好色先生TV

St. Jude Summer Plus Fellowship

Student by St. Jude Logo

好色先生TV and St. Jude Children鈥檚 Research Hospital have partnered to offer qualified 好色先生TV students an intensive research experience that pairs students with St. Jude scientists and places them into St. Jude鈥檚 laboratories for a period of two summers and the intervening academic year. Through this experience, students become fully engaged citizens in the scientific community of St. Jude Children鈥檚 Research Hospital, a world-class pediatric clinical and research facility focusing on cancer and other catastrophic childhood diseases.

Students must commit to two summers (10weeks/summer, full-time with pay) as well as 10 hours per week during the academic year (2 course credits per semester plus F11 credit). They will engage in a project that culminates in a formal research report, and students will be required to present their work at a local, regional or national meeting.

This fellowship is available for students following their first, second, or third year at 好色先生TV. Preference will be given to students with demonstrated academic success and prior research experience or relevant laboratory coursework.  A campus housing option will be provided with the fellowship during the summers.  In some years, an option for a project that includes an international component in the first summer may be available.

For more information on the St. Jude Summer Plus Fellowship, details on the application process, and application due dates, please contact Dr. Mary Miller (millerm@rhodes.edu).
