The Comprehensive Research Experience for Medical Students (CREMS) Summer Research Program provides opportunities each year for medical students enrolled at the University of Toronto to participate in a full-time summer research project between their first and second year, or second and third year of medical school, under the supervision of a faculty mentor. 

The program runs for 10 -12 weeks and the student works on a research project on a full-time basis. Submitted projects are reviewed and scored by the CREMs adjudication committee and are offered to the supervisor/projects with the highest scores.
