Welcome 2022 Summer Scholars
The School of Medicine and Dentistry is excited to welcome the next group of Summer Scholars for 2022! The 27 incoming students make up the largest cohort on record. This year’s group includes students from seven different states, as well as Puerto Rico, representing 15 different universities.
Over the course of the 10 weeks, trainees participate in research/educational seminars and presentations on graduate school and careers, as well as construct a poster outlining their research.
They also get the chance to visit Rochester-area attractions and enjoy various social activities for the chance to interact with graduate students and other summer trainees.
