Adrian Hernandez Blog 3


Hello fellow MARC Trainees!

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.
