Community Program Attendance (1.00 hours), Non-Accredited (1.00 hours)

This program will be held in-person each Thursday for six weeks. Registration required.

The purpose of the Summer Scientist Series is to expose young people (high school and undergraduates) to the scientific method and careers in medicine and biomedical research. Topic areas to be explored include:

Basic/Discovery Science - Laboratory-based research focused on understanding fundamental mechanisms of disease and normal development. It is typically conducted in a “wet bench” laboratory setting and is focused on understanding biologic processes that occur at the cellular level.

Translational/Clinical Science - Research that aims to turn discoveries in the lab or clinic into new diagnostic or therapeutic interventions. It typically involves the initial development of a candidate new treatment, and then testing how the treatment works in various animal models of a disease.

Population Health Research - Research on factors such as public policies or community-based interventions that influence the health status of population groups. It is typically conducted in a community including a mixture of healthy individuals, as well as those with a variety of health conditions.
