Dear Medical School Faculty and Students,



The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, the world’s largest research hospital, continues the proud tradition of training the next generation of clinician-scientists.  The NIH Medical Research Scholarship Program (MRSP) is a year-long residential professional development program for research-oriented medical, dental, and veterinary students at the NIH intramural campus in Bethesda, MD, as well as its satellite campuses.



The MRSP offers a robust investigational experience through a basic, clinical, or translational research project with an experienced mentor that matches their professional interests.  Focused on helping develop a career in biomedical research, the MRSP year provides students with a dedicated advisor and a vast curriculum of academic activities featuring world-renowned clinician-scientists, networking opportunities, and professional development workshops.  The NIH MRSP has a proven history of launching the next generation of clinician-scientists into highly successful, impactful careers.



The online application for the 2027-2028 academic year opened on SEPTEMBER 1st, 2026.

Medical, Dental, and Veterinary students currently enrolled in their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th years with a strong interest in biomedical research are eligible to apply.

We welcome and encourage applicants from all communities and backgrounds to apply.



Applications must be fully completed and submitted by DECEMBER 1, 2026 at 5:00PM EST.   Students will be notified of their selection to interview by mid-January.

Interviews will take place February 17 & 18, 2027 during a 2-day virtual program that also includes informational sessions.

Notifications of selection for the MRSP Class of 2027-2028 are sent by mid-March.  The class will be finalized shortly thereafter.



The NIH MRSP Team will conduct a live, virtual informational webinar on Thursday, October 8th at 1:00PM (EST).
