Dear Students,

 Our library is an indispensable resource for planning and writing your Scholarly Paper (SP). Planning ahead is key to having a meaningful experience. The librarians have created a helpful guide that offers many resources relevant to the successful completion of your Scholarly Paper requirement. If you elect to write a systematic review as your SP, the librarian with whom you work will be an integral part of your mentoring team.

 The Office of Medical Student Research is here to help, answer questions, and provide feedback on your paper. For assistance with basic/translational science papers, do not hesitate to contact Dr. Joan Berman. For all other types of research papers, do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Ellie Schoenbaum, MD

Director, Medical Student Research
