NIH Postbaccalaureate IRTA Program
 
I know some of you may have some other interests so I am sending you this information.  It is a great opportunity for students who are thinking medicine and PhD.  The experience is great, the salary is good, and the mentorship is superb.  I have several friends who are on staff there and they are very supportive of students.  if you have a lag year or just an interest and you have been out of your BA for two years or less check this out!  Mrs. Wood-Hill
