All Dartmouth College graduate students and Geisel School of Medicine students are eligible to apply for the Hitchcock Foundation Student Research Award.
The purpose of this award is to recognize academic excellence, increase awareness of research opportunities, encourage students to enter the field of biomedical research, and reward the best project with a cash prize.
The award is designed to support a graduate or medical student's research project. Graduate and medical students, working in conjunction with an established faculty investigator at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center or Dartmouth College, are invited to apply.
The nature and duration of the award should be structured to meet the individual needs of both the student and faculty advisor. The award of up to $1,500 is for the purchase of equipment and/or supplies, and for such other authorized expenses as may be necessary to carry out this project. The award winner will receive a $500 cash prize and may also apply for an additional supplemental award of up to $500 to cover expenses to present the results of the research at a national meeting.
