Weill Cornell Medicine Summer Research Fellowship 2025

The WCMSRF program at Weill Cornell Medicine is tailored for premedical students who want hands-on research training and exposure to the medical field. The fellowship enables 25-27 students to work closely with faculty on laboratory or clinical research projects, enhancing their investigative abilities for medical school. The educational component addresses public health challenges, including healthcare inequities and the uninsured, while offering practical advice on medical school applications and MCAT preparation. Students benefit from engaging panels with physicians across specialties and diversity-focused admissions leaders providing insights into admissions criteria. Opportunities to shadow physicians complement the research focus, with vaccination protocols in place for safety. The program aims to equip future medical professionals with specialized knowledge and an understanding of healthcare issues impacting underserved communities.
