Summer Research Internship

Summer Research Internship

Are you ready to explore your future career in academic medicine? SSF is offering a unique internship opportunity that allows participants to work directly with a full-time clinical research physician.   On day one, interns will begin developing a multi-disciplinary research project that enhances their experience in scholarly writing format, academic journal review, statistical comprehension, anatomical analysis, and more. Students will have the opportunity to dissect real human cadaveric specimens, work with the latest technology in a state-of-the-art medical facility, and network with leading physicians, residents, and fellows.

End-of-summer presentations: At the conclusion of their project, students give formal, conference-style presentations describing their research projects at the Swedish Neuroscience Institute's Research Meeting. Attendees of this meeting include partnering neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, surgical fellows and other health professionals who support our research efforts.
