Research
Interested medical students can participate in academic research with a Pediatric faculty member. This can be a formal ISP or Capstone project, or a more informal experience for a student looking for additional exposure to the field. If you are interested in connecting with a faculty member on a research project, please contact Dr. Cannavino (ccannavino@health.ucsd.edu)
