Partners for the Future
The CSHL Partners for the Future program was established in 1990 to give young students a taste of the real world of biomedical research. Each year, six or eight Long Island high school students entering their senior year are chosen from a large pool of nominees to participate in the program. The selected students spend a minimum of 10 hours per week, October through March, doing original research under the guidance of a Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory scientist. At the conclusion of the program, students present their research project to an audience of scientific mentors, high school teachers, friends, and relatives.
The program, now in its 11th year, is an overwhelming success. To date, 53 students have completed the program, and all of them are now or have been enrolled in top-ranked colleges and universities.
