We are excited to announce a Summer Studentship in collaboration with the British Association of Lung Research (BALR).
This initiative is tailored for basic science or medical undergraduate students, offering a 6 to 8 week research project during the summer months. Students will work with a Principal Investigator on their assignment which will focus on a specific lung condition, such as pulmonary fibrosis, bronchiectasis or pneumonia, or explore cross-Respiratory research.
The student will receive a stipend as well as funding for project expenses and a travel award to showcase their findings at a scientific conference.
This program aims to empower dedicated young researchers with invaluable experience in Respiratory research, fostering potential careers in lung disease research. Additionally, the research community stands to benefit from their valuable insight.
The successful student’s final work will be showcased on our website and newsletter.
If you are a Principal Investigator with a great idea for a summer project and know of a student who would benefit from this amazing opportunity, please direct them to the BALR website for further information. The deadline for applications is Friday 10th May 2024 at 5pm.
We are thrilled to help kickstart a young researcher’s career in lung disease!
