The Division of Newborn Medicine at Children’s
Hospital has an Undergraduate Summer Program,
running late May to late August. Typically the
applicants are pre-meds from US colleges, and
they are selected by a faculty committee of
participating investigators. Applicants are very
competitive and up to 15 are selected every year.
The length of the program is 8 weeks. Students do
research in the lab. No financial support other than
a token stipend is provided ($2,000). Non US
citizens can apply, but they are not eligible for the
stipend. If a Greek student is interested, we will
secure the stipend from other sources. It is also
conceivable that the length of training may be
extended for more than 8 weeks.

Our lab works on skeletal muscle molecular
physiology, specifically on acquired damage
tolerance. We study heat shock proteins (HSP)and
MAPKs following downhill running primarily in
mice, although also some in humans. We are
uncovering the changes in the HSP and MAPK
regulatory pathways as a function of exercise,
exercise bout number and gender. Our primary
tools are quantitative immunoblots, qRT-PCR and
some RNAi. Experience with elementary
biochemical and/or molecular biological
techniques is needed.
