The Computational Image Analysis Platform (CIMAP) summer research experience from CMIL is offered in direct partnership with the NIH. It is a 10-week summer experience that promotes entry into STEM graduate degree programs.
Using the team science research training model and HuBMAP tutorials, webinars and data science tools, students will experience discovery research and gain exposure to the fields of data science, image analysis, and an atlas of a human ‘reference’ system at the single cell level.
Students receive mentoring from Dr. Pinaki Sarder (AI and machine learning), and Dr. Levites Strekalova along with Rachel Emily Liu-Galvin and Mishal Khan (health services and research translation). In summer 2024, they were also teamed by Dr. Sanjay Jain (spatial omics).
Integrating collaborative research and targeted professional development within this summer research internship is a powerful approach to increasing the diversity of the biomedical data science workforce. This holistic training experience expects to hone key professional skills and incorporate activities that promote self-discovery and wellness, increasing the likelihood that students will pursue a STEM career pathway.
