Now you know all about how to conduct research in the high school and how to reach out to the professors and researchers when ready to purse your high school research internship.
To further help you look for established biomedical research opportunities, we have compiled a list of these internships and research opportunities state by state. Not all available resources might be listed but we have made an effort to include major internships available by the state.
