Dana-Farber CURE-RAI Program

Program Description: Students pursuing research related careers attending college outside of the state of Massachusetts are highly encouraged to apply to the CURE-RAI program at the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center in Boston, MA. This is a competitive, 11-week, paid summer cancer research training program, with housing and transportation covered for college students attending out-of-state research-active institutions including but not limited to HBCUs, HSIs, MSIs, and TCUs. This includes colleges and universities that have historically not been recognized for high research activity, such as institutions that offer few or no doctoral programs. No experience is needed! Strong candidates are those interested in exploring the disease of cancer through biotechnology, data science, public health, clinical science, and basic science fields. If interested, visit our website to see eligibility requirements and the application link. Deadline is February 6th, 2026. 

Virtual Information Session: If you're interested in biotechnology, computer science, data science, clinical science, public health and research careers, this is a great opportunity! The CURE team will be sharing more program information and answering your questions at this virtual session.
