We would like to request your participation in a unique venture involving Science and Society to train our future Scientists, Doctors and Engineers; and furthering a dialogue with our communities.

The High School students are selected based on their motivation, enthusiasm and performance at school, recommendations from their principal & science teachers, and the interview during the selection process. They are inducted as interns in Laboratories at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Cornell, Columbia University, NYU, Beth Israel Medical Center, Fordham University, Stevens Institute of Technology, etc. The duration of the program lasts for 8 weeks in Summer and an After-School Program. Last year there were ~50 student in over 17 institutions all over the tri-state area. Past students successfully participated & competed in several regional & national science conferences & competitions all over the country – around the Tri-state area, Chicago, San Diego, Colorado, etc, presenting their work with full self-confidence and excellent presentation, winning in numerable regional and national awards including the ‘New York Times Scholarship’. They developed a sense of responsibility & commitment towards completion of their work and projects. Some of our past students have since joined leading universities like Penn State, Swarthmore, Cornell, Dartmouth, and Seven year combined Medical School program at UMDNJ, and others. All of the students have expressed an intense interest in the pursuit of research and education in sciences & medicine. One of the program highlights is the SECOND ‘ Harlem Science Street Fair & Festival’ to be held in September.

We urge your participation in this Fascinating and Extremely Rewarding venture, involving a direct participation with our society at large.
