University of Michigan UM-SMART Summer Undergraduate Research Program
I am writing to make you aware of a 10-week summer undergraduate research program sponsored by the University of Michigan Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP, which is an MD/PhD program) on the medical campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. UM-SMART is designed for undergraduate students who have an interest in obtaining a combined MD/PhD degree leading to a career in academic medicine as a physician-scientist performing basic research relevant to human health and disease. As a UM-SMART summer research fellow, students work full-time in a basic research laboratory under the mentorship of a research faculty member.
The goal of the UM-SMART program is to help students decide if a career as a physician-scientist is right for them, and to enhance competitiveness when applying to MD/PhD programs. The UM-SMART has helped 101 undergraduate participants learn about MD/PhD training since 2008. After graduation, 77% of past participants entered MD/PhD, PhD, or MD programs. This 10-week program is aimed at students who have some amount of basic and mechanistic research experience related to medicine and are interested in gaining more experience to advance their career goals. UM-SMART is not intended for students seeking clinical research experience on human subjects. Additionally, we do not offer opportunities in public health, the social sciences, or humanities. More detailed information on UM-SMART is below.
In addition, the MSTP will be hosting an Information Session on January 25, 2023 from 12:00pm-1:30pm EST. This is an informal chat with program staff and current fellows to answer questions about our MD/PhD program, the admissions process, and Michigan. Interested students can register to attend.

Harvard Biophysics Mentorship Program
The Harvard Biophysics Mentorship Program pairs predoctoral students interested in research with current graduate students. Interested students can apply to be matched with a mentor by filling this brief application: https://forms.gle/KVKXvLRNCfGYDqWa7
The deadline for applying to the mentorship program is October 20, 2022.
Students at any stage in their scientific career are encouraged to apply to be a mentee, whether you are trying to get involved in research or considering graduate school. Mentors in the program aim to support each mentee’s scientific journey. Mentors can help mentees
get involved in research
identify summer research programs to apply to
apply to graduate school (e.g. reviewing drafts of research/personal statements)
better understand what being a graduate student is like
clarify their professional goals

The ten-week, virtual summer internship opportunity (May 31 – August 5, 2022) is made possible through a grant to the Quality Education for Minorities (QEM) Network from the National Science Foundation (NSF). The internship will provide $6,000 (undergraduate) and $7,000 ( graduate) taxable stipend, payable in three installments during the summer.
During the internship, students will have an opportunity to be mentored by program officers at NSF that are involved in making science policy and in implementing national programs focused on STEM. The experience is designed to increase the students understanding of how science policy is made as well as to further develop their potential for becoming leaders and proponents of increased participation in STEM by students from underrepresented minority groups.

The EDGE Program for Women in Mathematics
The EDGE Summer Program is a four-week, residential session for women who are entering Ph.D. programs in the mathematical sciences or have completed no more than one year in such a program. Its purpose is to prepare students for the beginning graduate school experience and to continue to mentor them throughout their doctoral studies. During the summer session students attend faculty lectures in subjects such as Algebra, Measure Theory, Numerical Linear Algebra, and Real Analysis. Participants delve deeper into these subjects through collaborative problem sessions with guidance from EDGE mentors, who are current graduate students and/or EDGE alumnae. EDGE coursework is designed to prepare participants for graduate courses, qualifying exams and research, while also providing practical experience in a rigorous academic setting.
The Summer Program will take place July 6 – August 6, 2022 at the University of Oxford. The deadline to apply is February 1, 2022. More information and the application form for the 2022 Summer Session are now available here: Summer Session - THE EDGE PROGRAM (edgeforwomen.org)
Note for Students: Please note that the 2022 EDGE Summer Program will take place at the University of Oxford in the UK, July 6 – August 6, and all EDGE participants will need a valid Passport or a Green Card. If you do not have a passport, or if your passport or green card expires before February 1, 2023, we strongly recommend that you apply for a new one immediately. It may take up to 18 weeks from the day an application is submitted to the day a new passport is received. We will require proof of a valid document no later than April 18, 2022.
Although EDGE is an award-winning program with a proven track record of almost 25 years, we need your help to reach the students who need the transitional courses, mentoring and other support provided by the EDGE community.
