Research experiences for students are designed to stimulate the imagination and instill commitment to evidence based practice and the generation of new knowledge.
PCOM investigators are committed to training students in research methodologies and
honing their communication skills. In turn, students contribute to formulation of
hypotheses, data collection and sharing of information in a collegial atmosphere within
the laboratory, patient care center or clinical research facility.
