BioMentor Network helps middle and high school students find free research and internship opportunities in biology and medicine, with a mentor guiding every step.
BioMentor Network opens the door to biomedical research for every student, whatever their zip code or family income.
Many talented students never hear about the labs, programs, and internships open to them, or don't know how to apply. Our volunteer mentors show students where to look, how to reach out, and how to build a strong application, always at no cost.
No fees for students or families. We only point to opportunities that are free to join.
One-on-one support from people working and studying in the life sciences.
We focus on students who haven't had a path into research until now.
Build a foundation in middle school life science or strengthen your understanding of high school and AP Biology, at your own pace.
Turn an interest into a focused question. Learn to read scientific papers, shape a project idea, find opportunities, and write to researchers, even if you're starting from scratch.
