Stanford CARE Summer Research Immersion

 


Application deadline: February 5th, 2021.

The Stanford CARE-SRI Program is an immersive 8-week summer program in Data Science and Vulnerable Populations for undergraduate and graduate students, with a focus in Asian Health. This exceptional program leverages the unique aspects of Stanford's world-class research, technology, and medical infrastructure to train learners to become superb population science researchers.

We are looking for a diverse pool of undergraduate and graduate applicants who have strong interest in Asian and public health, in both the sciences and the arts. Prior research is encouraged but NOT required.  We will place students in balanced teams of stats/comp sci and liberal arts, to draw from each other's strengths during the research process.

Additional information:

Students will carry out two research projects throughout the summer: 1) a large database research project focused on precision medicine, and 2) a specific mentored research project with individual faculty. Most students are predicted to submit 1-2 manuscripts for publication to a peer reviewed journal along with their team members. Program content is the equivalent of three undergraduate classes.

The course content aims to facilitate student career development and professional success. We place extra emphasis on mentorship, wellness, and personal career development to ensure that our students have a fulfilling experience that prepares them for careers as scholars in medicine and research.
