Description:
HIPRC's INSIGHT Summer Research Program is an NIH-funded internship at Harborview Medical Center (a level one trauma center), to work on a research project in the field of injury. We offer two separate summer research programs: a program for undergraduates and graduate students, as well as a program for upper level high school students.

Our undergraduate and graduate students are matched to projects and project tasks and are partnered with University of Washington Medical School faculty. Students meet and learn from peers and health professionals from across the country.

Bringing together a diverse group of young people interested in health care and research allows HIPRC to create a unique and rich resource for students who seek to learn more about what they can accomplish in the field of injury and injury prevention. Past research areas for our undergraduate and graduate program include: elucidating the risk factors and causes of injuries, injury prevention strategies, acute and chronic care of injured patients, outcomes from trauma, and interventions to return the injured individual to their full potential.

In addition to the independent research work, we also offer a competitive stipend at $3,200, clinical shadowing, seminars, professional development workshops, and social activities.

Please see our program website for more details, a FAQ's page and how to apply!
