Primary Care Research Scholars Program

The Primary Care Research Scholars Program (PCRSP) is an optional and funded research program hosted by the Division of General Internal Medicine for students who are considering careers in Primary Care and intending to perform research on campus/site of research in the summer between their M1 and M2 years. It can be completed in addition to the four-week Area of Scholarly Concentration (AOSC) requirement. The application link for PCRSP will go live in February of each year with decisions announced in late March. 

The application consists of (1) a brief supplement consisting of a plan for the PCRSP weeks and a 500-word personal statement and (2) a student's AOSC proposal form (an AOSC requirement) or an alternate research plan for AOSC-exempt students. Students not accepted into our program can opt to have their application forwarded to the Summer Research Scholars Program (SRSP) in time for the final April 3rd deadline.
