Biology Research Intern
June - August 2019 • Memphis, TN
What I liked
I loved having the opportunity to do graduate level research at this time. Being able to participate in animal behavior research that will be used by the Memphis Zoo to curtail their treatment of the animals is really amazing. This internship had immense flexibility by letting me choose my own times and hours that I would be working. Additionally, there were 3 other interns so being able to collaborate and share our experiences was great.
