I can’t believe it is the last day of the MARC Summer program!
I have now finished 10 secondary M.D.-Ph.D. applications and received two interview offers. This
is definitely a bit slow, but I hope to finish the remaining 20 secondary applications within the next two weeks.
This past Wednesday we had our 10-week Summer Programs for Undergraduate Research (SPUR) poster
session. I was really excited and glad to see all the work that my fellow researchers had done during the summer.
Here is a picture of me standing next to my poster :D
I turned in my summer research report earlier today and then went to hang out nearby in Culver
City.
I
am truly grateful for all the opportunities offered through the MARC
summer program to network,
learn about graduate studies, and further pursue my research on
alternative pre-mRNA splicing. I can’t wait to see what the school year
MARC program holds in store.
