Comparative Biomedical Scientist Training Program

该项目用于协调培训和大学- nih接口。该项目为学员提供适合合作大学研究生学分的分子和比较病理学教育课程内容。分子病理学股的工作人员在培训和指导受训者方面负有重大责任。学员在分子病理学单元内进行论文前研究，他们获得大学研究生课程学分。接受研究培训的兽医病理学家将病理学纳入校内研究的范围。兽医病理学家与实验室的整合实现了病理学家-研究者垂直整合的培训计划愿景，从发现到研究翻译，作为研究团队成员合作。培训联盟内的教育基础设施包括大学合作，并建立在团队科学的跨学科方向上。2008财政年度项目和实习生的成就包括：美国第五兽医学院加入印第安纳州西拉斐特普渡大学的培训合作伙伴关系。招募了2名兽医开始研究生合作计划培训-一名在北卡罗来纳州罗利的北卡罗莱纳州立大学，一名在密歇根州东兰辛的密歇根州立大学。毕业于马里兰大学（College Park， MD）和密歇根州立大学（East Lansing， MI）的两名比较生物医学博士。学生博士论文题目为：开发与人类急性白血病相关的t(10;11) （p13; q14）染色体易位的小鼠模型马里兰大学。BMI1与HRAS合作促进乳腺肿瘤的发生和转移。项目学员撰写或合作撰写了5篇同行评议的科学期刊文章2篇研究，1篇评论和2篇临床文章，发表在包括：癌症细胞，癌症研究，白血病和兽医病理学。国家兽医学者研讨会青年研究者奖入围者，美国国立卫生研究院，2007年。5. 美国国立卫生研究院-霍华德休斯医学研究所学者计划接受兽医专业学生申请。2名学员顺利通过美国兽医病理学学会国家专业委员会认证考试。七名兽医学生在美国国立卫生研究院合作校内实验室接受暑期实习或见习培训。

The project serves to coordinate the training and the university-NIH interface. The project provides trainees with molecular and comparative pathology educational curricular content suitable for graduate credit at partnership universities. Staff within the Molecular Pathology Unit have a significant responsibility in training and mentoring trainees. Trainees undertake pre-dissertation research within the molecular pathology unit for which they receive university graduate course credit. Veterinary pathologists undertaking research training integrate pathology into the range of intramural research. Integration of the veterinary pathologist into the laboratory results in fulfillment of the training programs vision of vertically integrated pathologist-investigator, working in partnership as research team member from discovery to research translation. The educational infrastructure within the training consortium includes university collaboration and builds upon an interdisciplinary orientation to team science. Program and trainee accomplishments for fiscal year 2008 include: Accomplishments 1. Addition of 5th US college of veterinary medicine to the training partnership Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana. 2. Recruited 2 veterinarians to initiate Graduate Partnership Program training - one at North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC and one at Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI. 3. Graduated 2 D.V.M. / Ph.D. Comparative Biomedical Scientists from the program one at University of Maryland, College Park, MD and one at Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI.
