“I’ve been given the opportunity and creative space to explore a multitude of intellectual topics that I otherwise wouldn’t have known existed. Going through multiple long-term research projects has helped me develop essential communication and writing skills, solidified my passion for scientific research in college and my career, and prepared me invaluably for the future.”
