The Gates Summer Internship Program (GSIP)


HISTORY

Inspired by years of positive experiences with summer interns in Gates laboratories, Drs.Tamara Terzian, Neil Box and Enrique Torchia  thoughtfully conceived an official internship program to inspire outstanding young college undergraduates to pursue careers in stem cell biology and regenerative medicine.

Their hope and initiative proved to be a great catalyst, inspiring the heartfelt and generous support of Gates Institute friends Rhondda and Peter Grant, whose 2014 gift enabled the launch of the GSIP program in 2015 with 12 students.

Since its inception, GSIP has attracted increased and widespread visibility, ignited professional careers, gained additional supporters and become a signature of Gates Institute's educational efforts.

PROGRAM INFORMATION

A committee of Gates Institute faculty and staff will select highly qualified undergraduates to work full-time in laboratories located at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.
