BHHI Summer Explore Research Program

Overview

The Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative (BHHI) provides accurate, timely policy-oriented research about homelessness for local, state, and national policymakers and practitioners. BHHI is seeking highly motivated students to join our multidisciplinary team for this 8-week summer program.

The Summer Explore Fellowships are designed for medical students for the UCSF School of Medicine, who are typically between their first and second year of professional school. The primary goals are to provide a mentored-research experience and to provide students an introduction to conducting strategic science research with communities affected by homelessness.

*Update November 15, 2024: BHHI will not be recruiting a new cohort for the upcoming 2025 Summer Explore application cycle. We sincerely appreciate your interest in our program. While we are not accepting applications at this time, we encourage you to stay connected for updates, new reports, policy briefs and webinars, here on our website.
