Rusyniak Memorial Medical Student Research Fellowship in Neurosurgery

The Rusyniak Memorial Medical Student Research Fellowships are designed to allow medical students to engage in clinical or translational research with mentorship by a UR Neurosurgery faculty member. The Rusyniak Research Fellowship awards are funded by an endowment established within the Department of Neurosurgery, and recognize the commitment of Dr. W. George Rusyniak to the education and inspiration of medical students with interests in neurological surgery. Year-long fellowships of up to $30,000 are also available to interested medical students with a demonstrated record of productive research in Neurosurgery who plan to spend a year out of medical school pursuing a research project with a UR Neurosurgery faculty mentor.
