Description
The Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) supports high-achieving medical and science students through early research experience in nuclear medicine, molecular imaging, and targeted radionuclide therapy. The program introduces these fields as potential career paths before students select a residency or during their first two years of graduate school. It responds to expanding technologies and the need for trained physicians and scientists, while addressing students’ often-late exposure to nuclear medicine.
Students undertake a research project of their choosing, define objectives, and develop research skills for their careers. Any area of molecular medical and science imaging research is eligible, including clinical investigation, drug or device development, comparative effectiveness, basic research, quality improvement, artificial intelligence, and imaging informatics.
