Molecular Medicine In Action symposium is a hands-on program for high school
students to experience the methods scientists use in unlocking and modifying
the genetic code of diseases. Each year, we provide a group of Indiana high
school students the opportunity to receive hands-on experience in understanding
research in human genetics. These students work side-by-side in laboratory stations with Indiana University School of Medicine
researchers and physicians in one of the most modern cancer research centers in the country.

University of Chicago EYES on Cancer & ResearcHStart
ResearcHStart https://cancer.uchicago.edu/education/pipeline-programs/researchstart/
ResearcHStart welcomes high school students to explore exciting careers in cancer research. Participants work full time in the laboratories of established cancer researchers, gaining hands-on experience in areas at the forefront of the field: cancer immunology, pharmacogenomics of anticancer agents, bioengineering, experimental cancer therapeutics, cancer disparities, and more.
Rigorous research training is complemented by career development and skill-building workshops, a cancer-based faculty lecture series, and a network of faculty and peer mentors dedicated to students’ success. The program culminates in a research symposium for family, friends, and members of the scientific community.
Participants receive a taxable stipend of $2,000.

EYES on Cancer https://cancer.uchicago.edu/education/pipeline-programs/eyes/
Chicago EYES on Cancer is a cancer research training program for underrepresented high school and college students interested in careers in biomedicine. The program also welcomes secondary science educators who teach students from underrepresented backgrounds.
For two consecutive summers, participants work full-time in the laboratories of established cancer researchers at the University. Rigorous research training is complemented with a cancer-based lecture series, skill-building workshops, and a network of faculty and peer mentors dedicated to participants’ success. The program culminates in a research symposium to showcase participants’ work across basic, translational, clinical, and population-based areas of cancer research.
Chicago EYES on Cancer is funded by a grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in addition to generous donations. Programming is provided in part through a partnership with Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry.

University of Chicago Research in Biological Sciences (RIBS)
Cost: ~$9,355.00
Live on campus in University of Chicago dorms for 4 weeks and experience "life at the bench" and learn cutting-edge molecular, cellular and microbiological research techniques. The goal of the Research in the Biological Sciences (RIBS) program at the University of Chicago is to provide a four-week training program for high school students. It surveys topics related to molecular, microbiological, and cell biological techniques currently used in research laboratories. Basic lab skills are taught. Some students will be invited back the following summer to carry out a research project in one of the faculty labs at the Center. A hands-on systems biology module links students to Center projects. Modeling activities highlight links between environmental perturbations (such as osmotic stress) and complex system dynamics.

MIT Research Summer Institute
Each summer, 80 of the world's most accomplished high school students gather at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for the Research Science Institute (RSI). RSI is the first cost-free to students, summer science & engineering program to combine on-campus course work in scientific theory with off-campus work in science and technology research.
Click Here For More Information:
http://www.cee.org/research-science-institute
Participants experience the entire research cycle from start to finish. They
read the most current literature in their field, draft and execute a detailed
research plan, and deliver conference-style oral and written reports on their
findings.
RSI scholars first participate in a week of intensive STEM classes with
accomplished professors. The heart of RSI is the five week research internship
where students conduct individual projects under the tutelage of mentors who are
experienced scientists and researchers. During the final week of RSI, students
prepare written and oral presentations on their research projects.

NREIP
provides competitive research internships to approximately 275 college students
(200 undergraduate students and 75 graduate students) each year. Participating
students spend ten weeks during the summer conducting research at
approximately 29 laboratories.
Award duration and stipend
The internship has a duration of 10 weeks
For undergraduate students the stipend is as follows: Sophomores receive $5,400.00. Juniors and Seniors receive $8,100.00. Graduate students will receive $10,800.00.
