DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Multiple studies, workshops, round table discussions and editorials published during the last decade-including a National Academies of Sciences report and a conference coordinated between NIH and the American Association of Veterinary Medical Colleges (AAVMC)-have determined that an inadequate number of veterinarians receive training in biomedical research and public health. Specific areas of need include translational medical research, laboratory- animal medicine, and academic medicine. In concert with this recognized need, Colorado State University provides comparative medicine training for graduate veterinarians via a training program recognized by ACLAM in 2003 with the goal of preparing participants to become competent laboratory animal veterinarians capable of performing collaborative research and research support activities. The program has enrolled seven students to date and rapidly gained national recognition by recruiting well-qualified candidates that have performed exceptionally well in clinical, research, and service endeavors. Major strengths of the program include: 1. Active research programs in many disciplines in the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences with >$67M in extramural funding in FY10 and ranking of #1 among colleges of veterinary medicine in the US; 2. A program director and faculty members committed to the success in the program and active in mentorship and training activities in didactic, clinical, and research realms; 3. Long-standing successful combined veterinary residency/graduate training in the Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Pathology and an academically oriented Division of Laboratory Animal Resources; and 4. An established relationship for provision of externship experiences to enhance experiential training. The specific aim of this proposal is to increase the pool of highly trained laboratory animal medicine veterinarians to address the Nation's biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs in the NCRR mission areas. Objectives include training three additional veterinarians in laboratory animal/comparative medicine during the grant period using methodologies that have contributed to programmatic success to date. Minority recruitment and outcomes assessment will be developed as a component of this award to inform future training and increase opportunities for under-represented individuals.

描述（由申请人提供）：在过去十年中，多项研究、研讨会、圆桌讨论和发表的社论——包括美国国家科学院的一份报告和美国国立卫生研究院和美国兽医学院协会（AAVMC）协调的一次会议——已经确定，接受生物医学研究和公共卫生培训的兽医数量不足。具体需求领域包括转化医学研究、实验动物医学和学术医学。为了满足这一公认的需求，科罗拉多州立大学通过ACLAM于2003年认可的培训计划，为研究生兽医提供比较医学培训，目标是培养参与者成为能够进行合作研究和研究支持活动的合格实验动物兽医。到目前为止，该项目已经招收了7名学生，并通过招募在临床、研究和服务方面表现出色的合格候选人，迅速获得了全国的认可。该项目的主要优势包括：1。动物医学和生物医学学院在多个学科的活跃研究项目，2010财年的校外资金为6700万美元，在美国兽医学院中排名第一；2. 项目主管和教职员工致力于项目的成功，并积极参与教学、临床和研究领域的指导和培训活动；3. 在微生物学，免疫学和病理学部门以及以学术为导向的实验动物资源部门进行了长期成功的兽医住院医师/研究生培训；和4。建立提供实习经验的关系，以加强经验培训。该提案的具体目的是增加训练有素的实验动物医学兽医的数量，以满足国家生物医学、行为和临床研究在NCRR任务领域的需求。目标包括在赠款期间使用迄今为止有助于项目成功的方法再培训三名实验动物/比较医学兽医。少数族裔的招聘和结果评估将作为该奖项的一个组成部分，为未来的培训提供信息，并为代表性不足的个人增加机会。
