项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The aim of the Georgia Veterinary Scholar Summer Research Program (GVSP) at the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) is to introduce academically talented veterinary students to cutting edge research with mentors capable of inspiring them toward careers in biomedical research. While the focus of basic research training moves to cellular and sub cellular levels, a specific effort is necessary to also encourage biomedical scientists with broad medical training. In particular, the expansion of biotechnology frontiers such as animal cloning, transgenics and gene targeting require veterinarians capable of evaluating whole animal health issues while understanding the technologies. Veterinarians are also ideally trained to recognize spontaneous animal models, and are needed in the disciplines of public health and food safety. However, veterinary students are often not aware of the career possibilities in these areas of need. The GVSP has a 12 year record of introducing over 100 veterinary students to research; the programmatic culture" and administrative structure are already in place. Many qualified students have to date been denied an opportunity to participate, prompting this proposal to increase the number of trainees by 50%. During the12 week program, students are welcomed into the discipline and camaraderie of the scientific community through seminars on the ethics and conduct of research, animal welfare, communication skills, an informal "Summer Science" journal club at the homes of faculty, teambuilding and leadership exercises, and scientific and recreational field trips. The central experience is a fulltime research project on a topic and with a mentor of the student's choosing, culminating in written and oral presentations at the university and national level. The PI is director of the CVM's DVM/PhD program, and is supported by 20 mentors from 5 colleges in critical comparative research areas including neuroscience, animal genomics and stem cell research, toxicology, environmental science, public health and food safety, endocrinology, diabetes and obesity, basic and comparative pharmacology, infectious diseases and parasitology. The CVM will provide annual funds from state and corporate sources to ensure continuation of programmatic quality. The GVSP is designed to capture the interest of future veterinarians at a formative time in order for them to develop into independent investigators of burgeoning medical problems.

描述（由申请人提供）：佐治亚大学兽医学院 (CVM) 的佐治亚兽医学者夏季研究计划 (GVSP) 的目的是向有学术才华的兽医学生介绍前沿研究，并由能够激励他们走向未来的导师生物医学研究的职业。虽然基础研究培训的重点转向细胞和亚细胞水平，但还需要做出具体努力来鼓励生物医学科学家接受广泛的医学培训。特别是，动物克隆、转基因和基因靶向等生物技术前沿的扩展要求兽医能够在了解这些技术的同时评估整个动物健康问题。兽医也接受过识别自发动物模型的理想培训，并且是公共卫生和食品安全学科所需要的。然而，兽医专业的学生往往不知道这些领域的职业可能性。这 GVSP 拥有 12 年引进 100 多名兽医学生进行研究的记录；程序化的文化”和管理结构已经就位。迄今为止，许多合格的学生被剥夺了参与机会，促使这项提议将受训人员数量增加 50%。在为期 12 周的计划中，欢迎学生加入到纪律和友谊中。通过有关伦理和研究行为、动物福利、沟通技巧的研讨会、在教师家中举办的非正式“夏季科学”期刊俱乐部、团队建设和领导力练习以及科学和娱乐实地考察，与科学界进行交流。全职研究PI 是 CVM 的 DVM/PhD 项目主任，并得到来自 5 所学院的 20 名批判性比较导师的支持。研究领域包括神经科学、动物基因组学和干细胞研究、毒理学、环境科学、公共卫生和食品安全、内分泌学、糖尿病和肥胖症、基础和比较药理学、传染病和寄生虫学。 CVM 将从州和企业来源提供年度资金，以确保计划质量的持续。 GVSP 旨在吸引未来兽医在成长时期的兴趣，以便他们发展成为新兴医疗问题的独立调查员。
