SRIP Alumni Achievements
The Summer Research Internship Program (SRIP) gives undergraduate and post-baccalaureate students hands-on research experience in labs across UVA School of Medicine. Below, we highlight SRIP alumni who have gone on to present their research at national conferences, publish findings, or receive awards and recognition in their fields — a snapshot of the program’s impact beyond the summer itself.
