Medical Research

Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà offers the Medical Research elective to allow students to engage in research activities. Motivated students interested in research with a history of strong academic performance may enroll in a 1-2 semester Medical Research elective course. This will allow them to develop a research project under the mentorship of Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà faculty members. 

The research elective course is a two-credit course for students interested in biomedical research. Students will be introduced to the fundamentals of hypothesis, methodologies, and experimentations executed to answer the questions offered to Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà students through exposure to research problems-research questions, test hypotheses, and appropriate analysis of data. The outcome of this research will be presented in the form of a poster and an oral presentation at the Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà Annual Research Conference.
