Abstract: The NIDA Summer Research Internship Program introduces undergraduate students to substance abuse and addiction research through internships with NIDA grantees at universities across the United States and Puerto Rico, with a goal of enhancing the number of underrepresented minorities in biomedical research. Students intern with NIDA principal investigators for eight weeks during the summer. For many of these interns, it was their first research experience and the exposure to novel and state-of-the-art science was invaluable. This opportunity has served as an introduction to the research process for many STEM students and provided the hands-on experience needed when considering a career in biomedical research.

Short Statement: The program no longer accepts high school students due to the new NIH High School Summer Internship Program Policy (see Attachment 2), so the minimum age requirement had to be adjusted to 18 years old. The new policy requires an on-site coordinator as well as other requirements in order to provide internships to minors, which we cannot guarantee, thus the minimum age requirement for program eligibility program has been adjusted to 18 years old.
