The Merck-Merial Summer Research Program is open to first and second year veterinary students. Students from veterinary schools other than CSU are also eligible for support from this program.
Positions available and responsibilities We plan to offer at least 7 positions to first and second year veterinary students to participate
in summer research programs in the College for the summer 2008. The student's primary commitment will be to participate in research in a laboratory of a college faculty member. Faculty who are potential mentors and have participated in the program in the past, are listed at the following website: http://www.cvmbs.colostate.edu/Merck-MerialSummerResearchProgram/ResearchAreas.htm; However, not all of these potential mentors may have a position available in their laboratory in the summer of 2008. In addition to the laboratory commitment, students will be expected to participate in a weekly seminar series and present a seminar based on their research experience. The 11 week program will begin on May 19, 2008. Students will receive a stipend of $4,250 for the program.
