As part of our mission to support the next-generation of biomedical researchers, we have established a number of partnerships with colleges and universities. We also host academic scientists as visiting scientists and visiting scholars.
University Partnerships

With our academic collaborators, we co-host lecture series and other scientific events, provide faculty training and exchange, and host undergraduate and graduate student trainees.
Visiting Scholars Program
The Visiting Scholars Program provides scientists with an opportunity to collaborate with a sponsor investigator at the only federal national laboratory in the United States devoted exclusively to biomedical research.
Visiting Scholars are established scientists with specific expertise in an area of need at the Frederick National Laboratory, and who develop and execute a research proposal and project aligned with their own research interests and the mission of the National Cancer Institute.
