NIH Launches Medical Research Scholars Program

The NIH announced a new Medical Research Scholars Program for medical and dental students beginning in September 2012. The program will offer research experiences with intramural investigators from across NIH in basic science laboratories, and in clinical and translational research conducted at the NIH Clinical Center. The program is made possible through a partnership with the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health supported by a grant from Pfizer Inc. and contributions from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
