2027 RAMP
Research and Mentoring Program (RAMP) is a summer research training program that targets 11th and 12th grade high school students from Baltimore City. The program aims to prepare students for careers in biomedical research. RAMP is designed for students with a strong interest in biology, chemistry, medicine, or related fields.
RAMP is a 2-year program, consisting of a 5-week summer program that teaches foundational knowledge required to understand concepts across the translational research continuum while providing the skills to perform basic lab techniques and clinical measurements and school year research rotation experiences in year one, followed by an applied summer research experience during the second summer. High school participants can be paid through YouthWorks for the summer portions in addition to being paid up to $500 for participating in the research rotations.
Summer 2027 programming will be June 28 - July 30, 2027, 9:30am-3:00pm, Monday-Friday.
Students who live outside of Baltimore City are welcome to apply, however, priority is given to Baltimore City residents. Therefore, non-City residents will not be contacted about their applications until after the end of the regular application cycle (late February-early March). We are unable to guarantee payment to non-City residents for the summer portion of RAMP programming.
