The students will work full-time for 8 weeks during the summer, learning research and technical skills and conducting laboratory studies. Interns will also participate in career development and research skills workshops. Students begin their 8-week internship on June 1, 2026, completing their work on July 24, 2026. The focus of the SNPRC program is to provide the interns with one-on-one, hands-on experience within the SNPRC. The program will provide an opportunity for interns to gain veterinary experience and/or conduct research and develop applied research skills involving non-human primates. Upon completion of this program, interns will be equipped with solid skills and experience that will better enable them to successfully pursue graduate studies in veterinary and/or biomedical fields.
