Excited about novel research?

Our mentors come from varied research backgrounds. These include Computer Science, Biomedical Sciences, Economics, Neuroscience, Public Health, Sociology, and more!

The main goal is to write a research publishable paper. The premium program will push for publication in a journal. The standard program will result in a potentially publishable paper in which further work may be necessary for publication.

That’s a really good question! We encourage you to reach out to either your PathIvy Counselor or book a consultation with our team. Above all, we are looking for students who are motivated to learn, do the work, and commit to 5 to 7 hours per week and the program requirements. No previous experience necessary.

You can write one of two types of papers: Literature Review or Data Analysis. A literature review type paper will be suitable for students looking to develop a deeper understanding of a field and identifying knowledge gaps through gathering and analyzing existing research. Data analysis will require you to work with public data sets to uncover trends or insights using advanced statistical analysis techniques statistics or basic ML techniques.

We offer two program tiers. The standard program is a foundational research program designed to be 10 weeks. The premium program is a more advanced program which will require a 17 week commitment.

There are several differences besides the length, some of which are below.
Students who are beginners in their research and are not focused on research for their major are encouraged to choose the standard program. The focus is conducting research with publication potential, knowing that further work may be required to strengthen it for publication.

Students who have previous research experience and are applying to competitive research universities are encouraged to choose premium. The main priority is publication in a research journal, requiring extensive time and support in conducting advanced research and refining the paper for submission.

To get a better idea of what we offer, we encourage both parents and students to reach out to the PathIvy counselors to figure out what’s best for them.

We have winter, spring, and summer cohorts. Please reach out to our team or your counselor for application deadlines and program dates!
