Intership & Opporutunities

We strive to mentor and inspire the next generation of scientists and researchers. Be a part of the groundbreaking research.

Tauber Family Student Internship

Established in 2013 by Shelley and Joel Tauber, the Tauber Family Student Internship was inspired by the educational journey of their granddaughter, who furthered her studies in medical school and is now a resident in pediatrics.

This salaried 10-week summer program allows undergraduate students to dip their toes in and experience cutting-edge research. After being chosen through an application process, each Tauber Family Intern is paired up with a NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies researcher who will serve as their mentor. In addition to hands-on training in various biomedical research techniques, with the help of their mentor, students develop their own research projects.

Many past recipients have progressed to successful careers in graduate school, medical school, and other Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) careers.

Undergraduate Research Program

The NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies also offers internships on a rolling basis to undergraduate students from the University of Michigan, as well as other institutions. These students have the opportunity to work side-by-side with our faculty and researchers in hypothesis generation, hands-on practice in the wet laboratory, and reporting how research can impact the scientific community. The amount of hours spent in the laboratory ranges from 10-15 hours per week during the school year to 30-40 hours per week in the spring and summer. Interns can receive class credit for their time in the lab.

I greatly appreciate the support I’ve received from the Tauber Family. My experience has advanced my growth as a scientist and future medical professional. Dr. Feldman's lab is set apart by its supportive and inclusive environment fostered by the staff. This was particularly helpful in writing my senior honors thesis that received high honors, which would not have been possible without the backing of the PNR&D [now NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies] team.
