The Rudy L. Ruggles Biomedical Research Institute Laboratory Research Program

The Nuvance Health Research Program at The Rudy L. Ruggles Biomedical Research Institute is a summer research experience for high school students, college undergraduates, and medical students. The program emphasizes a “hands on” laboratory experience using a curated curriculum in pipetting accuracy, bacterial growth, protein lysis and quantitation, agarose gels, electrophoresis, western blot analysis, fluorescent microscopy, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) assays and tissue microarrays/staining. The goal of the program is to broaden the students’ understanding of the research process and possible career paths by providing an authentic experience working in an active research lab.

Over a two-week period, students will be required to spend five days a week at the Biomedical Research Institute performing hands-on activities under the guidance of a mentor.  A typical day will run from 9 am – 3 pm.

2025 Rudy L. Ruggles Research Experience application submissions are now closed.
