The following page was developed to provide you with HMS student contacts who completed funded, summer research at BIDMC during the summer period between their first and second years of study. These students have graciously volunteered to connect with students interested in learning more about their research and experience at BIDMC. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to them directly. Contacts are added as we receive permission.
As a reminder, you can learn more about the program, application, process, and review available projects here: Information for Students | Student Experience
You can apply to projects here: https://redcap-edc.bidmc.harvard.edu/edata/surveys/?s=8F4PE9RY3AWPLTCW
