Our currently available Student Scholar projects include the following:

Project Title:

Advancing Learning Health Systems: Design Your Own Research Project

Description:

Mass EQLHS is one of 16 nationally designated Centers of Excellence in learning health system science working to improve healthcare delivery and outcomes. The institute aims to advance the development of learning health system scientists, accelerate the science of learning health systems, and forge a strong cross institutional alliance between our Mass EQLHS partners who care for over 4 million (57%) of Massachusetts patients annually at community hospitals, safety net hospitals, and academic health systems.

A core piece of our mission is to inspire the next generation of learning health system (LHS) scientists. We invite students to propose a unique, one to two-page project that aligns with the goals of learning health systems—using data, research, and partnerships to continuously improve health outcomes and system performance. Proposed projects may build on existing Mass EQLHS initiatives or introduce new ideas that advance the science or practice of LHS within participating institutions.

If you are interested in applying, please attach a project proposal with the following information within the Mass EQLHS Student Scholar REDCap application:

• Your full name (first & last)

• Education to date (include degrees awarded)

• Current institution, degree in progress, and anticipated graduation date

• Whether you are seeking paid or unpaid work

• Desired start and end dates

• A one to two-page project proposal describing your idea, its goals, methods, and how it connects to learning health systems and the Mass EQLHS mission
