Discover a future in biomedical research this summer through the Sir Alexander Fleming Scholars Program. During this 8-week, paid, summer research experience, Fleming Scholars will be guided by senior scientists while working on individual projects in cutting-edge labs. The discoveries made during this program could not only shape your future but also contribute to advancing treatments for human diseases.
During the 8-week summer program, Fleming Scholars will have the opportunity to:
- Perform bench research guided by laboratory mentors
- Attend weekly seminars and professional development workshops
- Participate in social and cultural events
- Write, with the help of their mentor, an abstract summarizing their summer project
- Give a short, formal scientific presentation outlining their research findings
- Attend a celebratory luncheon in honor of their accomplishments
Fleming Scholars will also receive many perks during their time at OMRF, including free breakfast on workdays, free 24-hour gym access, free parking as well as free dormitory-style housing for those that live 40+ miles away from OMRF.
Since 1956, OMRF has been committed to training the next generation of Oklahoma scientists through the Fleming Scholar Program. We hope you will be a part of making history with us as an OMRF Fleming Scholar!
