Hi everyone! I’m applying to a Harvard summer stem cell lab program next year and would really appreciate hearing from anyone who was previously selected.

The application asks for a one-page CV/resume and a 750-word personal statement focusing on resilience, tenacity, openness to experience, and how the program fits into your aspirations.I have very little experience writing application materials, so I’d love to hear about how you decided what experiences and stories to highlight.

If you were selected in previous years or have any related experiences and feel comfortable sharing , I’d be very grateful for any advice or examples of how you prepared your materials. Thank you!
