Internship in a women’s health research group in Australia

Through the Erasmus+ Internship program, I had the opportunity to spend five months working at a research institute in Melbourne, Australia. My internship took place at the Hudson Institute of Medical Research, specifically within the Ritchie Centre, which focuses on improving the health of women and children. „Internship in a women’s health research group in Australia“ weiterlesen

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.

Reasearching at Karolinska Institute in Sweden

I spend my 6-month graduate internship at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, I had the opportunity to work at the Center for Infectious Medicine (CIM) in the Department of Medicine, Huddinge. I was part of a research team focused on understanding the role of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in intestinal inflammation, cancer, and asthma, though my specific work concentrated more on T cells. „Reasearching at Karolinska Institute in Sweden“ weiterlesen

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

Internship at a Paranal Observatory in Chile

During my internship at ESO’s paranal observatory, I focused on automating repetitive and time-consuming tasks within the PIN (Paranal Instrumentation) Group. My role involved improving processes, developing automated systems, and using cutting-edge technology to enhance operational efficiency. I worked on three main projects: the FORS2 FFB3 lamp adjustment automation, LLM-powered report writing, and KMOS helium compressor closed-loop control, as well as assisting in the day to day operation of the PIN group. „Internship at a Paranal Observatory in Chile“ weiterlesen

Biologie-Forschungen in Paris

Die Arbeitsgruppe, in der ich mein Praktikum absolviert habe, wird von zwei PIs geleitet und besteht ansonsten vor allem aus PhD-Studierenden. Trotz des eher jungen Teams greifen die Mitarbeitenden auf einen breiten Erfahrungsschatz zurück, da einer der beiden PIs bereits seit 1994 als PI arbeitet. „Biologie-Forschungen in Paris“ weiterlesen

Praktikum in der Zeckenforschung auf Hokkaidō im Norden Japans

Ich habe ein einmonatiges Praktikum am Laboratory of Parasitology der Hokkaidō Universität in Japan absolviert. Die Hokkaidō Universität (Hokudai) ist eine renommierte japanische Eliteuniversität und gilt als landesweit führend im Bereich Veterinärmedizin mit über 22.000 Studierenden und Mitarbeitenden.

Das Laboratory of Parasitology der Hokudai ist spezialisiert auf die Erforschung von Zecken und Echinoccus spp. (z. B. Fuchsbandwurm) und nimmt damit einen wichtigen Stellenwert in der Überwachung von Infektionskrankheiten in Wildtieren und Zoonosen ein. „Praktikum in der Zeckenforschung auf Hokkaidō im Norden Japans“ weiterlesen
