What Is GROW: Greater Boston Research Opportunities?
GROW is a Boston University LERNet research program. The saved About page describes the 2026 session for students who were then juniors enrolled in Massachusetts schools, lived within 30 miles of Boston, demonstrated achievement in science, and would be at least 16 by July 1, 2026. Those historical conditions do not establish eligibility for a future cycle.
For 2026, the page lists mandatory orientation on July 6 followed by individual laboratory placements July 7-August 14, Monday-Friday, 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Participants meet with the program manager, hear STEM speakers and present their research at a summer symposium.
