The Tan Laboratory is open to undergraduates in the Sloan–Kettering Summer Undergraduate Research Program. Prior completion of sophomore organic chemistry, including a lab, is required. Applications should be sent directly to the program through its website by February 1st each year.

Unfortunately, due to the advanced level of training required to conduct chemical research, we cannot accommodate high school students.
