmacology, Regenerative Medicine, and Toxicology. Research projects emphasize the melding of two disciplines to create a novel approach to a biomedical research problem. Projects combining clinical and basic science disciplines are given priority. Trainees will be veterinary students in their first or second year who are building on prior research experience. The training program started in 2009 with funds committed by NC State University CVM. Four trainee slots funded by the NIH were added in 2010. The number of NIH supported trainee slots grew to 7 in 2012. To date, a total of 22 NIH funded trainees have completed the program. We propose in this renewal application that the number of NIH funded training slots be increased to 10 per year. Program requirements include: (1) a weekly seminar series on topics related to research ethics and scientific and professional development; (2) a weekly journal club discussing interdisciplinary research papers; (3) participation in the NIH-Merial National Veterinary Scholars Symposium and the annual CVM research symposium. These requirements are in addition to those associated with a student's research training experience.

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，兽医研究人员在多学科和跨学科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，北卡罗莱纳州立大学兽医学院（CVM）的教师于2009年为兽医学生建立了跨学科生物医学研究培训计划（IBRTP）。该培训计划的目标是提供跨学科的生物医学研究经验，专门针对对研究事业有浓厚兴趣的兽医学生。该培训项目也是促进教师之间新的跨学科研究合作的桥梁。学员将在来自九个不同学科的教员的实验室完成为期三个月的研究经验。学员由两名来自不同学科的教员指导，创建并执行一个跨学科项目。参与该项目的29名教师资金充足，并且有良好的培训记录。所选择的九个学科是在北卡罗莱纳州的实力领域；临床科学、细胞与分子生物学、遗传学与基因组学、工程学、食品安全、统计学、药理学、再生医学和毒理学。研究项目强调两个学科的融合，以创造一种新的方法来解决生物医学研究问题。临床与基础学科相结合的项目优先考虑。受训人员将是一年级或二年级的兽医学生，他们将以先前的研究经验为基础。该培训项目始于2009年，由北卡罗来纳州立大学CVM承诺提供资金。2010年，由NIH资助的四个实习名额被增加。2012年，NIH支持的实习名额增加到7个。迄今为止，共有22名NIH资助的受训者完成了该计划。在这份更新申请中，我们建议将NIH资助的培训名额增加到每年10个。项目要求包括：(1)每周举办一次与研究伦理、科学和专业发展相关的系列研讨会；(2)每周期刊俱乐部讨论跨学科研究论文；(3)参加NIH-Merial国家兽医学者研讨会和CVM年度研究研讨会。这些要求是除了与学生的研究培训经验相关的要求之外的。
