12 Mar Medical Student Summer Research Participants Win Big at Research Day 2019
The Medical Student Summer Research Program (MSSRP) has a long history at MCW. The MCW Medical Student and Summer Research Program has been relaunched and renamed as the “Summer Academic programs for Medical Students” or SAMS for short (P is silent). We will retain the MSSRP designation exclusively for research carried out by medical students over the Summer and academic year.
Congratulations to the eleven medical student summer research fellows who were selected from a group of 140 presenters as the top eleven winners of the Dr. Michael J. Dunn Poster Contest Awards, which was held in conjunction with the October 3rd Medical Student Research Day Poster Session. The posters were scored on originality and innovativeness, experimental design and methodology, results and conclusions, and overall impression. Each awardee received a $500 prize.
All posters were well done. There were 99 posters that entered the competition, of which 18 were designated in basic science category, and 81 posters were in the clinical science category. A total of 11 awards (1 basic science and 10 clinical science) were chosen based on the scores from the reviewers.
Please join CTSI in congratulating the eleven medical students who will receive the Dr. Michael J. Dunn Poster Contest Award.
