DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application represents the second 5 year competitive renewal of our veterinary student-targeted, pre-doctoral T32 training program (see "PA-11-184"), called the Yearlong Exposure to Advanced Research, or "YEAR", Program at the University of California Davis (UCD). The YEAR Program is structured as a 1-year training opportunity for veterinary students from diverse backgrounds who seek to further their interest in hypothesis-based comparative and biomedical research. To accomplish this, applications will be encouraged from veterinary students at any AVMA-accredited School or College of Veterinary Medicine in the United States. The 3 veterinary students selected each year will be awarded full financial support to participate in supervised research under the guidance of any of 51 NIH-supported faculty...MD's, DVM's, PhD's...with active research programs from 23 departments in 6 schools and affiliated with 26 centers and participating in 7 graduate groups and programs across the UC Davis campus who have committed to welcoming veterinary students into their laboratories. Students will be afforded up to four 3-month long rotations during the year. This unique research training opportunity effectively adds a 5th year to the student's 4 year professional education and training. During the previous 8 years of the Program, 22 DVM students were selected and appointed as trainees, all of whom have elected to pursue their PhD degree after completing the program and before graduating from veterinary school. Thus, we have fulfilled all the expectations of this special T32 training mechanism, and utilized the YEAR Program to seek, recruit, and catalyze a new generation of veterinary students, especially women and underrepresented minorities, to embark on advanced scientific research training. In so doing, continued funding of the YEAR Program will help to ensure that highly trained comparative medical scientists will be available to meet the growing needs for principal investigator-driven and collaborative animal-based, biomedical research. Therefore, we seek to competitively renew our NIH funded T32 YEAR Program and allow us to continue to encourage the best and brightest veterinary students, particularly women and underrepresented minorities, to experience biomedical research and to convince them to pursue academic professional scientific careers.

描述（由申请人提供）：此申请代表了我们针对兽医学生对兽医的竞争更新的竞争续约，该计划是在加利福尼亚大学戴维斯大学（UCD）的“ PA-11-11-184”培训计划（请参阅“ PA-111-184”），称为“一年一度的高级研究”或“年”，“年”，“年度”。这一年的计划是为来自不同背景的兽医学生提供的为期1年的培训机会，他们旨在进一步对基于假设的比较和生物医学研究的兴趣。为此，将鼓励美国任何AVMA认可的学校或美国兽医学院的兽医学生的申请。每年选出的3名兽医学生将获得全面的财政支持，以在51名NIH支持的教师中参加监督研究。在这一年中，学生将最多可容纳四个3个月的轮换。这种独特的研究培训机会有效地增加了学生4年的专业教育和培训的第五年。在该计划的前8年中，被选为22名DVM学生，并任命为学员，所有这些学生都在完成该计划后和从兽医学校毕业之前选择了博士学位。因此，我们满足了这种特殊T32培训机制的所有期望，并利用了年度计划来寻求，招募和催化新一代的兽医学生，尤其是妇女和代表性不足的少数群体，以进行先进的科学研究培训。这样一来，年度持续资助计划将有助于确保训练有素的比较医学科学家可以满足不断增长的首席研究员驱动和基于动物的生物医学研究的需求。因此，我们寻求竞争性续签我们的NIH资助的T32年计划，并允许我们继续鼓励最优秀，最聪明的兽医学生，尤其是妇女和代表性不足的少数群体，以体验生物医学研究，并说服他们从事学术专业科学照料。
