Research Opportunities
The faculty and students of the UC Riverside School of Medicine are conducting world-class research in a broad variety of areas.
Medical students may participate in cutting-edge research throughout their four years. This includes participation in Practice Improvement Projects (PIPs) through the Longitudinal Ambulatory Care Experience (LACE), summer research fellowships following MS1, ongoing clinical research during MS3, and research rotations during MS4.

Dean's Research Innovation Grant
The School of Medicine's Dean's Research Innovation Grant is designed to promote clinically-relevant research by medical students, residents, fellows, and junior clinical faculty in the School of Medicine. It will award up to five grants per year for up to $10,000 per award (final annual approvals are subject to change based on available funding).
Eligible projects include those designed to produce preliminary data to support larger extramurally funded research pursuits, stimulate collaborations between learners and faculty "sponsors," and advance research projects by junior investigators.
