NIH Summer Research Fellowship Program

TAMHSC Arrows COM Arrows Office of the Vice Dean for R&GS Arrows Student Research Opportunities Arrows NIH Summer Research Fellowship Program

This program is a summer program at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, MD for medical students. Medical students usually take advantage of this opportunity between their first and second years of medical school, but it is open to medical students at any level. Research can be on any topic available at the NIH, and length of the fellowship is flexible (depending upon the length of your summer break). Applicants do not have to have a project/mentor identified ahead of time. Applicants select an institute of interest (there are 26 institutes at the NIH) and that institute will receive your application that you fill out online. While not a year-off program, many medical students who do this program decide to come back to the NIH for one the year-long programs. The Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine has sent at least one student to this program.

Details of the program, including deadlines, housing, stipend, etc. can be found online.
