<p>Hey guys, I'm sure there was a thread like this one before, but I'll open a new one anyway. Can we put together a list of summer programs for those interested in going to the medical field? Here is what I have so far:</p>
<ul>
<li>Scripps Research Institute (internship)</li>
<li>Notre Dame PreMed Summer Program</li>
</ul>
<p>That's pretty much all I found. If anyone could add to the list, that'd be great. :)</p>
<p>Simr at Stanford</p>
<p>Florida State University College of Medicine has a good program. My son attended last summer and really enjoyed it.</p>
<p>RSI, Clark, NIH, Rockefeller Summer Outreach Program for sure.</p>
<p>I think I remember hearing about Garcia and Sams in past years.</p>
<p>Here is iceui2 list for top science research programs that I found useful in past years.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Here are also some of their links:
</p>
<p>I hope this helps.</p>
<p>^^Very helpful, thanks!</p>
<p>Are there any more for sophmoreS?</p>
<p>^Especially under 16 sophomores ;)</p>
<p>There are good non research academic programs for younger students. These include CTY and EPGY.</p>
<p>You can also always try contacting professors and researchers directly.</p>
<p>If you are under 16, it is difficult to do research as many places want you to be 16 (I am assuming for liability stuff/maturity). However, contacting professors directly may still work as that initiative often shows maturity.</p>
<p>There is a thread in this forum discussing how specifically to acquire independent research programs. It shouldn’t be more than a couple pages back (I would provide a link but I cant open multiple tabs at the moment)</p>
<p>Found it <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/summer-programs/1063234-how-apply-independent-research-internships.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/summer-programs/1063234-how-apply-independent-research-internships.html</a></p>
<p>There’s some great advice in there (:</p>
<p>Hey guys. I just had a question. Are there any medical programs w/ research that DON’T take up seven to eight weeks of my summer. Haha, sorry for the sass but I really do have an interest in medicine but at the same time don’t want to spend my entire summer doing a program.
Haha, I’m looking for like a 1-3 week program on the East Coast
Anyone?</p>
<p>Research internship are generally longer because you can’t get results in 1-3 weeks. Training alone can take over a week.</p>
<p>I guess I would recommend more of a class if you only have 1-3 weeks. Will still offer you research knowledge but you won’t do your own project or anything. Summer@Brown comes to mind. More of a pay to go program but probably has a class that will interest you and teach you a lot.</p>
