UW Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine (ISCRM) - UW Bothell Summer Research Program

UW Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine (ISCRM) UW Bothell Undergraduate Summer Research program is a competitive fellowship intended to enhance the educational experience of an undergraduate student at UW Bothell while they are engaged in research guided by UW ISCRM faculty. We hope that with this research fellowship, a student may focus more attention and time, deepening their inquiry into a discipline and project with a reduced financial burden. In 2025, three students will receive a $6,000 award to pursue research in a discipline pertaining to regenerative medicine. The majority of previous fellows have received further funding (Mary Gates Scholarship, Washington Research Fellowship etc.) to continue their research.
ISCRM is located in Seattle’s South Lake Union. Please go to this link to see the kinds of research that is done at ISCRM. It is a phenomenal place—beautiful, state-of-the-art, filled with energetic, amazing, inspiring scientists. Soon, you might be there too!!
