The University of Alabama at Birmingham is offering three exciting summer opportunities for undergraduate students – the Summer in Biomedical Sciences (SIBS) Undergraduate Research Program, the Preparation for Graduate and Medical Education (PARAdiGM), and the UAB Kidney Undergraduate Research Program (KURE). These programs introduce outstanding undergraduates to the exciting career options of being a scientific investigator while also being a practicing physician. Eligible students may apply to all programs through a single application (https://www.uab.edu/medicine/sibs/application).
- These 8-week programs are held concurrently from May 31-July 26, 2019
- Students will receive stipends and free on-campus housing but will be responsible for travel to and from Birmingham, AL and other expenses
- Students in all programs will be introduced to the concept of scientific research, principles of scientific experimentation, the proper methods of data analysis, the interpretation, presentation, and translational applications of research results, and to clinicians who practice at academic medical centers.
Applications must be submitted online and the deadline is February 15, 2019.
Summer in Biomedical Sciences (SIBS) Undergraduate Research Program http://www.uab.edu/sibs
Our goal in offering this fellowship is to give talented undergraduate students the opportunity to experience the challenges and rewards of intensive, hypothesis-drive laboratory research. This experience should help students make well informed decisions about future career plans. Previous research experience is not required. We especially welcome applications from students who are interested in research as a potential career, including students interested in PhD and MD-PhD programs. We accept 15 students per summer into this program. We expect applicants to SIBS to have completed at least their sophomore year of undergraduate coursework. We anticipate that successful candidates will typically demonstrate grade point averages of 3.0 (“B”) or higher, especially in science, math, and related areas.
Preparation for Graduate and Medical Education (PARAdiGM) http://www.uab.edu/medicine/paradigm/
The NIH R25 PARAdiGM Summer Program focuses on undergraduates from diverse and underrepresented minority backgrounds, and offers the opportunity to participate in the program for two summers. In addition to working in the laboratory of a faculty mentor with an actively funded biomedical research program, PARAdiGM participants will learn about careers in academic medical centers (AMCs) by shadowing clinician-investigators in their clinics, as well as on in-patient rounds. At the end of the first summer in the program, the students will write an abstract and participate in both a local and national poster presentation of their research results. The students will also receive instruction in essay writing, MCAT preparation, and critical career skills. The ultimate goal of the program is to provide undergraduate students with an understanding and appreciation of the biomedical research process so as to encourage them to pursue careers studying patients and their diseases after further postgraduate training in graduate and medical education. Previous research experience is not required in order to apply. The PARAdiGM program is especially useful for students who do not have local access to biomedical research and/or academic physician-scientist role models.
UAB Kidney Undergraduate Research Program (KURE) https://www.uab.edu/medicine/nephrology/research/cardio-renal-physiology-and-medicine/kure
The NIN R25 KURE (Kidney Undergraduate Research Experience) Summer Program gives you the opportunity to learn about advances in kidney research and be mentored as you work on your own research project in a lab within UAB’s kidney community of investigators. This 8-week program allows you the unique opportunity to gain experience in the field of biomedical research.
]]>The Regional Math Science Center at Frostburg State University, an Upward Bound Math Science program for students in Maryland, is search for summer staff for our 2-, 3-, and 5-week research programs. We are searching for a summer staff that enjoys working with high school students with math/science career aspirations to help them grow both academically and socially as they prepare to enroll in college after high school graduation. I have attached job advertisements for our three available summer positions: Head Resident, Science Teachers, and Tutor Counselors. Please feel free to share these job opportunities with your students and/or fellow staff.Here is the video link for our program and our website for more information on our program: https://vimeo.com/257504779/3c27ca990c;www.frostburg.edu/student-life/rmsc/.See attachments for details on the positions or visit https://www.frostburg.edu/student-life/rmsc/.
University of Michigan's Short Term Educational Program (STEP) towards Digestive and Metabolic Physiology is specifically targeted to students from mathematics, physics engineering, computational sciences and other quantitative backgrounds to encourage them to apply their expertise to research relevant to digestive and metabolic physiology and associated diseases.
Each student is matched, based on their interests, to a laboratory that is led by a faculty mentor of the Department of Molecular & Integrative Physiology and other departments at the University of Michigan Medical School. This collection of laboratories is involved in nationally recognized research, in topics such as obesity and diabetes, endocrine and metabolic diseases, kidney and urologic diseases, nutrition and weight control.
The funding amount for 2019 will be $4,200, pre-tax, for twelve weeks of full-time work from May 28 to August 16. The start and/or end date of the fellowship may be shifted slightly to accommodate overlap with the academic year at home institutions, if necessary. The laboratory hands-on research experience is complemented by a weekly noon lecture series with presentations on responsible conduct of research, several aspects of digestive and metabolic physiology, and how loss of physiological regulation leads to disease. Students are expected to attend other departmental and university lectures/seminars. Towards the end of the summer fellowship, the students will participate in a mini-symposium in which they give a 10 minute oral presentation of their research findings followed by a question and answer period.
Students who are currently enrolled at any degree granting university or college are eligible to apply. Preference is given to those students interested in a career in research. Funding is limited to U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
**Applications are due on February 1st, 2019**
