What People Are Saying
“The RA program was absolutely my favorite experience of my undergraduate career! The program provided many opportunities beyond the typical research experience. It allowed me to get hands-on patient interactions, witness team work in a clinical setting, and see the “behind-the-scenes” of an emergency department. When med school applications came around, it was the easiest experience to talk about— not only because it was enjoyable, but because it provided me with ample amounts of new, applicable knowledge that I couldn’t receive from my textbooks. The program will make you stand out as an applicant, while the people will become your second family.”
— Dr. Noam Dadon, Former Research Assistant, Graduate of UNLV School of Medicine, and Surgical Resident
