Participants work on projects in either basic or clinical science areas.
Students who have participated in the program in the past have given it high marks for being fun, exciting and beneficial to their development. A total of 10 students will be selected to participate in the program. The main activity during the program is the active participation of each student in a research project under the guidance of a faculty mentor. The project should be designed so that it can be completed during the summer, and the results should warrant presentation at a national meeting or publication in a scientific journal. Second, several College faculty make short presentations on their research programs.
