- My work was meaningful to the world outside of my internship because the research we do here at Ionis can be used to help people around the world. Specifically, the work I have been doing with Multiple Sclerosis can be used to create a drug to treat people with MS.
- My project was already set before I even started internship, so there was not a lot of room for ideas or inspiration. It did, however, go from my expectations to the final product that I worked on and learned about. I saw the progress of the model throughout my time at internship, and how the mice' condition develop. - The work ethic of a lot of the people I worked with, especially my mentor Joseph, was inspiring. They all had a drive to do the research and work continually to get the project done. The pace at which they worked was very fast because they were passionate about the work they were doing. - This internship has not changed too much of what my life could look like after high school. My plan is still the same, I want to go to a four year university after high school to get my undergraduate degree. As for a career, I still want to pursue engineering in college but work some science in as well.
