Summer High School Internship Program

About the Program

The Summer High School program at Barrow Neurological Institute is a 5-week internship program offered to active High School students from any national school. Students in the program work part-time in a Barrow laboratory or supporting department under the mentorship of our faculty, scientists, clinicians, or managers, actively participating in groundbreaking research, technology, and methodology. Students will also engage in weekly seminars and workshops where they can meet and hear from various specialists at Barrow. At Barrow Neurological Institute, we strive for top-tier, long-lasting mentorship, providing the students with the tools they need to succeed in their career journey.
