FRSQ (Fonds de la Recherche en santé) - USRA (Undergraduate Research Award) 2010

The FRSQ USRA is a summer program designed to stimulate an interest in research on the part of students enrolled in a university undergraduate program, in medicine or another health science, by offering them a summer study program carried out in a laboratory environment.
 
If you have any doubts as to what constitutes health science or health services (health geography? medical physics? etc.) I would suggest you contact Ms Erin Grainger in the Fellowships Office for clarification, rather than assuming the programme is not for you / your students. Her contact information is at the bottom of this message.
 
Please refer to the link below for the McGill webpage for students; more details about the programme can be found on the FRSQ webpage.
