Please join the Epidemiology Student Assoication (ESA) and the Epidemiology Department Task Force on Anti-Racism and Racial Justice for our upcoming panel: "Building an Anti-Racist Health Community". The panel will be held on Wednesday, November 18th from 12-1pm. Please register for the event here.
We are pleased to announce our distinguished panelists: Dr. Norris, Dr. Hayes-Bautista, and Dr. Hodge. Our panelist will discuss the impact of racism and systems of oppression on marginalized communities' health and well-being and how epidemiology, health sciences, and health policy should respond. Further, the speakers will discuss how public health education, research, and practice can align with anti-racism and social justice. Specifically, our panelists will highlight insights and successes from their work with African American/Black, Latinx, and Native American communities. Please submit any questions ahead of time to this Google Form: https://forms.gle/XZx9X2VoqCE6dYk67 We look forward to seeing you there! Sincerely, ESA and the Epidemiology Department Task Force on Anti-Racism and Racial Justice

To prospective BSRP 2021 participants:
The application for our 2021 cohort is open. Though we are planning to hold an on-site experience, we are monitoring the impacts of COVID-19 and will transition to virtual programming if necessary. About The Broad Summer Research Program (BSRP) is an intensive nine-week summer research opportunity designed for undergraduates with a commitment to biomedical research and an interest in genomics. BSRP has a strong record of success in helping students to nurture their passion for research and succeed in graduate school and scientific careers. Students spend the summer performing original computational or experimental-based research in labs across the Broad's research areas, from cancer to infectious disease to computational biology. At the program's conclusion, students deliver oral and poster presentations on their research projects. BSRP features a rich curriculum outside the lab that emphasizes communication, collaborative problem-solving, graduate school preparation, and demystifying scientific careers. Our curriculum includes an intensive scientific communication course, seminars with leading scientists from Harvard and MIT, a GRE prep course, and weekly workshops focused on the graduate school application process, professional and personal development, and diversity and inclusion in the sciences. Benefits
BSRP is funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) to help increase diversity in the sciences. The program is open to students with a demonstrated commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion in STEM disciplines. Students from groups that are underrepresented in the sciences are especially encouraged to apply. These groups include Native Americans or Alaska Natives, Blacks or African Americans, Asians or Asian Americans, Hispanics or Latinxs, Native Hawaiians or Other Pacific Islanders, as well as individuals with disabilities.

The UndocuBruins Research Program guides undocumented AAP students in their junior or senior year to develop research experience and their graduate school goals. Participants undertake a research project under the guidance of a graduate mentor and a faculty mentor. UndocuBruins will also develop their graduate school applications- curriculum vita, draft personal and professional statements, learn how to obtain strong letters of recommendation, etc. Students who are interested in graduate school and who would like to learn about how to conduct academic research are strongly encouraged to apply. Eligibility CriteriaUndocuBruins applicants must be:
