Subject: 2018 Regenerative Medicine Summer Internship Opportunities

Description:
I am writing to let your students know about our paid summer research
opportunities. The SRF Summer Scholars Program offers undergraduate students
the opportunity to conduct biomedical research to combat diseases of aging,
such as cancer and Parkinson’s disease. Under the guidance of a scientific
mentor, each Summer Scholar is responsible for his or her own research
project in such areas as genetic engineering and stem cell research. The
Program emphasizes development of both laboratory and communication skills to
develop well-rounded future scientists, healthcare professionals, and policy
makers. Students participating in the program will hone their writing skills
via writing assignments, which are designed to emulate text scientists
commonly must produce. At the end of the summer, students will have the
opportunity to put all of their newly developed communication skills into
practice at a student symposium.

Paid positions are available at:
• Buck Institute for Research on Aging
• Harvard School of Medicine
• Sanford Consortium for Regenerative Medicine
• SRF Research Center
• The Scripps Research Institute
• University of California, Berkeley
• University of Oxford

The online application and a full descriptions of each research project can
be found at www.sens.org/2018-summer-scholars. Applications will be accepted
until 12 pm PST February 5, 2018.
