High School Internships/research

<p>hi all,</p>

<p>i am a sophomore in the bay area of california. I am looking for internship, or research or any kind of oppurtunities regarding the <em>medical field</em>. I do not care if i'm paid or not, i just want to do some sort of research or internship or anything. However, i want it to be in califronia and <em>most</em> preferrably in the bay area.
DOES ANYONE KNOW SUCH PLACES IN THE BAY AREA?
I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE A LIST OF PLACES, IF POSSIBLE!!!!
PLEASE HELP</p>

<p>The Center for Clinical Immunology at Stanford has a program for juniors and graduating seniors -- ccis.stanford.edu.</p>

<p>yea...i know of that one..
any other places/suggestions?
please help!!!!!</p>

<p>anyone got any suggestions?
please help!!!</p>

<p>wow! wat a forum....3 days and no one replies...wow</p>

<p>Perhaps nobody else has a response. Maybe you should do the research on your own, and then share the results with the rest of us.</p>

<p>come on...i know someone's gotta know something...</p>

<p>This won't be much help mainly because I'm in Michigan, but my son was also looking for something medical as a HS sophomore. Any internships he investigated were usually given to college students. He was able to do volunteer work at local hospitals and spent quite a lot of time at Gilda's Club one summer. Have you tried googling? Contacting hospitals and other medical facilities? Our local newspaper has a long list of volunteer opportunities. My son also attended a state-sponsored (and now discontinued) summer program that was medicine/science related at an area college - we had to pay a fee for that, though. Good luck -</p>
