Biomedical Research and Health Internships
The Biomedical and Health Internships offer students the opportunity to conduct research or work in a lab setting with a mentor. Interns are expected to become familiar with the research approaches used by their mentors. At the mentor’s discretion, students may: develop a specific project within the research team; have shadowing opportunities with a health professional; and interact with patients and their families through volunteer experiences.
