Looking for Summer Research in Cancer Biology?

The George Washington Summer Program Advancing Research on Cancer (GW SPARC) engages diverse undergraduates in a mentored summer research experience at the GW Cancer Center in Washington DC. Learn more about GW SPARC.

Students participate in cutting-edge research, learn contemporary cancer research techniques, examine health disparities and the impact of cancer in different communities, and prepare for research careers.

In addition to conducting basic science research with a mentor, students attend weekly workshops and seminars focused on cancer research, research skills, career development, and graduate school applications.

At the end of the summer, all students present in a poster session with other undergraduate researchers.

Students will be matched with outstanding researchers at the Cancer Center in:
