ASCO Medical Student Rotation for Underrepresented Populations

American Society of Clinical Oncology(ASCO)

The Medical Student Rotation for Underrepresented Populations (MSR) provides financial support for U.S. medical students from populations underrepresented in medicine (UIM) who are interested in oncology as a career to experience a minimum 4-week clinical or clinical research rotation. The oncology rotation can take place in a private practice, hospital, or academic setting, with a focus on either direct patient care or research, provided that the research is clinically oriented.

During the rotation, each participant will have a mentor whose role includes overseeing the student in their rotation as well as providing ongoing academic and career guidance following the rotation experience. Participants may preselect a mentor for their rotation or ask for assistance in arranging a partnership with an ASCO member. Recipients are required to apply with a preselected mentor for their rotation. Applicants without a preselected mentor can request resources to assist in identifying and contacting a prospective mentor by emailing ProfessionalDevelopment@asco.org.

Following the rotation, recipients are required to attend the ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago, IL where they will hear the latest advances in cancer research, participate in a Meet and Greet with ASCO members, and continue to learn about the exciting field of oncology. The Medical Student Rotation award includes a $5,000 stipend for the rotation plus $1,500 for travel to the ASCO Annual Meeting. An additional $2,000 will be provided to support the student's mentor.
