The Learner Inquiry Form allows students to create an learner profile that is available to researchers at the Children's Mercy Research Institute.

This is not an official application. Your profile will be sorted based on the area(s) of interest that you identify on the form and made available to CMRI investigators in basic, clinical and translational research programs. Investigators will determine the availability/need for interns in their research groups.
