Additional Information
Comments The annual program provides previously funded Doris Duke investigators the opportunity to foster the next generation of clinical researchers by mentoring a medical student for a year. Through the program, past and present principal investigators on medical research grants from DDCF identify a medical student to mentor for a year and then apply with that student as a team. Alternatively, medical students identify a qualifying DDCF principal investigator and apply together. In either case, the DDCF principal investigator must be the applicant. Each mentee must be willing to take twelve months out from medical school, typically after the third year of school. Teams will receive $70,400 over a year, inclusive of a $30,000 stipend for the student. The student's year out will start in the summer of 2017 and end in the summer of 2018. DDCF expects to make awards to ten mentor/mentee teams in 2017.
