The Biomedical Engineering Summer Internship Program (BESIP) is hosted by the BETA Center<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nibib.nih.gov%2Flabs-at-nibib%2Fcenter-for-biomedical-engineering-technology-acceleration-beta&data=05%7C02%7CCbee-jobs%40engr.oregonstate.edu%7Ce1f2e0795bde49e588d708dcf4532dd0%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C638653885285011414%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=dSazqejIeHqLWjjl5z63ma48FTKsY7A7Og0QWN36A9M%3D&reserved=0>, an NIH-wide organization housed in the NIBIB intramural research program. The BETA Center was formed in 2023 to leverage advances in biomedical engineering and related disciplines to accelerate technology-driven interdisciplinary research and clinical translation in the IRP, and now has affiliate members with engineering and imaging expertise including biomedical imaging, biosensing, biomechanics, engineered/synthetic biology, nano/biomaterials, artificial intelligence, modeling, computation, and informatics. Central to BETA Center's mission is employing evidence-driven approaches to expand diversity, equity, and inclusion within NIBIB's Intramural Research Program and serving as a model for recruiting diverse biomedical engineering talent to NIH. Students interested in biomedical engineering research will come to the NIH campus from June 2, 2025 to August 8, 2025 for an intensive in-person research experience. The internship allows students to participate in cutting-edge biomedical research projects under the mentorship of world-class scientists and engineers in NIH laboratories in Bethesda, MD. BESIP interns can also participate in a variety of professional and career development programs offered by the NIH's Office of Intramural Training and Education<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.training.nih.gov%2F&data=05%7C02%7CCbee-jobs%40engr.oregonstate.edu%7Ce1f2e0795bde49e588d708dcf4532dd0%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C638653885286261457%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=qO%2FfX51R8bjoVJUmdNeLgGeIHbXAEHCYN338oCX0Wn0%3D&reserved=0>. To meet our goals of providing cutting edge research opportunities to biomedical engineering majors, broadening and diversifying the trainee workforce, and getting more people excited about biomedical imaging and bioengineering, the BESIP program contains two tracks: BESIP-BME and BESIP-STEM. https://www.nibib.nih.gov/labs-at-nibib/besip<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nibib.nih.gov%2Flabs-at-nibib%2Fbesip&data=05%7C02%7CCbee-jobs%40engr.oregonstate.edu%7Ce1f2e0795bde49e588d708dcf4532dd0%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C638653885286417752%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=PCEsCJ4ZzLv%2FLuWli61Mh4m%2Ff8YkNULL9Z793TnkZNQ%3D&reserved=0> Josefine Fleetwood (She/Her), Employer Relations Manager Oregon State University | College of Engineering School of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering School of Nuclear Science and Engineering Department of Biological and Ecological Engineering 116 Johnson Hall - Room 112 541-737-7286 Josefine.fleetwood@oregonstate.edu<mailto:Josefine.fleetwood@oregonstate.edu>
