项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this Research Education grant from the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) is to increase the number of veterinarians (Participants) trained to provide veterinary care for research animals, to perform collaborative research and to lead programs of animal care and use. Penn's premier biomedical research environment with Schools of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine, strong group of academic laboratory animal veterinarians and outstanding translational research programs makes it an ideal program for this research education. Our PI/PD and other group members form the faculty of the Division of Laboratory Animal Medicine in the Department of Pathobiology in Penn's School of Veterinary Medicine and are fully-functioning academic role models in addition to providing veterinary and husbandry care and regulatory support. Our administrative service group, University Laboratory Animal Resources reports to the Vice Provost for Research and provides services to 582 PIs with approximately 1,874 active IACUC protocols utilizing a daily census of more than 150,000 animals of more than 20 diverse species housed in more than 240,000 square feet of vivarial space. Veterinary Participants will gain knowledge through lectures and other structured didactic activities and hands-on experience in the use, biology, care and diseases of multiple large and small animal species of animals used for experimentation. Participants receive 1 year of mentored research training in selected laboratories designing and performing research using translational animal models under the guidance of highly successful scientists. Veterinarians completing this program will qualify to sit for certification by the American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM). In addition to varied clinical medical rotations, specific additional rotations have been designed to educate Participants in administration of laboratory animal resource programs, facility management and regulatory support. The strengths of this application are: (1) a proven leadership team with extensive experience in laboratory animal medicine, resident training, research and directing major academic biomedical vivarial service programs; (2) sixteen outstanding Co-investigator Research Mentors with varied opportunities for veterinarians in translational research; (3) large and diverse colonies of research animals including many large animal models; (4) a proven, mentored training process which supports veterinarians during laboratory animal and research training; (5) experienced supplemental trainers in vivarial business and husbandry services; (6) training in diagnostic services and the pathology of laboratory animals from experts (7) training and experience in presentation skills and public speaking and (8) five additional diverse ACLAM- and ACVIM certified veterinarians to provide individualized side-by-side training in clinical laboratory animal medicine. We request funding to train 3 additional veterinarians in the upcoming 5 years.

描述（由申请人提供）：宾夕法尼亚大学（PENN）的这项研究教育补助金的目标是增加受过培训的兽医（参与者）的数量，以为研究动物提供兽医护理，进行协作研究并领导动物护理和使用计划。宾夕法尼亚州的主要生物医学研究环境，具有医学和兽医学院，强大的学术实验室动物兽医和杰出的转化研究计划，使其成为这项研究教育的理想计划。我们的PI/PD和其他小组成员构成了宾夕法尼亚州兽医学院病理生物学系实验室动物医学系学院，除了提供兽医和饲养护理和监管支持外，还完全发挥了学术榜样。我们的行政服务小组，大学实验室动物资源向副教务长报告进行研究，并为582个PI提供服务，其中大约有1,874个活跃的IACUC协议，每天的人口普查大约有超过20种多种物种的每日人口普查，这些动物拥有超过240,000平方英尺的生命空间。兽医参与者将通过讲座和其他结构化的教学活动以及在用于实验的多种大型和小动物的动物中的使用，生物学，护理和疾病中获得知识。在非常成功的科学家的指导下，参与者接受了精选实验室设计和进行研究研究的指导研究培训。完成该计划的兽医将有资格获得美国实验室动物医学学院（ACLAM）的认证。除了多样化的临床医疗轮换外，还设计了特定的其他轮换，以教育参与者在实验室动物资源计划，设施管理和监管支持方面的管理。该应用程序的优势是：（1）一个在实验室动物医学，居民培训，研究和指导主要的学术生物医学服务计划方面拥有丰富经验的成熟领导团队；（2）16名出色的共同投资者研究导师，在翻译研究中为兽医提供了不同机会；（3）包括许多大型动物模型，包括许多大型动物模型的研究动物的大型菌落；（4）经过验证的指导培训过程，在实验室动物和研究培训期间支持兽医；（5）经验丰富的胎生和饲养服务的补充培训师；（6）对诊断服务的培训以及专家的实验动物的病理学培训（7）演示技巧和公开演讲方面的培训和经验以及（8）五个其他多样化的ACLAM-和ACVIM认证的兽医，以在临床实验室动物医学方面提供个性化的并排培训。我们要求资金在接下来的5年中培训3名另外3名兽医。
