The application for the 2022 AGE-ADAR Summer Research Program is still open for underrepresented students in MSTEM fields who are preparing for a future career in health or research.
Funded by the National Institute on Aging, the Appalachian Gerontology Experiences: Advancing Diversity in Aging Research Scholars Program provides rising sophomores and juniors with training in research on aging and health disparities in Appalachia.
Selected students will receive a stipend for the six-week summer internship, which runs from May 16 through June 24.
Interested students are encouraged to apply immediately via the program website as the review process will begin in February.
