Please read on for a descriptin of our current program.

Minnesota Consortium for CAM Clinical Research offers

giving an overview of clinical research in CAM.
Interns are expected to spend 10 weeks (exact length dependent on graduate
school schedule) for 30 hours a week on the project with which they
are placed.
Internship stipends are made available by a grant from the National
Center for Complementary Medicine (NCCAM) of the National Institutes
of Health (NIH).
Basic Eligibility Criteria:
