ranked within the top 5% of the class; 4) from a

financial need, you may still qualify as being from a
disadvantaged background by providing a personal statement
explaining your situation. In return for the scholarship,
recipients commit to two types of service obligation for
each year of scholarship: 10-week summer service as a paid
employee in an NIH research laboratory, and after
