Undergraduate Research Assistant

June - August 2019 • Seattle, WA

What I liked

I loved getting to spend extended time in lab with friendly, engaging mentors, listening to discoveries in current research.

What I wish was different

Weekly the work was very repetitive. I enjoyed it for the most part, but by the end of the summer was ready to be done doing the same tasks on a weekly basis.

Advice

It is a great opportunity to learn about lab practices and develop lab safety skills. For people interested in pursuing a career in research or medicine, I strongly recommend spending a summer in lab.
