I'm currently a junior living in the Boston area and I'm interested in a medical career. Are there any medical-related internships or opportunities specifically targeting high school students in Boston? Any advice would be super helpful, thanks!
Hi there! It's great that you're exploring your interests in the medical field as a high school student in Boston. There are indeed a few options you could consider for medical-related internships and opportunities.
One popular program to look into is the Harvard Medical School's Project Success, which provides opportunities for local high school students to engage in hands-on research and gain experience in the medical field. Another option is the Biogen Community Lab, which offers a science-focused program called the Summer Exploration Program, designed to expose high school students to careers in biotechnology and life sciences.
You could also explore hospitals in your area, like Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham and Women's Hospital, or Boston Children's Hospital, as they often have internship programs or volunteering opportunities for high school students.
Remember to check each program's requirements and application deadlines. Good luck in your search for the perfect opportunity!
