2026 Nuclear Science Career Academy (NSCA) Summer Internship Program:
We have two openings for summer internships in my research group as part of the 2026 NSCA at the MU Research Reactor. This internship is available to both Mizzou and non-Mizzou undergraduate applicants and will last for 8 weeks, with the possibility of an extension to 11 weeks. Interns will focus on developing extracellular matrix (ECM) pre-scaffolds on lipid nanoparticles, aiming to achieve desired structures and mechanical properties to modulate cellular behavior. For non-Mizzou applicants, travel expenses will be covered for one round-trip to and from Columbia, MO. If you are interested, please send your CV and a motivation letter to apply at phanmd@missouri.edu.
