Are there research opportunities for undergraduates and med students?

The University of Chicago Medicine is dedicated to inspiring students and trainees of exceptional promise and preparing them to become the leading physicians, scientists, researchers, and educators of tomorrow.

We strongly encourage undergraduate students to apply for the Collediate Translational Medicine Program. The Collegiate Translational Medicine Program (CTMP) is a mentored, clinically-oriented translational research experience for undergraduates, offering training in translational research by exposure and immersion into specific research projects currently being conducted in the Department of Medicine.

The CTMP Fellows will spend 37.5 hours per week in the summer quarter learning the general skills of clinical and translational research through didactic sessions on specialized topics and experiential opportunities working directly with patients. Working in a multi-tiered network of peers and mentors, fellows will learn how to work as part of a team, participate in regular team and project meetings, and receive regular performance feedback, advancing through increasingly responsible tasks based on demonstrated competency in those tasks.

If you are interested in applying, please visit The Collegiate Translational Medicine Program (CTMP).
