Description
Elizabeth Yeh and co-authors present a 2025 report on summer research programs at an Indiana cancer center. Cancer death rates have fallen sharply since 1991, and keeping progress going needs a steady stream of trained researchers. The center ran its first hands-on summer program in 2002 and has hosted more than 300 students since.
What began with federal training support has grown into three nationally funded programs. Early cohorts drew high school and early college students; the newer ones also reach middle schoolers, high school science teachers, and medical students. The authors describe how the programs are organized and share early results from the expansion. Their aim is to grow a skilled, committed cancer research workforce for the long term.
