The Faculty of Medicine Multidisciplinary Research Program in Medicine aims to facilitate and fund interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research at UBC, by providing undergraduate students with an opportunity to undertake a summer research project supervised by a cross-faculty pair of researchers.
Faculty of Medicine faculty interested in submitting a project can apply by January 24, 2024.
Research projects require one Faculty of Medicine supervisor and one co-supervisor from another faculty. Applications should be submitted in research pairs and supervisors should search for a partner capable of providing specific research expertise. Finding a research partner is the responsibility of the supervisor.
If successful, supervisors will receive up to three students, two non-MD undergraduate students (in their second year or higher) for 16 weeks and one optional first-year MD student for 8-weeks. Student applications will open in February, 2024.
