Housing, at a reasonable cost, is located next to the UT-Houston Medical School. The emphasis of the Program is to provide trainees with laboratory experience through specific research projects. Trainees will submit a research abstract for publication and may be asked to present their data in a research forum. Trainees will also attend weekly seminars focusing on biomedical ethics, career development, scientific technique and new discovery, and the relationship between basic research and clinical applications. Specialized training in laboratory and radiation safety, laboratory animal methodology, and research technology is also provided.
