The SAEM Foundation (SAEMF), in partnership with SAEM, is proud to announce the SAEMF National Research Scholars Program, a new national initiative designed to support medical students who are interested in emergency care research and careers as emergency medicine (EM) clinician-scientists.
EM has made substantial progress in advancing its research enterprise, strengthening national research priorities, and expanding opportunities for federally funded investigation. However, the specialty continues to face a critical need for a larger and more diverse research workforce. One important barrier is the limited availability of structured, mentored research pathways for medical students who may be interested in EM but have not yet had access to EM research mentors, infrastructure, or career development opportunities.
The SAEMF National Research Scholars Program (SAEMF-NRSP) was created to address this need by providing selected medical students with the opportunity to spend 12 consecutive months conducting full-time emergency care research at a U.S. institution outside their home medical school, under the mentorship of leading EM investigators. The program will:
- Recruit outstanding medical students with interest and potential in research
- Provide structured, mentored research training in emergency medicine
- Expand the national pipeline of EM clinician-scientists
- Create a visible medical student research presence at the SAEM Annual Meeting
- Strengthen connections between medical students and leading EM investigators nationwide
