Bernard S. and Sophie G. Gould Fund<\/h2>\n

The Bernard S. and Sophie G. Gould Fund<\/a> was established in 2016 to support students participating MIT\u2019s Summer Research Program in Biology (MSRP\u00ad-Bio)<\/a>, now known as the Bernard S. and Sophie G. Gould MIT Summer Research Program in Biology (BSG-MSRP-Bio). MSRP-Bio was established in 2003 by Mike Gould and Sara Moss to provide an intensive research experience for undergraduate students from institutions with limited research opportunities \u2014 increasing the number of under\u00adrepresented minority students, first generation college students, and students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds entering PhD or MD\/PhD programs. To date, more than 400 students have participated in MSRP\u00ad-Bio<\/a>, and nearly 100 have enrolled at MIT for graduate school.<\/p>\n
