Sanford Research has research opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students. The Sanford Program for Undergraduate Research (SPUR), which includes tracks funded by an NSF REU grant and an NIH R25 grant, provides summer undergraduate research opportunities in basic and biomedical science. In addition, we take PhD students through affiliated programs at the University of South Dakota (Basic Biomedical Sciences) and South Dakota State University (Biochemistry) to complete their dissertation research in a Sanford Research lab.
