2024 Stanford Bio-X Undergraduate Summer Research Program Applications

The Bio-X Undergraduate Summer Research Program (USRP) provides an immersive ten-week full-time hands-on experience in the lab that is enhanced by weekly faculty talks, workshops, and other events, creating a supportive community helping to develop our students into scientific researchers. All levels of research experience are welcome! We highly encourage first-time researchers who have not had hands-on lab experience and students from underrepresented groups in STEM fields to apply.

Over 850 undergraduate students have participated in the Bio-X USRP since 2006. Many of our alumni have gone on to pursue a PhD or MD, published in high-impact journals, received prestigious awards, and accepted exciting positions in industry. Some have started their own companies and/or have become faculty members at numerous institutions including Stanford. Countless participants have indicated that the Bio-X USRP experience changed the course of their time at Stanford and influenced their future careers.
