For over a decade, Children’s Memorial Research Center offered undergraduate and medical students the opportunity to participate in research programs during the summer. The primary goals of the Summer Student Research Program were to stimulate interest in these individuals and to train them in the fundamental aspects of biomedical and clinical research. By participating in medical research, we hoped they would acquire a more clear understanding of how intellectual exploration and the scientific method are applied to solving biological problems.

We hope you will find this information helpful.
