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.

项目概要 兽医在兽医学方面广泛的比较教育的帮助下，使 对生物医学发现和公共卫生的贡献。然而，数量上确实存在短缺 从事生物医学研究的兽医。康奈尔大学兽医研究员计划 (VIP) 旨在通过为兽医学生提供全日制研究实验室经验来改善这种情况 兽医学校第一年或第二年结束后的夏季为期 10 周的时间。该计划 此外还提供了接触新兴研究发展和新技术、补充技能的机会 书面和口头科学交流以及职业指导。兽医调查员计划有五个 主要目标： i) 为 DVM 学生提供严格的、以假设为导向的指导性研究经验 以及广泛接触研究技术； ii) 通过培训促进负责任的研究行为 道德和原则，例如严谨性和可重复性； iii) 提高 DVM 的科学沟通技巧 学生实习生，包括摘要写作、海报展示和口头展示； iv) 让学生接触 尖端生物医学领域以及通过实验室经验和教师主导的研讨会取得的最新突破； v) 展示学生如何通过先进的方法将研究融入他们的 DVM 后职业生涯 研究培训和/或将研究整合到各种职业道路中，例如临床实践、公共 健康、学术界等。兽医调查员计划即将进入第 14 个年头。美国国立卫生研究院 T35 过去 10 年的资金为 79 名参与者提供了支持，并出版了经过同行评审的出版物 和未来的研究经费，以及重大的职业影响。康奈尔大学录取流程 大学兽医学院优先考虑那些对研究感兴趣的人，从而 为兽医调查员计划提供极具竞争力的申请池。这 该计划由 44 名敬业协作的教员培训师组成，其中包括大约同等数量的 男性和女性，以及代表所有教授级别的教师。教职培训师来自五位学术界 兽医学院的各系，并拥有资金雄厚、富有成效的实验室 专注于以下领域： 癌症；细胞和有机体代谢；发育生物学与 生殖;基因组生物学；感染生物学；以及再生医学和干细胞。通过提供十 感兴趣的学生每年都有机会利用广泛的一流师资和资源 在康奈尔大学，兽医调查员计划致力于让早期兽医实习生参与 高影响力的生物医学研究，并激励他们从事包括严格的科学探究在内的职业。
