START@Yale

The START@Yale Program for the summer of 2022 will be in-person and includes orientation, lab experiences, research, journal clubs, didactic activities, and a final symposium. START@Yale is appropriate for those with substantial research experience, as well as those with little or no prior experience in biomedical research. The overarching goal of START@Yale remains to encourage interest in physician-scientist careers among entering medical students. The hybrid model of programming will introduce our newest students to the extraordinary range of outstanding science at YSM.
