The 2020 INSIGHT Summer Research Program is an NIH-funded, eight week paid summer internship through the University of Washington at Harborview’s Injury Prevention and Research Center (HIPRC). Students in our program are matched to clinical research projects and partner with a UW Medicine & Health Sciences Faculty. Students get to meet and learn from peers and health professionals from across the country, and also get to participate in clinical shadowing, social activities and tours, including the King County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Bringing together a diverse group of young people interested in health care and research allows HIPRC to create a unique and rich resource for students who seek to learn more about what they can accomplish in the fields of medicine, public health and research. The INSIGHT Program offers a $3,200 stipend to those accepted, and all majors are encouraged to apply.
Below follows our website, where interested students can find our application portal and all the details of the program:
