BackgroundThe Partners in Research program provides first-hand research experiences for medical, pharmacy, and African-American undergraduate students.MethodsDuring ten weeks, students participate in on-going cancer research, weekly educational sessions, two observational clinic sessions, and at least one patient support-community outreach clinic.ResultsOver the past six years the program has enrolled 155 students. Surveys indicate that most students give the course high ratings and would recommend the course to their peers. Follow-up shows their continued interest in research.ConclusionsThe program will encourage students to pursue careers in cancer research and provide a solid base of knowledge to future health care professionals.
