    MHI Undergraduate Summer Research Program

    As cardiovascular researchers, one of our most essential responsibilities is to function as mentors and offer opportunities to inspire impactful careers regardless of race, ancestry, sex, gender, or socioeconomic background. One of the most effective mechanisms to promote equity in research careers is undergraduate summer programs focused on underrepresented students. For the past six years, MHI has provided research environments for over 100 undergraduates from diverse backgrounds, many of which matriculated to STEM careers, graduate school, or medical school. To inspire underrepresented students toward careers in cardiovascular research, we designed MHI SUMMER, a program that encompasses research, mentoring, and career development.

    Five undergraduates will be selected for the MHI SUMMER program. The program consists of a 10-week mentored cardiovascular research project that addresses an important scientific question. The MHI-SUMMER students will interact with lab members in their respective labs daily and meet with their mentors weekly.

    In addition to working in a research lab, the MHI SUMMER students will attend sessions that cover responsible and safe research conduct, a weekly journal club to discuss and learn about cardiovascular science, and a career development series. The program concludes with attending the Basic Cardiovascular Sciences Scientific Sessions in Baltimore 2025.

    USC URM Summer Radiology Research Program

    USC Department of Radiology (DOR) is launching the 2025 Underrepresented in Medicine (URM) Summer Radiology Research Scholarship Program with a goal of increasing the future representation of URMs in medicine, specifically radiology, and scientific research. In this 6-week program, participants will engage in mentored individual research projects and benefit from additional opportunities, including didactic lectures, hands-on skills workshops, and clinical shadowing. Participants will receive a $3,000 scholarship.
