The program seeks to help veterinary students become biomedical researchers. A secondary goal is to provide research experience to veterinary students interested in careers in laboratory animal medicine and/or pathology. Previous participants were veterinary students at Colorado State University, Cornell University, Kansas State University, Michigan State University, North Carolina State University, Ohio State University, Purdue University, Tufts University, Tuskegee University, University of California, University of Illinois, University of Tennessee, Washington State University, and Western University. The Program consists of workshops on research-related topics, a veterinary student journal club, sessions on research career development for veterinarians, an individual research project, and a veterinary student research symposium. The research project is the most important part of the Program. The goals of the research project are to have students address a significant experimental question, work independently and with other researchers, and produce and publish results. Students are matched with a preceptor (see list of faculty below) according to research interests. The preceptor outlines a focused project for the student to perform in their laboratory. Students become completely involved in their assigned laboratory participating in laboratory meetings and social events, attending seminars with other members of their laboratory, and working on their research project at least 40 hours/week.

https://www.vet.k-state.edu/research/docs/BRITE-application.pdf

The BRITE Veterinary Student Program provides DVM students interested in research with a subsidized, in-depth mentored research experience. The opportunity can be used to gain research experience, to obtain an MS, or to jump-start a DVM/PhD program. The BRITE veterinary student program is designed to expose DVM students to hypothesis-driven research activities, methodologies involved in design and execution of laboratory experiments and ethical issues pertinent to biomedical research, at a formative stage of their veterinary education. BRITE veterinary students are given a unique opportunity to utilize the rigorous didactic basic science training obtained during the first two years of the professional curriculum in pursuit of a research problem relevant to human and animal health. Sponsors: The program is funded by Kansas State University.

http://www.vetmed.lsu.edu/Summer_Scholars_Program.htm

The aim of the Summer Scholars Program is to provide veterinary medical students the opportunity to explore the world of biomedical research, develop and complete a biomedical research project during the summer. The intent is to engage students in a creative, problem-solving research activity and to provide a learning experience that will lead to the discovery of new knowledge in an area of their choosing and identify potential pathways to a career in biomedical research. Research plans will be developed by students with faculty mentor input, on any topic of interest to the student and likely to lead to the discovery of new information. Example topics are: immunology and infectious diseases, cancer biology, molecular epidemiology, experimental studies focused on nutrition and obesity, pharmacology, environmental toxicology, mechanisms of pathogenesis, zoonoses, biomechanics, cardiovascular pathophysiology, and others. The mentor and other advisors will provide guidance to students and an assessment of progress. Students will provide at completion of the study, an oral presentation of their results to their colleagues and all mentors and a presentation of results via posters at the annual Merial NIH National Veterinary Scholars Symposium, to be held in 2010 at the University of Georgia, and at the LSU Phi Zeta Research Emphasis Day. It is noteworthy that one Summer Scholar won an award at the 2008 LSU Phi Zeta Research Emphasis Day. LSU Students will receive elective credit in the curriculum (VMED 5010 or VMED 5463) for successful completion of the program. Students will be strongly encouraged to work with their mentors to publish their findings in peer-reviewed journals separately or as a smaller piece of work with their mentors. Sponsors: The program is funded by a Merial Foundation grant and an NIH T35 training grant.

http://www.phenote.org/

Phenote is both a complete piece of software and a software toolkit designed to facilitate the annotation of biological phenotypes using ontologies. It provides an interface and infrastructure to record genotype-phenotype pairs, together with the provenance for the annotation. Typical users of Phenote include literature curators, laboratory researchers, and clinicians looking for a method to record data in a user-friendly and computable way. Features of Phenote include the use of any OBO-format ontology, ontology navigation and term information display, bulk sort, copy, edit, and delete of phenotype-genotype character entries, and a variety of export formats. Phenote is a project of the Berkeley Bioinformatics Open-Source Projects (BBOP).

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on February 18, 2014.

A networking site for investigators using animal models to study aging, developed to provide a venue for sharing information about research models for aging studies. If you have tissue or data from animal models relevant to aging research that you are willing to share with other investigators, D-SARM allows you to identify the model and provides a secure, blinded email contact for investigators who would like to contact you about acquiring tissue or related resources. Investigators looking for resources from a particular model enter search terms describing the model of interest and then use the provided link to send emails to the contacts (names blinded) listed in the search results to initiate dialog about tissue or resources available for sharing. The database is housed on a secure server and admission to the network is moderated by the NIA Project Officer and limited to investigators at academic, government and non-profit research institutions. The goal is to provide a secure environment for sharing information about models used in aging research, promoting the sharing of resources, facilitating new research on aging in model systems, and increasing the return on the investment in research models.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 26, 2016. LINNEA Pathways is a user-friendly comprehensive online resource for gene- or protein-based scientific research. It is based on a total of 248 signaling and metabolic human biological pathway maps created for Invitrogen by GeneGo. The current version of iPath features 225 maps displaying human regulatory and metabolic pathways established in experimental literature produced by MetaCore from GeneGo, Inc. The map objects (proteins, genes, EC functions, and compounds) are connected via metabolic transformations and physical protein interactions, which were assembled by the GeneGo team of experienced annotators, geneticists, and biochemists. The pathways are organized in a vertical fashion following the general signaling path from signaling molecules and membrane receptors, via signal transduction cascades, to transcription factors and their gene targets. Following the natural organization of cellular machinery with highly interconnected pathways and modules, many maps are linked together via hyperlinked box symbols. Such linkage allows the reconstruction of a big picture view of human cell biology., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
