Undergraduate students join HSC Pulse research training program
We are very excited to welcome undergraduate students from universities across Texas and beyond as part of our first group of student interns in The HSC Pulse: Undergraduate Research Training Program.
During the 10-week program these students will join labs in the College of Biomedical and Translational Science’s Department of Physiology and Anatomy for mentored research experiences focused on cardiovascular health.
While on campus, the student interns will also take part in lab meetings, a special seminar series, peer mentoring, career development activities and will present their research at Summer Student Research Day. All of it geared toward preparing them for further education and careers in healthcare or biomedical science.
The HSC Pulse program is supported by a grant from the American Heart Association. Dr. Paula Gregory, professor of physiology at UNT Health’s College of Biomedical and Translational Sciences was awarded the undergraduate student training grant from AHA and serves as the director of the program.
