The Appalachian Gerontology Experiences: Advancing Diversity in Aging Research Scholars Program reminds faculty and students that the application deadline for the 2022 AGE-ADAR Summer Research Program is Saturday (Jan. 15). 

Selected students will be paid a stipend to learn about research on aging and health disparities in Appalachia. The program, funded by the National Institute on Aging, prepares underrepresented students in MSTEM fields for a future career in health or research. 

Opportunities are opened to rising sophomores and juniors to participate in the six-week summer research internship. 

Find more information about this program and the team led by P.I. Julie Hicks Patrick and the link to apply.
