Biochemical Research at Boston Children’s Hospital, USA

When I started my internship at Boston Children’s Hospital, which is affiliated with Harvard Medical School, I had great respect for the institution. Harvard is globally recognized as one of the best universities, and I was eager to understand what exactly makes it stand out. I wanted to discover what contributes to its exceptional reputation and whether its research environment is truly as unique as often portrayed. At the same time, I was curious about how research there would compare to Germany and whether Germany genuinely lags behind in terms of scientific excellence.

Research Internship in Seoul, South-Korea

I chose to do my research internship in Korea after having been there once for a working holiday in 2016 and then a second time on vacation in spring of 2024. This time I was going back with the idea of spending some more time there not just as a traveler but instead entering the work life. „Research Internship in Seoul, South-Korea“ weiterlesen
