The CRAF offers a clinical-based Summer Studentship (supported by CRA, pending external funding, to be confirmed in late April 2024) designed for Canadian students (citizens or permanent residents) registered in a medical school.

May-August 6-12 weeks
The CRAF offers a research-based Summer Studentship (supported by CRA, pending external funding, to be confirmed in late April 2024) designed to introduce Canadian students (citizens or permanent residents) registered in a medical school, to the sub-specialty of rheumatology. The program entails connecting a student with a CRA member for a rheumatology-based research project. These research projects must enable participating students to make a significant contribution over the course of the summer.
