Students who participate in the program will develop research competencies, setting the stage for their continued development as research leaders in EMS and other fields. Projects fostered by the program will result in scholarly publications and presentations that impact clinical, operational, and administrative developments within the collegiate EMS community.

Junior Research Mentors are tactical enablers of meaningful research, often with recent, relevant experience for our Research Scholars, while developing the pedigree and experience of our Senior Research Mentors. Junior Research Mentors can expect to learn as they teach and build their CV with co-author credit on published work. They are expected to have strong preparation in research, teaching, or mentorship to mentor Research Scholars under the guidance of Senior Research Mentors. To express interest in serving as a Junior Research Mentor, please submit a brief letter of intent and CV to JCEMS@JCEMS.org.
