The SRIMS program includes nine weeks of graduate-level research in the field of biomedical sciences. Participants receive formal research training while expanding their learning experience through workshops, seminars on current topics, mentoring and use of state-of-the-art core facilities.
Vision
The vision behind Marshall’s commitment to this program is twofold:
- To establish a pipeline of diverse, underrepresented students into health-related research.
- To enrich the current research through an added diversity of ideas, perspectives, and cultures.
General Guidelines and Eligibility
Each year, applications from undergraduate and underrepresented minority-in-science students who have not graduated by August of the program year are considered. Also, students are required to present their research at the WV Summer Research Symposium the last week of the program and should note this as they commit to the program. A stipend of $3,000 will be provided to each participant for the nine-week experience. Participants will receive free room and board, as well as assistance with travel. Please note that students are required to provide their own health insurance coverage during the summer program.
Application Deadline
The application and supporting documents are due in the office on or before February 9th, 2018.
