The MSK Bridge program aims to provide post-baccalaureate trainees from traditionally underrepresented (URM) groups with a strong foundation in science and research, as well as guided mentoring that will help them successfully transition into biomedical PhD programs. Successful applicants to the program — known as Bridge Scholars — will conduct a research project in one of MSK’s scientific laboratories for up to 24 months. The overarching goal of MSK Bridge is to increase the participation of URM scientists in biomedical fields.
The incoming cohort of Bridge Scholars will start in July 2025, with the deadline to receive all application materials: February 21, 2025. Scholars receive a competitive stipend ($47,741K), relocation expenses reimbursement, health benefits and access to MSK rental housing (more info on the flyer attached).

Students from backgrounds historically underrepresented in science and who aspire to pursue biomedical PhDs or MD-PhDs are strongly encouraged to apply.
