Cayman Biomedical Research Institute (CABRI) is accepting applications for undergraduate students who have been offered an unpaid laboratory research position from an accredited PI. All applications will be accepted until the deadline, September 20, 2020. Grants awarded range from $2,000 - $5,000.
“Because the research positions available to undergraduates do not typically come with a stipend, access to this important experience is limited to students who can afford to work without pay,” said Dr. Kirk Maxey, President and CEO of Cayman and President of CABRI. “Our grant is intended to expand access to this opportunity for more individuals whose early research training will set them on a lifelong path of scientific discovery. Also, we recognize that amid a global pandemic support for these students is even more crucial.”
CABRI is a 501(c)3 nonprofit affiliate of Cayman and is dedicated to supporting research for new treatments for rare cancers, orphan diseases, and genetic defects. Special consideration is afforded to applications from students that work in laboratories aligning with this mission. Undergraduate grant applications may be submittedhere.
