Paid program to generate excitement for a future career in cancer research in highly motivated undergraduates and help them prepare for the next stage of their careers.

Offers a stipend of 650 Euros (per month for up to three months) to conduct research in Germany over the summer.

A 10-week intensive, hands-on research experience for undergraduate students with the goal of exposing students to different types of cancer research.

10-week long summer program that gives students the opportunity to participate in hypothesis-driven independent research at Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC in Roanoke, Virginia.

Simon Schwoerer

P.I. willing to mentor undergraduate research volunteers and work study students interested in metabolism and the tumor microenvironment, with a focus on understanding the metabolic control of cell plasticity and function.

Steve Kron

Opportunity for students to get research experience in the Kron lab.

The Kron lab has hosted over sixty undergraduates to date, mostly from the College. Students in the College can pursue research projects through the year or over the summer. Long-term projects are expected to lead to presentations and publications. While projects are typically collaborative with senior members of the lab, they are often independent. We are most interested in bringing on first and second year students, although some prior research experience is better. Third year students looking for Honors thesis projects are also welcome. If you are curious, take a look at our recent publications (kron sj on PubMed) and our web site before contacting us.
