This summer program exposes students to the unique MSK scientific environment. Medical students, who are between the first and second years of school, work on research projects under the mentorship of MSK faculty members. While pursuing their research activities, students attend programs led by preeminent cancer researchers and innovators in cancer care. In this way, students gain exposure to the rigors of scientific investigation within the context of an academic cancer center, with an emphasis on precision medicine. Launched in 1977, this program has enabled over 1,500 medical students to contribute to the research enterprise of a premier academic medical center. The program aims to enhance the students’ knowledge about cancer and to stimulate research careers in this discipline
