The Department of Pharmacology & Therapeutics isĀ fundraising for an important initiative,Ā The Melville Undergraduate Research Bursary in Pharmacology, in honour of former chair, Dr. Kenneth Melville.
In the spirit of Dr. Melvilleās legacy, the Department of Pharmacology & Therapeutics established an Undergraduate Research Bursary that will provide funding for a paid summer research internship to an undergraduate student from anĀ underrepresented equity group. The supervising professor and the Faculty of Medicineās Social Accountability and Community Engagement Office will provide a formal mentorship program for the student. This research experience combined with mentorship will increase the students' competitiveness for careers in science.Ā
