  • National Conferences: Each NY-RaMP Scholar has the opportunity to attend a conference. The specific meeting that each Scholar attends depends upon the interests of the Scholar and their Mentoring team. Examples of national-level meetings Scholars have attended include ABRCMS, the NCI Fifth Annual Ras Symposium, the 16th International Symposium on Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, and the NCI Advancing Medical Applications of Cancer Nanotechnology.

  • Hunter College Research Symposium: NY-RaMP Scholars have the opportunity to present their research to students and faculty from Hunter College.

  • NY-RaMP Retreat: This off-site bonding event in the Spring is an opportunity for each Scholar to present their research project to their peers and other scientists.
