I can answer questions about the HHMI research fellowship for medical students, yay!
Would you mind answering (roughly) the same questions that I posted earlier? Thanks.I can answer questions about the HHMI research fellowship for medical students, yay!
nope nothing yet. hopefully we will hear something this weekend?
I imagine it'll be today or Monday. Most likely Monday considering the date that applicants got invitations last year.
BTW, does anyone know if all DD sites require interviews? It would be bittersweet if I got multiple interviews because I'll be in the middle of my clerkship at that time and might have to withdrawal if I accumulate too many absences.
Has anyone else given this any thought?
Hey everyone!
I also got an email this morning! Ditto on the whole exam thing...just finished a morning path/pharm house exam (which was brutal) when I read the email
Does anyone know if the Doris Duke program at UNC interviews applicants? Anyone have any idea how competitive the UNC DD program is? Also, is there anyone here who has participated in the UNC DD program in a previous year who wouldn't mind posting his/her experiences?
I got an email from the DD co-ordinator at UNC with potential mentors a couple days ago and got in touch with one of the mentors. Currently hashing out a project proposal with him.
Thanks!
Hey,
UNC does not interview, I emailed Susan Pusek about that. Apparently we all need to get a mentor letter submitted and that will place us "within the first group given acceptance to the program."
This is all pretty interesting. Does the UNC DD program have a formal classroom component? I ask becauseDoes anyone know if the Doris Duke program at UNC interviews applicants? Anyone have any idea how competitive the UNC DD program is?...

I was just wondering are these fellowships considered taxable income?
Yes, I asked.
Hmm it seems in the case of medical student research fellowships where you work at an institution with an HHMI stipend, you are technically a nonemployee research, and the stipend will not be reported to the IRS and thus is tax free. Look at harvard for example:

Hey,
I just got a message on my phone today from someone from UTSW DD, but I unfortunately didn't hear my phone ring. He left a message asking me to call back tomorrow...I'm sure by now you guys have also heard from UTSW?
According to my convo with the UTSW program, I am not sure if anyone had an "in person" interview. He mentioned that of the 50+ applicants, 20ish were being called on the phone of which there are 8 spots.
Did anyone hear from UNC this morning?
