Summer Research Proposal Deadline Approaching

The deadline to submit proposals for the 2017 Medical Student Summer Research Program is March 1, 2017.

The University of South Alabama College of Medicine’s Summer Research Program is a 9-week program (May 31 through July 28, 2017) that pairs medical students with faculty mentors. The program is open to entering medical students and rising second-year medical students in the USA College of Medicine.

Through this program, students develop an appreciation of how research contributes to the knowledge and the practice of medicine. The summer experience includes hands-on research related to basic science and/or clinical medicine; a seminar program that focuses on various scientific and clinical topics; and student presentations at Research Day.

The Medical Student Research Proposal form and the Research Compliance Checklist for the Summer Research Program can be found here. Please submit these forms to Marcina Lang, the program coordinator, at marcinalang@southalabama.edu.
