Last summer I had the opportunity to work as an intern for the Centro de
genómica nutricional agro acuícola in Chile. It was a fantastic
experience. Working in the lab full time helped me to enhance my
research skills and also gave me an insight into how biology advances in
a more commercial setting. I left Chile feeling more confident in my
understanding and capability in regards to both the principles and the
techniques. In addition the opportunity to leave Provo, and live in a
foreign country, provided me the opportunity to learn about a new
culture as well as to make new friends. I feel like my world-view was
enhanced through this opportunity and I am sure that it is something
that I will never forget. Plus, I am pretty sure as grad schools have
looked at my applications, an internship in Chile was something that
helped me to stand further apart.
