ABSTRACT The objective of this professional student short-term research training grant is to provide predoctoral training opportunities to 14 veterinary students annually who have completed their first or second year with immersive experiential learning by carrying out mentored biomedical research, enriched by seminars and events that are designed to inspire them for careers combining their medical training and research. The goal of the program is to capture the enthusiasm and imaginations of DVM students early in their training to prime their appreciation and capacity for basic and translational research. Students will be engaged in hypothesis- driven discovery and problem-solving research in a high-quality laboratory setting for 12 weeks during the summer. Only the most outstanding researchers/mentors from have been included as trainees in the proposed research training program. Participating faculty have been grouped into the following areas of research excellence: 1) Antimicrobial Resistance and Microbial Pathogenesis, 2) Vector Borne Diseases and Disease Ecology, 3) Immunity and Immune Modulation 4) Airway Biology and Disese 5) Comparative Toxicology and 5) Animal Models, Sponaneous Diseases in Animals and Translational Studies, serving as convergent foci. A week long orientation program, and special events have been designed to guide the students for success in this experiential learning opportunity. Training in responsible conduct of research and data reproducibility and reliability are integral parts of the program with special sessions and seminars reinforcing these principles. Recruitment efforts planned are directed not only to DVM students in our college, but to veterinary students from other U.S. colleges of veterinary medicine and are designed to ensure that students underrepresented in the biomedical sciences have access to this research experience. All students participating in the program are required to present their research results at the annual College of Veterinary Medicine Phi Zeta Research Day, and encouraged to present at the National Veterinary Scholars Symposium and other national professional meetings, and to publish their work with their mentors, as appropriate. Increasing our human capital in veterinary scientists is critical to the protection of public health and advancement of science that benefits animals and humans, both as individuals and as populations. Summer research experiences provide a critical step into the research enterprise to the veterinary students early in their training and foster interest and develop aptitude for further training in the biomedical sciences, serving as a steping stone for research intensive careers as biomedical scientists.

摘要 这项专业学生短期研究培训补助金的目的是提供博士前培训 机会，每年14兽医学生谁已经完成了他们的第一年或第二年， 沉浸式体验式学习，通过开展有指导的生物医学研究，通过研讨会和 旨在激励他们将医学培训和研究相结合的职业生涯的活动。目标 该计划的目的是抓住DVM学生的热情和想象力，在他们的培训早期， 他们的欣赏和基础和转化研究的能力。学生将参与假设- 在高质量的实验室环境中进行为期12周的探索和解决问题的研究， 夏天只有最杰出的研究人员/导师才被列为 研究培训计划。参与的教师已分为以下领域 卓越研究：1）抗菌素耐药性和微生物发病机制，2）媒介传播疾病 3）免疫和免疫调节4）气道生物学和疾病5）比较 毒理学和5）动物模型，动物自发性疾病和转化研究，作为 会聚焦点一个为期一周的迎新计划，和特殊的活动已经设计，以指导 学生在这个体验式学习的机会取得成功。负责任地开展研究的培训 数据的可重复性和可靠性是特别会议计划的组成部分， 加强这些原则的研讨会。计划中的招聘工作不仅针对 我们的大学，但兽医学生从其他美国兽医学院，旨在 确保在生物医学科学中代表性不足的学生能够获得这种研究经验。所有 参加该计划的学生必须在每年的学院展示他们的研究成果。 兽医Phi Zeta研究日，并鼓励出席国家兽医学者 研讨会和其他国家专业会议，并与其导师一起出版其工作， 适当增加兽医科学家的人力资本对保护公共卫生至关重要， 科学的进步有利于动物和人类，无论是作为个人还是作为群体。 暑期研究经验为兽医学生进入研究企业提供了关键的一步 在他们的培训早期，培养他们的兴趣和发展能力， 科学，作为一个踏脚石研究密集型职业生涯作为生物医学科学家。
