On behalf of the Louis de la Parte Florida Mental Health Institute (FMHI) at USF, I would like to inform you of a potential research opportunity to share with your students. FMHI is inviting undergraduate students interested in substance use and co-occurring disorders to apply for a highly selective Summer Research Institute (SRI) funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). This program is designed for students interested in building their research skills within the context of substance use and co-occurring disorders to prepare for a Senior Thesis and/or graduate school. The SRI@FMHI is an 11-week in-person program taking place from May 23, 2024, to August 1, 2024.
