Thank you for referring so many wonderful students interested in PhD and
MD/PhD training opportunities through the NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars
Program to our recent conference calls.

Due to high demand and maxed out attendance on previous telephone conference
calls, we have scheduled an additional call for December 5, 2007 at 8:00pm
(EST) for those who wish to learn about funded PHD and MD/PhD training
through the NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars Program. We will also discuss
applying for summer internship and post baccalaureate positions at the NIH.

If you have additional students in mind to learn about these opportunities,
we encourage you to have them register for the December 5th telephone
conference call. Instructions for registering for the call are below.

Thank you.

Sam Day - NIH/Cambridge Scholar 2005 University of Arizona 
"Things are great! I've just finished my first manuscript, which we are
planning to submit to Nature Medicine! Also, next month I'm giving a
presentation at the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
(ISMRM) annual meeting in Berlin. Not too bad for my first 1.5 years of
graduate school... the model for fast-tracking willing students is a good
one, and I hope that it sets the standard for a paradigm shift with regards
to graduate education in the USA."

Bhooma Avaramuthan - NIH/Oxford and Marshall Scholar 2005 Michigan State
University 
"I came into the NIH/Oxford program already having accepted an MSTP offer
from Wash U St Louis. I am pursuing my PhD/DPhil at Oxford and will then do
my medical training at Wash U. The program has given me the flexibility for
my medical and research training I've needed."

Jon Roiser - NIH/Cambridge Scholar 2002 University of Cambridge
"For me, the Scholars Program was unique in providing the opportunity to
work in two first class laboratories, learning both different techniques to
investigate brain function, and complementary approaches to understand the
root causes of mental illness. As a result of the program, I was able to
secure a post-doctoral position in a leading center in neuroscience research
in London, which has subsequently led to a faculty position in just two
years. This is without doubt due to the high-quality training and teaching I
received during the NIH/Oxford Cambridge Scholars Program."

Julia James - NIH/Oxford and Rhodes Scholar 2005 Hobart and William Smith
Colleges 
"I came from a chemistry background and the NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars
Program allowed me to learn immunology quickly and become deeply immersed in
HIV vaccine research both in the Weatherall Institute for Molecular Medicine
at Oxford and the Vaccine Research Center at NIH. I have enthusiastic and
dedicated mentors that share my goal of having an impact on the global AIDS
epidemic."

Stephen Huffaker - NIH/Cambridge Scholar 2002 University of Wisconsin
"I was able to complete my Ph.D. in the NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars
Program in a little over 3 years and discovered a series of new genes in
familial schizophrenia. I then decided to obtain my M.D. to continue my
research in neuropsychiatry. I received full funding from the program and
I'm now a second year student at Harvard Medical School. I had the
opportunity to give a talk at the annual Harvard MD/PhD retreat last October
and was pleased at the response (my favorite comment afterwards was about
how the NIH-Oxford-Cambridge program was the all the buzz and is becoming
"the top of the heap")."
