项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There is a crucial need for veterinarians with research training to participate in academic as well as corporate based research in the fields of animal and human health. Veterinarians trained in this century need to acquire the scientific skills and technical training together with the conceptual framework to participate both as independent researchers and collaborators to meet the projected national research needs in the biomedical sciences. The objective of the proposed training described here is to provide bright, and highly-motivated veterinary students with a one year, in-depth research experience in a productive and active research setting. Training will involve the use of animal models to develop skills at hypothesis-based, biomedical research. Over a five year period, our aim is to train ten students (2/year). Applicants will be actively recruited from incoming and existing veterinary classes at Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine with an effort to insure minority student participation. Participants receive 12 months of consecutive research training following completion of their second year of veterinary school. The training is integrated into a Master of Science degree program (D.V.M./M.S.) specifically designed for trainees in this program. This degree program includes limited course work and complementary seminars. Program faculty consists of 12 NIH supported faculty members from both our basic and clinical departments. Using animal models that include pigs, horses, sheep, goats, cats, dogs, rats and mice, program faculty will provide intensive laboratory training in the research areas of infectious diseases, reproductive biology, digestive diseases, neuroscience and behavior, nutrition, and respiratory physiology. The training program and the promotion of veterinary student research are strongly supported by the Dean of Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, the Associate Dean for Research and the faculty. Our long-term objective is to make this research training experience an effective launching pad for career involvement in biomedical research for Tufts' graduates. The success of the program will be evaluated by determining the number and quality of trainees that integrate health science research into their professional careers. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by applicant): Not provided.

描述（由申请人提供）：对兽医进行研究培训至关重要，以参与动物和人类健康领域的学术和基于企业的研究。在本世纪接受培训的兽医需要获得科学技能和技术培训以及概念框架，以作为独立研究人员和合作者参与，以满足生物医学科学中预计的国家研究需求。此处描述的拟议培训的目的是为在富有成效和积极的研究环境中提供一年，深入的研究经验，为一年的研究经验提供鲜明的，高度动机的兽医学生。培训将涉及使用动物模型在基于假设的生物医学研究中发展技能。在五年内，我们的目标是培训十名学生（2/年）。申请人将在塔夫茨卡明斯兽医学院的来到和现有兽医课程中积极招募，以确保少数族裔学生的参与。参与者在兽医学校第二年完成后接受了12个月的连续研究培训。该培训被整合到科学硕士学位课程（D.V.M./M.S。）中，专为该计划的受训者而设计。该学位课程包括有限的课程工作和补充研讨会。课程教职员工由来自我们基本和临床部门的12名支持NIH的支持教师。计划教师使用包括猪，马，绵羊，山羊，猫，狗，大鼠，大鼠和小鼠的动物模型，将在传染病，生殖生物学，消化系统疾病，神经科学和行为，营养和呼吸理学的研究领域提供深入的实验室培训。 Tufts Cummings兽医学院院长，研究和教职员工副院长为培训计划和促进兽医学生研究的促进。我们的长期目标是使这项研究培训经验成为簇生毕业生生物医学研究的有效启动垫。该计划的成功将通过确定将健康科学研究纳入其职业职业的学员的数量和质量来评估。公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：未提供。
