National Student Research Forum (NSRF)

The National Student Research Forum originated at the University of Texas Medical Branch in 1959 and is held annually on campus. The primary purpose of the NSRF, now in the fifty-second year, is to provide a national scientific assembly, planned and managed by students for presentation of research by medical students, residents, and graduate students in the health sciences. The Forum recognizes excellence in research by means of awards, based upon the judgment of a panel of medical scientists selected from the UTMB faculty. It also provides an opportunity for young health scientists to receive meaningful and pertinent discussion of their research efforts by their peers and by established scientists in an atmosphere encouraging the highest scientific standards. We look forward to seeing you this year at the NSRF.
