项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The aim of the Veterinary Medical Student Research Training Program (VMSRTP) in the College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) at Texas A&M University (TAMU) is to attract and introduce academically gifted pre-doctoral veterinary students recruited from all US colleges of veterinary medicine into multi-disciplinary, active, productive research laboratories to motivate them toward pursuing hypothesis-driven biomedical research careers as their lifelong ambition. By immersing the pre-doctoral veterinary scholars in research areas that specifically interest them in laboratory environments with nurturing mentors, post-doctoral fellows, graduate students and undergraduate fellows for three months, the students will have the ideal opportunity to learn how science is really performed and why one is so easily captured by the quest and discovery of new knowledge as the basis for improved health and well being. The students selected for this program will be subjected to hand-picked, highly successful career-scientist role models chosen for their skills in research education at the bench level. Cross-fertilization of research concepts from the best laboratories from five TAMU colleges focused on laboratory animal science, laboratory animal medicine, comparative medicine, basic sciences, and comparative pathology will be ensured by weekly expository format seminars. Dedicated weekly formal and informal seminars with outstanding scientists will be provided in a relaxed environment to stimulate scientific creativity among the students and mentors. Special courses for a fuller understanding of the scientific method, how to derive a testable hypothesis, absolute necessity for scientific ethics, applying valid experimental designs, data collection and statistical analyses and scientific writing will provide a rounded exposure to real-time science. Because the CVM has supported an established, productive Summer Veterinary Student Research Fellows program for almost two decades, a strong administrative structure already exists to fully support the national recruiting, selection, implementation and logistical requirements for a high quality research training program for 10 students in YR1, 11 in YR2 and 12/YR through YR5 of the program. The CVM will provide matching funds of $10,000 in YR1, $11,000 in YR2 and $12,000/YR thereafter to further ensure fully adequate resources for a high quality program. Our VMSRTP is squarely aimed at developing pre-doctoral veterinary into R01 level scientists for the future.

描述（由申请人提供）：德克萨斯农工大学 (TAMU) 兽医学院 (CVM) 兽医学生研究培训计划 (VMSRTP) 的目的是吸引和引进从美国所有兽医学院招收的有学术天赋的博士前兽医学生多学科、活跃、富有成效的研究实验室，激励他们将假设驱动的生物医学研究事业作为他们的终生抱负。通过让博士前兽医学者在实验室环境中与培养导师、博士后研究员、研究生和本科生一起沉浸在他们特别感兴趣的研究领域三个月，学生将有理想的机会了解科学是如何真正进行的以及为什么人们如此容易被对新知识的探索和发现所吸引，并将其作为改善健康和福祉的基础。入选该项目的学生将接受精心挑选的、非常成功的职业科学家榜样，这些榜样是根据他们在实验室水平的研究教育技能而选择的。每周的说明性研讨会将确保来自 TAMU 五个学院的最佳实验室的研究理念的交叉融合，这些实验室专注于实验动物科学、实验动物医学、比较医学、基础科学和比较病理学。每周将在轻松的环境中与杰出科学家一起举办专门的正式和非正式研讨会，以激发学生和导师的科学创造力。为更全面地理解科学方法、如何得出可检验的假设、科学伦理的绝对必要性、应用有效的实验设计、数据收集和统计分析以及科学写作的特殊课程，将提供对实时科学的全面接触。由于 CVM 近二十年来一直支持已建立的、富有成效的夏季兽医学生研究员计划，因此已经存在一个强大的管理结构，可以全力支持国家招募、选拔、实施和后勤要求，为 10 名学生提供高质量的研究培训计划。该计划的 YR1、YR2 中的 11 以及 12/YR 至 YR5。 CVM 将在第一年提供 10,000 美元的配套资金，在第二年提供 11,000 美元，此后每年提供 12,000 美元，以进一步确保高质量项目拥有充足的资源。我们的 VMSRTP 的明确目标是将博士前兽医培养成未来的 R01 级科学家。
