Dear
Colleagues,
The

Medicine will again host the Summer
Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) program. The SURF program
provides a wide variety of summer research opportunities for undergraduate
students interested in careers in medicine or biomedical research. Participants
in this program work in an active research lab under the guidance of a
biomedical science faculty member. The goal is to expose students to the
challenges, excitement and satisfaction of research.
The
SURF program is 7
weeks in length and includes room & board, a living allowance, 8 quarter
hours of biology credit and the potential for a guaranteed interview for the
entering class at the medical school.
Detailed
information, eligibility requirements, and application materials can be
obtained by going to the SURF web site at
www.oucom.ohiou.edu/surfprog.htm
. The deadline for application is February 1,
2009.
Please
encourage your students to take advantage of this tremendous opportunity. If
you have any questions about the program, please contact the OU-COM Admissions
Office at 800-345-1560.
