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 comparative and translational research activities since they naturally bridge basic and clinical research. To address this training need, faculty in the CCMTR (CCMTR) at the College of Veterinary Medicine, NC State have established the Comparative Medicine and Translational Research Training Program (CMTRTP). This training program specifically target individuals with the DVM degree who have completed specialty training. Trainees will complete requirements leading to the PhD degree in laboratories of well-funded faculty that have a strong training track record and diverse research expertise. Research projects will emphasize comparative and translational themes fostered by the CCMTR and trainees will participate in multidisciplinary research efforts. It is envisioned that trainees will bridge research programs and serve as a nidus for new faculty collaborations. The training program was initiated in Fall 2007 with funds for 2 slots committed by North Carolina State University. The program will grow by 2 slots each year, reaching a total of 8 slots in year 4. Six trainee slots are requested and 2 will be supported from university resources. Program requirements include: (1) a capstone course on comparative medicine and translational research; (2) a professional development course that will culminate in submission of a K award proposal; (3) a seminar series on translational research; (4) a course in research ethics; and (5) an annual research symposium. These requirements are in addition to those associated with a student's particular graduate program. This novel training program will build upon the strong commitment and track record of the NC State CVM to train veterinary specialists in research.

描述(由申请者提供)：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，兽医研究人员在比较和翻译研究活动中发挥着关键作用，因为他们天生就是基础研究和临床研究的桥梁。为了满足这一培训需求，北卡罗来纳州兽医学院CCMTR(CCMTR)的教职员工建立了比较医学和转化研究培训计划(CMTRTP)。本培训计划专门针对已完成专业培训的具有DVM学位的个人。受训者将在资金充足、拥有良好培训记录和多样化研究专业知识的实验室完成获得博士学位的要求。研究项目将强调CCMTR培养的比较和翻译主题，受训人员将参与多学科研究工作。据设想，受训者将在研究项目之间架起桥梁，并成为新教师合作的空白。该培训计划于2007年秋季启动，资金用于北卡罗来纳州立大学承诺的2个名额。该计划每年将增加2个名额，到第4年将达到8个名额。申请6个实习生名额，2个将得到大学资源的支持。课程要求包括：(1)一门关于比较医学和转化研究的顶峰课程；(2)一门职业发展课程，最终将提交一份K奖提案；(3)一系列转化研究研讨会；(4)一门研究伦理课程；(5)一次年度研究研讨会。这些要求是对学生特定研究生课程要求的补充。这一新颖的培训计划将建立在北卡罗来纳州CVM在培训研究方面的兽医专家方面的坚定承诺和往绩的基础上。
