Interns are welcome and encouraged to participate in ongoing research. In the past post doctoral funding has been obtained via hospital-funded projects. While research experiences are supported and many interns participate in and present research at conferences, we view the internship year primarily as a clinical training experience and as such, clinical experience activities are primary.
Faculty members are involved in numerous research projects. Some current active research studies include:
- Self-Management of Type 1 Diabetes During Adolescence
- Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Type 1 Diabetes
- Motivational Interviewing in Parent-Based Behavioral Consultation
- Psychological Screening for Bariatric Surgery
- Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Cardiac Patients
Interns are welcomed and encouraged to participate in ongoing research. Interns who have completed their dissertations and have an individual research interest will likely find support among the faculty. In the past post doctoral funding has been obtained via Nemours Foundation-funded projects.
