The Jonas E. Salk Scholarship honors City College alumnus Dr. Jonas E. Salk, developer of the first polio vaccine. Each year eight graduates of CUNY senior colleges who have been accepted to U.S. medical or graduate schools in biomedical sciences are selected based on undergraduate research and potential to contribute to medical research.
