| P1 and P2 students are eligible to apply for the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) Summer Research Exchange Mentorship Program. This is a great opportunity for students who may be interested or curious about pharmacy health outcomes, public health, or practice-based research to learn more and get experience by working with an experienced researcher outside of their school of pharmacy. The program will be virtual. Each year, a cohort of approximately 20-30 students is admitted into the program; of these students, 5 are selected to receive a $2500 scholarship based on merit. Students considering applying to the exchange program should be prepared to commit approximately one hour per week to meeting virtually with their research mentor, with additional time allocated to completion of research activities at the discretion of the mentor. Although not required, the majority of students go on to present the results of their summer projects at national conferences. A final report describing the summer research activities is required for all students. Interested students should complete the program application and upload a copy of their Curriculum Vitae (CV). One letter of recommendation from a home school mentor/advisor is also required; mentors will be contacted with instructions for uploading their letter upon submission of a complete application. The application and all materials must be submitted by March 31, 2023. Program and award decisions will be sent out in early May 2023. Interested students can contact Dr. DeLuca for more information. |
