Each summer the DoS hosts the Surgery Clinical Research Continuum: High School to College Program, a 6-week internship designed for rising seniors. Throughout this period, participants can expect to immerse themselves in 20-25 hours of intensive programming each week. Under the guidance of enthusiastic faculty and medical student mentors, participants will acquire fundamental knowledge crucial for conducting clinical research and comprehending how physicians integrate research into their medical careers. Active participation in ongoing research projects is a key component of the program, with students potentially contributing to studies involving existing clinical data or assisting in clinical trials of new drugs or medical devices.
