<p>I am a rising junior right now. I am looking for an internship or program to do the summer of junior year (hopefully free of a low cost). I was thinking a science-based, laboratory one. I am interested in cancer research and bio-medical engineering, but I am up for anything really. Any suggestions? </p>
<p>What state do you live in? If you’re in NY, you can probably apply to the company I’m interning at right now (it’s a pharmaceutical development company that has an oncology department… and medical devices but I find that boring lololol). </p>
<p>Illinois. lol is it offered to Illinois Residents</p>
<p>Can you show significant financial need? Some of the ones that cost money have up to full scholarships.</p>
<p>My S just finish the Research Mentorship Program at UCSB, and there were enough scholarship students that they had a specific time on the schedule for them to visit the alumni association to take a photo. It is 6 weeks. There were kids there from all over the US and a few international. I heard that most were rising seniors. I don’t recall any topics that were specifically cancer-related, but there were a lot of stem cell and gene-related things. You don’t get assigned your topic and mentor until the middle of the first week.</p>
