Post-Baccalaureate Schaufeld Scholars Program
-
The Schaufeld Program is recruiting post-baccalaureate students interested in pursuing 1-2 years of full time, laboratory- or public health-based research on prostate cancer. This position is optimal for students seeking a post-undergraduate research experience before pursuing a higher degree in medical school or graduate school. Students will choose a mentor from among the many faculty at Johns Hopkins studying prostate cancer and join their research team.
-
The ideal candidate is a current senior or recent college graduate with a record of successful completion of introductory biology and/or other science courses in college, and has a commitment to and record of inclusionary conduct in work, educational and social contexts; work in health disparities; and/or having a sincere desire to serve populations affected by societal inequities, including underrepresented groups. Members of underrepresented or educationally-disadvantaged groups are encouraged to apply.
