Description
The purpose of the
NIH Summer Research Experience Program (referred to as the “Summer Research
Program”) is to provide a high quality research experience for high school and
college students and for science teachers during the summer academic
break. The NIH expects that such programs will: help attract young
students to careers in science; provide opportunities for college students to
gain valuable research experience to help prepare them for graduate school; and
enhance the skills of science teachers and enable them to more effectively
communicate the nature of the scientific process to their students. The
programs would also contribute to enhancing overall science literacy.
Summer Research Programs that expand and complement existing summer educational
and training programs are encouraged. Note: Not all participating
Institutes and Centers (ICs) support all aspects of this program.
Therefore, prospective applicants must consult the Table
of IC-Specific Information, Requirements and Staff Contacts
in this announcement to determine if your application will be accepted for
review, and should contact staff at the relevant IC (see also Section
VII) to discuss the proposed Program.
