Students may, by special arrangement, elect to undertake research experience with any member of the UB faculty. Rotations may extend for periods of one to several modules as long as the student’s schedule will allow. The value of the research, its goals, design, techniques, etc., are to be arranged by the student and his or her faculty preceptor.
Prior to registering for a research elective, students will need to meet with Dr. David Milling, senior associate dean for medical education, regarding project and work with the department to find a faculty mentor. Students should discuss project ideas with their mentor and provide a short description of the research they would like to conduct during the elective. Students will then take this description to the department chair and/or course director for approval.
