Comparative Biomedical Sciences Training Program

摘要 这笔资金的总体目标是招募和支持优秀人才的研究培训 毕业兽医。通过这样做，我们将解决由短缺带来的国家需求 拥有当代研究训练的兽医。威斯康星大学麦迪逊兽医学院 医学因其多学科的特点，能够很好地满足这一需求 研究性培训计划(比较生物医学博士计划) 传染病和免疫学以及细胞和分子调控方面的优势 生理过程；2)优秀的23名训练员花名册，他们总共有超过 18,000,000美元的外部资金和对研究培训的承诺；3)证明有能力 招募有才华的兽医科学家，并致力于研究和天赋；4)校园 促进协作研究和研究生培训的文化；5)与 医学与公共卫生学院的翻译研究培训机会；6)长期 为兽医提供研究培训的传统；7)卓越的设施和尖端技术 支持服务；8)强大的研究道德和专业技能课程；9)承诺 招收少数族裔学生。 我们要求为四名实习生提供为期5年的资金。学员将获得最多3年的支持 几年，在此期间，他们将同时满足比较 生物医学博士项目或其他优秀的校园研究生项目之一。 该培训计划的具体目标是：1)为兽医提供当代 需要解决问题和实验室技能，以满足国家在翻译方面的需求 生物医学研究；以及2)增加作为指导的兽医数量 考虑从事研究工作的兽医专业学生。子目标包括：1) 提供优秀的研究道德、负责任的研究行为和专业培训 为学员在研究领域的成功职业定位的技能；2)增加 未被充分代表的少数族裔学生在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校接受研究培训；3)吸引 兽医学生在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校攻读DVM并参加我们的 研究培训项目组合(梅里亚，T35，博士后T32)。

Summary The overall goal of this funding is to recruit and support the research training of outstanding graduate veterinarians. By so doing we will address the national need posed by the shortage of veterinarians with contemporary research training. The UW-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine is well positioned to address this need as a result of its: 1) multidisciplinary research training program (Comparative Biomedical Sciences PhD program) with major strengths in Infectious Disease & Immunology, and Cellular & Molecular Regulation of Physiological Processes; 2) outstanding roster of 23 Trainers who in aggregate have more than $18,000,000 in extramural funding and a commitment to research training; 3) proven ability to recruit talented veterinarian scientists with a commitment and talent for research; 4) campus culture that fosters collaborative research and graduate student training; 5) integration with translational research training opportunities in the School of Medicine and Public health; 6) long tradition of providing research training to veterinarians; 7) outstanding facilities and cutting edge support services; 8) strong research ethics and professional skills course ; and 9) commitment to minority student recruitment. We request funds for four Trainees for a 5 year period. Trainees will be supported for up to 3 years, during which time they will concurrently fulfill the requirements of the Comparative Biomedical Sciences PhD Program or one of the other excellent campus graduate programs. The Specific Aims of the training program are: 1) Provide veterinarians with contemporary problem solving and laboratory skills required to address national needs in translational biomedical research; and 2) Increase the number of veterinarians who serve as mentors for veterinary medical students considering a career in research. Subsidiary goals include: 1) Provide excellent training in research ethics, responsible conduct of research, and professional skills to position trainees for successful careers in research; 2) Increase the number of underrepresented minority students pursuing research training at UW-Madison; 3) Attract veterinary medical students to pursue the DVM at the UW-Madison and participate in our portfolio of research training programs (Merial, T35, Postdoctoral T32).
