EM Student Research

Each year, the University Carver College of Medicine provides a medical student research program. The purpose of the Student Research Fellowship program is to interest medical students in research and to acquaint them with career possibilities in academic medicine. Students are encouraged, as far as possible, to employ their own initiative in planning and pursuing a research project of their choice. 

The following students have participated in elder abuse research.
