In Summer 2025, the Roche-Genentech Summer Research Cohort was launched. This summer research opportunities was generously sponsored by Roche-Genentech under a grant for the Xavier College of Pharmacy Investigators: Dr. Al-Dahir and Dr. Okogbaa. The faculty instructors for this course were Dr. Sara Al-Dahir, Dr. Marcia Henry and myself.
In this summer internship, students:
1) Learned important hands-on research skills from the bench sciences across the Biology and Chemistry disciplines
2) Participated in an on-line certificate program where videos, discussion boards and other opportunities will be presented to share information about clinical research pathways, including "bench to bedside" science.
3) Met with clinical trial investigators
