PROJECT SUMMARY Veterinarians, aided by their wide-ranging and comparative education in veterinary medicine, make essential contributions to biomedical discovery and public health. Yet, there is a well established shortage in the number of veterinarians engaged in biomedical research. The Cornell University Veterinary Investigator Program (VIP) seeks to improve this situation by providing full-time research laboratory experiences to veterinary students for a 10-week period during the summer after their first or second year of veterinary school. The Program additionally provides exposure to emerging research developments and new techniques, complementary skills in written and oral science communication, and career guidance. The Veterinary Investigator Program has five primary objectives: i) Provide DVM students with rigorous, hypothesis-driven mentored research experiences and broad exposure to research techniques; ii) Promote the responsible conduct of research through training in ethics and principles such as rigor and reproducibility; iii) Advance the science communication skills of DVM student trainees, including abstract writing, poster presentation, and oral presentation; iv) Expose students to cutting-edge biomedical areas and recent breakthroughs via lab-based experiences and faculty-led workshops; and v) Demonstrate how students can incorporate research into their post-DVM careers through advanced research training and/or by integrating research into a variety career pathways such as clinical practice, public health, and academia, among others. The Veterinary Investigator Program is entering its 14th year. NIH T35 funding for the previous 10 years has provided support for 79 participants, leading to peer-reviewed publications and future research funding, as well as significant career impacts. The admissions process at the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine gives preference to those who express an interest in research, thereby contributing to an exceptionally competitive application pool for the Veterinary Investigator Program. The Program consists of 44 dedicated and collaborative faculty trainers, including approximately equal numbers of men and women, and faculty representing all Professorial ranks. The faculty trainers hail from the five academic Departments of the College of Veterinary Medicine, and have well funded and productive laboratories that specialize in the following areas: Cancer; Cellular & Organismal Metabolism; Developmental Biology & Reproduction; Genome Biology; Infection Biology; and Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cells. By providing ten interested students per year an opportunity to avail themselves of the wide range of superb faculty and resources at Cornell University, the Veterinary Investigator Program strives to engage early stage veterinary trainees in high impact biomedical research and to motivate them to pursue a career that includes rigorous scientific inquiry.

项目摘要 兽医，在兽医学的广泛和比较教育的帮助下， 对生物医学发现和公共卫生的贡献。然而，这方面的人数却明显不足， 从事生物医学研究的兽医。康奈尔大学兽医研究者计划（VIP） 旨在通过为兽医学生提供全职研究实验室经验来改善这种情况， 在兽医学校第一或第二年的夏天，有10周的时间。程序 此外，还提供了接触新兴的研究发展和新技术，补充技能 在书面和口头科学交流和职业指导。兽医研究员计划有五个 主要目标：i）为DVM学生提供严格的，假设驱动的指导研究经验 ㈡通过以下方面的培训促进负责任地进行研究： 伦理和原则，如严谨性和可重复性; iii）提高DVM的科学交流技能 学生实习生，包括摘要写作，海报展示和口头陈述; iv）让学生接触 尖端的生物医学领域和最近的突破，通过实验室为基础的经验和教师领导的研讨会; 以及v）展示学生如何通过高级课程将研究纳入他们的DVM后职业生涯 研究培训和/或通过将研究纳入各种职业途径，如临床实践，公共 健康，学术，等等。兽医研究员计划正在进入第14个年头。NIH T35 过去10年的资助为79名参与者提供了支持，导致同行审查的出版物 未来的研究资金，以及重大的职业影响。康奈尔大学的录取程序 大学兽医学院优先考虑那些对研究感兴趣的人， 为兽医研究者计划提供极具竞争力的申请库。的 该计划由44名专门和协作的教师培训师组成，其中包括大约相同数量的 男性和女性，以及代表所有教授级别的教师。教师培训师来自五个学术 兽医学院的部门，并拥有资金充足和生产性的实验室， 专注于以下领域：癌症;细胞和有机体代谢;发育生物学和 生殖;基因组生物学;感染生物学;和再生医学和干细胞。通过提供10个 感兴趣的学生每年有机会利用一流的教师和资源的广泛范围 在康奈尔大学，兽医研究员计划致力于让早期兽医学员参与， 高影响力的生物医学研究，并激励他们追求的职业生涯，其中包括严格的科学探究。
