Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center, the future site of a new dermatology residency program in the next few years, is recruiting medical students interested in dermatology who are able to spend 12 months working on projects related to "academic dermatology." No internship or clinical trials experience is required. All that is required is having a computer with an Internet connection.
The project will be based on this paper-- **Dermatology residency program characteristics that correlate with graduates selecting an academic dermatology career. Archives of Dermatology, July 2006;142(7):845-850. PMID: 16847199. The data for this original study also produced 4 smaller studies, 4 commentaries:

Archives of Dermatology, July 2006;142(7):845-850. PMID: 16847199. (one of the most read and sent articles in 2006-2008 per Archives of Dermatology)

· Hinchman KF, Wu JJ. Decisions in choosing a career in academic dermatology. Cutis, November 2008; 82(5):368-371.
The data also produced 6 published poster abstracts and 1 poster.
The new project will be based on 2008 data that needs to be collected and analyzed. The potential papers and posters following this new primary paper would certainly help any residency application.
The Principal Investigator is Jashin (Jay) Wu, MD, who is the Founding Director of Clinical Research at Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center. He has over 100 book chapters and Pubmed journal articles published, in press, or submitted. Internal Kaiser grants and other grants are available to fund your research time. Those who are interested should email a letter of interest and their CV to [email protected]. Please, no questions about the new residency program, as details are not available yet.
