PVAMU/XULA/BCM Summer Prostate Cancer Research Program

Abstract

The goal of the project is to provide summer research experiences in prostate cancer and a series of ancillary activities to 6 students with the goal of interesting them in careers in prostate cancer and to prepare them for graduate school/medical and subsequent careers in prostate cancer. We successfully recruited two students from PVAMU and four from XULA for the summer research program. Students participated in research experiences, seminars, workshops, and supplementary activities. Outgoing interviews confirmed that the program was a valuable experience for the students and that the students would recommend the program to other students.
