BSCD Quantitative Biology Summer Fellowship

BSCD Quantitative Biology fellowship combines research using computational methods into a range of biological problems with a collaborative environment for learning new skills and concepts.

The BSCD Summer Innovation Fellowships consist of thematic research programs in a variety of fields.  For some fellowships, you apply with an identified research mentor and project, and for other fellowships you are matched with a mentor and project.

Complete program descriptions and application instructions for each individual program will be available on Handshake.
