Description: At NYU Grossman School of Medicine, our Vilcek Institute of Graduate Biomedical Sciences offers qualified college students who have completed their sophomore or junior year the opportunity to participate in our Summer Undergraduate Research Program, also known as SURP.
As a member of the summer class, you join 30 students working in our exciting academic medical environment at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and NYU Langone Health. Participants are matched with a laboratory of interest in your preferred research area. Placement ultimately depends on the availability of mentors and the appropriateness of a lab for a summer intern.
In a typical week, you spend most of your time conducting hands-on research under your research mentor’s direction in his or her lab. You also participate in weekly “Conversations with a Scientist/Physician” lunch sessions, journal clubs, and a series of Wednesday seminars followed by dinner at a local restaurant.
At the end of the summer, you have the opportunity to present your research at the Leadership Alliance National Symposium. Opens in a new tab, also known as LANS. You also give a poster presentation to the NYU Langone research community.
Accepted students receive a $3,500 payment, free housing, and reimbursement for round-trip travel expenses. You arrange for your own food and other living expenses.
