Subject: Summer Internship Opportunities at The Children's Hospital of
Philadelphia

Description:
The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia Research Institute is pleased to
announce that applications are now being accepted for The CHOP Research
Institute Summer Scholars Program (CRISSP). CRISSP is a 10-week competitive
summer internship program for undergraduate students interested in research
related to child health and wellness. Students typically under-represented in
research are especially encouraged to apply.

CRISSP is designed to educate and train future leaders in pediatric
healthcare with opportunities in basic, translational, clinical, and
behavioral research. In addition to completing an independent research
project, interns learn basic techniques and gain exposure to how research is
conducted under the direction of CHOP faculty.
Twenty-five students will be selected. All participants will have multiple
opportunities for clinical shadowing and broad exposure to biomedical
research careers. Students receive a $4,000 stipend, free housing in the
University of Pennsylvania dorms, and need-based travel allowances are
provided. The application deadline is January 31, 2017.
