The National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded Student Urinary Tract Program in Education and Research (SUPER) Summer Training Program is for undergraduate, graduate and medical students interested in research and clinical experiences. The SUPER Summer Training Program is designed to attract a talented pool of trainees to the fields of nephrology and urology. This competitive program can fill key training gaps, increase the pediatric nephrology and urology workforce, and ultimately improve patient care through new clinical experiences and research opportunities that accelerate scientific discoveries. Participants in this 10-week summer program will: (A) increase their understanding of urinary tract development, physiology and disease pathogenesis, (B) enhance their knowledge in the basic skills required to be a successful biomedical researcher, (C) be immersed in a research project where they develop a hypothesis and generate data that result in an abstract and poster presentation and (D) have exposure to multidisciplinary careers focused on nephrology and urology.
