St. Baldrick's Foundation Summer Fellowships provide stipends for undergraduate, graduate, and medical school students to work in a pediatric oncology setting for one summer. The program is part of the Foundation's childhood cancer research portfolio and its priority of educating new pediatric oncology researchers. Awards are administered through the mentor's institution rather than paid directly to students.
Summer Fellowships belong to the Foundation's Spring Cycle and are funded based on scientific review. Local St. Baldrick's participation also influences Summer Fellow grants. The Foundation's funding categories are recommended by its Scientific Advisors, and hundreds of volunteer experts review applications across its programs. The Foundation's broader mission is to find cures for childhood cancers and help survivors live long, healthy lives.
