Description
The Hitchcock Foundation Student Research Award supports biomedical research by medical and PhD students working with an established faculty investigator at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center or Dartmouth College. Its goals are to recognize academic excellence, increase awareness of research opportunities, encourage students to enter biomedical research, and reward the best project with a cash prize.
The award supports research during an elective period. Projects may be completed entirely during that period or may finish work begun earlier in a student's career at Geisel. The nature and duration of the project should meet the individual needs of the student and faculty advisor. Support covers research expenses and presentation of results at a national meeting.
