Undergraduate Summer Opportunites?

[shantster]

I am interested in doing an MD/MPH while in med school. I just did a summer of lab research, but does anyone know of a summer program geared toward a public health focus? Do those even exist? Thanks.

Just a little googling, but I found these:

EPA summer undergrad fellowships http://es.epa.gov/ncer/fellow/

CDC Summer Public health fellows (for minority undergrads) http://www.cdc.gov/hrmo/intshps2.htm#PHSFP

Summer research at UNC http://www.ibiblio.org/res/undergrad.php

Our (U Iowa) SUMR research for students interested in physician scientist programs also allows students to do public health related research http://www.medicine.uiowa.edu/mstp/sumr/index.html

There are probably lots of others but I'm tired

Plus, my friend's daughter (a junior) found an international global health summer fellowship. She went to China this summer and worked at Peking Hospital doing some pretty cool epidemiologic projects.
