Researching at an Biotech Company in Vienna

As a master’s student in Molecular and Cell Biology at Freie Universität Berlin, I had the opportunity to complete a six-month Erasmus-funded internship at a biotech company in Vienna, Austria. The internship focused on antiviral drug development, directly aligning with my professional aspirations in research and development. This experience provided me with invaluable training, enhanced my scientific skills, and offered a unique perspective on the dynamic environment of the biotech industry. „Researching at an Biotech Company in Vienna“ weiterlesen

Internship Abroad in Spain, University of Barcelona

I am pursuing a Master’s degree in Biochemistry at Freie Universität Berlin. For my Erasmus internship, I decided on Barcelona because I had previously completed an Erasmus semester there. Since I already knew the professor of the research group from the lectures during my Erasmus, the application process was very straightforward, and I received an immediate acceptance. Preparing the documents for the Erasmus+ Internship application also went smoothly and without any issues.

Researching in Penicuik, Scotland

In order to graduate Biology doing an internship outside the FU is mandatory. Due to a lucky coincidence, I found the Moredun Research Institute’s parasitology group.
My decision to go abroad for my internship as well as doing so at MRI was the best one, I could’ve made.

Research Internship at Maastricht University

I began by gaining knowledge of the types of signals to be acquired and analysed in 7T laminar fMRI and knowledge of the most common statistical packages used in data analysis. In the following weeks I practised these skills on an existing dataset provided by Prof. de Martino. I also gained access to educational materials prepared by Dr. Federico de Martino and received one-on-one consultation sessions with the Prof. de Martino as well as scientific exchange within the research group.

Blended Internship in Edinburgh

Erasmus+ blended training format and destination choice

The Erasmus+ traineeship is an useful opportunity to benefit from an international exchange once graduated, as in my case, having concluded my studies on the SS24. Not having been before in Scotland, I chose it as destination because of a seminar delivered by a professor coming from Edinburgh. This seminar was hosted during the period I was conducting my master thesis project at the local research institute Max Delbrück Center.

My experiences at the Centre for European Policy Studies, Brussels

After my Erasmus exchange at the University of Antwerp, I was inspired by my classmates to seek an internship in Brussels, the EU’s headquarters. Although I had always envisioned a career in research, I recently decided to explore opportunities beyond academia, particularly in spaces where research intersects with practical policymaking. That’s when think tanks caught my attention—they offer a unique environment where project-led, evidence-based policy recommendations are developed, bridging the gap between academia and consulting.
