7 introducing Summer Research Fellowship ProgramMayo Clinic introducing Summer Research Fellowship Program The Summer Research Fellowship was created to address the need for clinical investigators from diverse backgrounds. Health needs of U.S. minority populations have been studied inadequately, due in part to the shortage of clinical investigators belonging to underrepresented groups. Although the number of clinicians belonging to underrepresented groups has increased, there has not been a corresponding increase in clinical investigators. Students often believe the choice between clinical medicine and research is an "either/or" decision. This unfortunate misperception is not true for patient-oriented clinical research.

Many questions fall at the interface between basic and applied research, within the area of clinical research studies. The Summer Research Fellowship was created through grants from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and Mayo Clinic.
