" The University of Maryland School of Medicine sponsors a number of summer
research programs for under-represented minority students both on our campus
in Baltimore and at several foreign sites.  The programs "at home" are
sponsored by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (5
positions) and the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (24 positions)
while the international programs (20 positions)are sponsored by the Fogarty
International Center and take place in the West Indies, Brazil, Chile and
soon in China.  These programs provide stipends ranging from $800 to $1,000
per month plus travel and housing allowances  and in some cases cultural
awareness and language lessons (foreign).

Applications are generally accepted on a rolling basis and awards made when
acceptable applications are complete.  Deadlines are a guideline for receipt
of applications.  If you are in doubt, please inquire.  You may reach us at
the Office of Student Research (osr@medschool.umaryland.edu).  All
information and application material is available on-line at our website
