Since 1989, the University of Minnesota LSSURP has offered life sciences research programs for undergraduate students who have a goal of enrolling in Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D programs. LSSURP is supported by the University of Minnesota Medical School. The programs begin with a joint orientation weekend, followed by participation in a 10-week research project under the direction of a University of Minnesota faculty mentor and numerous special activities focused on professional development as well as social interaction. The summer research experience concludes with a poster symposium and banquet in August.
