Description


Spend 2-8 weeks in Dr. Zon's laboratory working on blood diseases and cancer. Here are some testimonials:

Kelsey Grousbeck '08: "I felt very appreciated and useful interning in Dr. Zon's lab. One day they would teach me how to run a PCR or inject a fish embryo with a potential cancer gene, and the next day I would be responsible for doing it completely on my own. The responsibility was daunting, but is was refreshing to intern in a setting where I was actually doing work to help their research."

Erin Radley '09: "This was an incredible opportunity because I got to see science being used in the real world. I learned so much through being in the lab and the experience excited me to continue to pursue science in my studies."

Ally Geanacopoulos '09: "It was so inspiring to be a small part of a team aiming to find a cure for melanoma. My postdoc supervisor spent a lot of time teaching me about her research, and she showed me how fun and fulfilling it would be to pursue a career in science."
