Project Success - Opening the Door to Biomedical Careers Home

Who are we? 

Project Success: Opening the Door to Biomedical Careers is an 4 week summer program for Boston and Cambridge high school students, particularly underrepresented and/or disadvantage students, to participate in paid, mentored, online summer research experience at Harvard Medical School and its affiliated institutions. The program is augmented by seminars and workshops given by faculty and administrators, virtual site visits and career counseling.

This summer our program is permitted to operate as a hybrid program featuring remote and in-person learning. Students will be participating in courses, workshops and mentoring through ZOOM and at Harvard Medical School and affiliated institutions. Although students will not be assigned to a lab, we strive to help them develop the research skills that will be instrumental in their success.

Our Biomedical Journey

Our Goals?

  • To identify, recruit and nurture talented students from Boston and Cambridge, particularly students from groups underrepresented in medicine and/or disadvantaged, who are interested in pursuing biomedical careers.
  • To link students with scientists and physicians. Students will assess their interest in and aptitude for biomedical careers; engage in hands-on research to enhance their technical skills and scientific knowledge; and be encouraged to become critical thinkers.
  • To provide continuing support and resources for students in developing academic and professional career paths.

Orientations: June 28th - June 30th • 9:00 - 5:00 AM
