2021 Summer Interns

On this episode of What’s Work Got To Do With It? we highlight our 2021 Summer Intern Program at the Institute and OHWC. Each summer, undergraduate interns work with faculty mentors in basic and applied research over a three-month paid summer internship designed to introduce them to biomedical and occupational health research. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we had to make the tough decision to cancel our summer intern program last summer in 2020, so we are excited to be able to host our summer intern program for 2021 and offer undergraduate students the opportunity to work on research projects virtually this year. We spoke to each of our 2021 Summer Interns as they share their experience working alongside institute researchers and how this experience will inform their future careers in research, clinical health, and public health. Guests: Renee Kozlowski, Kaiyo Shi, Megan Jones, Lauren Lee, and Anika Banister Host: Helen Schuckers, M.P.H. Visit our Summer Intern page for more information on the application process.
