| In
a partnership of the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), the Foundation
for the National Institutes of Health, and the National Institue
of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), a Biomedical
Engineering Summer Internship Program (BESIP) is being offered
at the NIH. This ten week summer program (June
6
through
August
12, 2005), formerly sponsored
by the Whitaker Foundation, allows undergraduate
biomedical engineering students to participate, under the mentorship
of world class scientists in cutting edge biomedical research
projects
in NIH laboratories in Bethesda, Maryland. Please note: the BESIP is
separate program from the NIH Summer
Internship Program (SIP) in Biomedical Research.
Selected by a nationwide competition, the twelve to sixteen interns will have the opportunity to indicate preferences from a list of available NIH projects that involve areas of engineering or physical science expertise. The students will participate in group meetings, attend planned lectures and laboratory visits, and be encouraged to submit posters to the NIH Poster Day where summer interns from all disciplines present their projects. A listing of the projects that were offered last year can be found at Projects 2003. See the 2002 Interns hard at work in the 2002 Photo Album. View a listing of interns and their mentors for the Class of 2003, Class of 2002, Class of 2001, Class of 2000, and theClass of 1999. |
