Significant needs exist at the national level for skilled veterinary scientists who are trained in modern research methods, representing essential expertise in a biomedical research community that is increasingly utilizing (and benefitting from) comparative medical approaches. The purpose of this training grant application is to provide short term research experiences for professional veterinary medical students, allowing them to acquire specific technical and conceptual skills to perform hypothesis based research involving biochemical/molecular, tissue culture, and/or animal models of disease. The goal is to stimulate further interest in a research career, beginning with graduate educational opportunities that can include a combined DVM/MS program, or graduate education leading to a PhD following completion of the DVM. The summer research experience will focus upon students that have just completed the first year of the professional curriculum at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine. The college has the largest student population in the nation (140 per class), and has been able to increasingly recruit (and support) students wishing to explore research experiences. The program will be administered through the Department of Veterinary Biosciences (VBS), which has a well established interdisciplinary graduate faculty drawing from multiple components of the University Health Sciences Center. These basic and clinical sciences faculty represent the Colleges of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine, Childrens Hospital, and the Comprehensive Cancer Center. Selected students will acquaint themselves with ongoing basic and clinical research in the laboratories and clinical sites of participating faculty, and select a research problem. The trainees will participate in the design and execution of experiments, and analysis of experimental results. The research experience will be supplemented by short courses in biostatics and ethical considerations in the responsible conduct of research. The research experience will be followed by a symposium (scheduled during the following autumn quarter) in which students will present results of their research, this serving as an important recruiting mechanisms for future classes. The symposium will also be allow a more formal discussion of research oriented careers for veterinarians and pathways to obtain them.

国家层面对接受过现代研究方法培训的熟练兽医科学家存在巨大需求，这些科学家代表了越来越多地利用（并受益于）比较医学方法的生物医学研究界的基本专业知识。该培训补助金申请的目的是为专业兽医学生提供短期研究经验，使他们能够获得特定的技术和概念技能，以进行涉及生化/分子、组织培养和/或疾病动物模型的基于假设的研究。目标是激发人们对研究职业的进一步兴趣，从研究生教育机会开始，其中包括 DVM/MS 组合课程，或完成 DVM 后获得博士学位的研究生教育。夏季研究经验将集中于刚刚完成俄亥俄州立大学兽医学院第一年专业课程的学生。该学院拥有全国最多的学生人数（每班 140 人），并且能够越来越多地招收（和支持）希望探索研究经验的学生。该项目将通过兽医生物科学系（VBS）管理，该系拥有一支完善的跨学科研究生教师队伍，来自大学健康科学中心的多个组成部分。 这些基础科学和临床科学教师代表医学和兽医学院、儿童医院和综合癌症中心。选定的学生将熟悉参与教师的实验室和临床场所正在进行的基础和临床研究，并选择一个研究问题。学员将参与实验的设计和执行，以及实验结果的分析。研究经验将通过生物统计学和负责任的研究行为中的伦理考虑的短期课程得到补充。研究经验之后将举行一次研讨会（计划在接下来的秋季季度举行），学生将在会上展示他们的研究成果，这是未来课程的重要招募机制。研讨会还将就兽医的研究型职业以及获得这些职业的途径进行更正式的讨论。
