Dear Pre-Health/Pre-Med Advisor,
I am writing to you to inform you of the Research Associate
Internship opportunity we have available at NYU Ronald O. Perelman Department
of Emergency Medicine for Fall 2018 – Spring 2019. I’ve included a description of our program and the application process
below. We are excited to offer this opportunity to all interested pre-health,
pre-med and post-baccalaureate students and encourage them to apply. Please note we are actively recruiting for Bi-Lingual
English/Spanish-speaking interns in addition to non-Spanish speaking interns.
Please
forward the following information about the Research Associate Internship
program at NYU to any students that may be interested in gaining experience in
clinical research. Thank you for your time, we look
forward to working with you!
About
the program:
The
Research Associate (RA) Internship is an innovative volunteer program for
enthusiastic and inspired college and post-baccalaureate students. Created by
the Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine, the internship grants
students an opportunity to experience and observe multiple aspects of clinical
research. The program consists of clinical and non-clinical research shifts
based in the Emergency Department. The program offers the committed student a
unique experience to furnish a wealth of knowledge about the numerous options
for a career in healthcare. This school-year long or summer intensive unpaid
research internship will expose participants to a diverse spectrum of clinical
research investigations occurring in the Emergency Departments of Bellevue
Hospital Center, NYU Langone Medical Center, and NYU Lutheran.
RA
interns will develop basic research skills and become an integral part of
research projects and grants occurring through the Ronald O. Perelman
Department of Emergency Medicine. They will be taught how to collect and enter
data, and maintain databases. RA interns will participate in laboratory
meetings and gain Principal Investigator mentorship and/or shadowing
experiences. RA interns will also become oriented to the Institutional Review
Board and other Human Subjects courses. This experience permits RA interns to
be exposed to new and innovative research, and develop a comprehensive
understanding of clinical research.
Commitment:
The
RA Internship is a demanding program and requires a great deal of commitment on
the part of the student. Fall-Spring RA interns can expect to work at least
two, four-hour clinical shifts and one, two-hour non-clinical shift per week
for a total of 10 hours per week during the length of the school year. RA
interns are also expected to attend study meetings when new research studies
are starting in the ED.
Shifts
take place each day of the week, including weekends, in four-hour time blocks.
The first shift is 8am-12pm, and the last is 8pm-12am.
Thank
you,
Michelle
