Each year, 90-100 undergraduate students from around the United States come to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., to work beside both young and established scientists on a broad range of biomedical research questions. A limited number of fellowships are also available at the Mayo Clinic campuses in Jacksonville, Florida and Scottsdale, Arizona. You can apply for the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program if you: Are a student currently in your sophomore or junior year at a U.S. college or university, have a grade point average of at least 3.0 (4.0 scale), and are seriously considering a biomedical research career as a Ph.D. or M.D.-Ph.D. International students who are attending a U.S. college or university are eligible to apply.

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship Program award is $5000 (minus taxes) for 10 weeks. From this stipend, students are responsible for their own travel, housing and meals. Most students live together in a convenient summer student housing area which costs about $150/week.

For questions, contact Glenda Mueller at gmueller@mayo.edu or (507) 284-3862 or visit: http://www.mayo.edu/mgs/surf.html

The program begins June 1, 2009 and ends August 7, 2009.
