AATS Summer Intern Scholarship

The AATS Foundation Summer Intern Scholarship is designed to introduce first or second year medical students enrolled in a North American medical school to the field of cardiothoracic surgery. Candidates must submit a letter of support provided by the host sponsor (sponsor must be a member of the AATS) and a one-page project outline of what the candidate hopes to accomplish during the eight weeks. The outline must specify the proposed exposure to cardiothoracic surgery to be undertaken, including an aspect of both laboratory and clinical experience. No more than two students from a single institution may be awarded the scholarship.
