The deadline for the Translational Research Internship Program is fast approaching. Apply by January 6, 2016.
This summer research internship is designed to provide undergraduate students with greater insight into the physician-scientist career path (combined M.D./Ph.D.). Students will conduct research under the direction of a faculty member at UCHC while gaining a better understanding of the clinical side of medicine by shadowing a physician/surgeon. The program will allow students to see firsthand the interplay of biomedical research and clinical medicine. The program will support 1-2 students who will receive a stipend of $350/week over the course of the 10-week internship.
Undergraduate students with an interest in both medicine and research, a minimum GPA of 3.5, who plan to graduate no earlier than December 2016, are encouraged to apply. Applicants must possess a strong background in science, having completed at least two semesters each of college biology and college chemistry. Prior lab experience is strongly preferred.
