This internship offers a unique blend of extensive shadowing opportunities in a renowned women's sports medicine practice and hands-on clinical research experience at a Harvard-affiliated institution.
The Women's Sports Medicine Summer Internship Program at Mass General Brigham is a one-month program designed for premedical and medical students. It aims to increase exposure and provide experience in the field of women's sports medicine. Participants will have shadowing opportunities in orthopaedic surgery, clinic, and physical therapy. A significant component of the internship involves completing a summer research project. Interns will gain clinical research experience by conducting literature searches, interacting with research subjects, preparing manuscripts, and collecting and/or analyzing data. They will work closely with Dr. Elizabeth Matzkin and her research team, including residents and physician assistants. The program also encourages shadowing in various aspects of patient care, including the operating room, and offers opportunities to attend team conferences and presentations. Interns may also explore subspecialties beyond women's sports medicine, such as trauma, hand, upper extremity, foot and ankle, and physical medicine and rehabilitation.
A typical day involves a combination of shadowing physicians in orthopaedic surgery, clinic, and physical therapy, alongside dedicated time for conducting a summer research project, which may include literature searches, data collection, and analysis.
This program is best for premedical and medical students with a strong interest in orthopaedic surgery and women's sports medicine.
