Association of Academic Physiatrists – Funded summer research and clinical externships in PM&R (Application Deadline 02/01/18)
The Association of Academic Physiatrists is again offering clinical and research opportunities for medical students in summer after Year 1. .
Student applications are now being accepted for the AAP summer research and clinical externships for medical students. Both programs are eight-week summer externships offered to medical students between the first and second year of medical school with an attached stipend of $4,000. Participating students will also have the opportunity to attend Physiatry ’19, the AAP Annual Meeting and present their work from the summer.
For students interested in a clinical-based experience, the Medical Student Summer Clinical Externship (MSSCE) offers the opportunity to see patients while rotating through various PM&R services and to establish mentors in PM&R. This is not a research program.
For students looking to gain research experience, the Rehabilitation Research Experience for Medical Students (RREMS) offers the chance to pursue structured research while working alongside the most successful and respected faculty members in PM&R.
For more information on both programs, email Amy Schnappinger at aschnappinger@physiatry.org. The deadline to apply is February 1, 2018
