“On a personal level, this internship pushed me to adapt to new environments, take on challenges independently, and find creative solutions when faced with uncertainty—skills that will serve me well in any future role. Moving across the world so suddenly was scary at first, but I couldn't have been happier with the choice I made and the opportunity I was given."

"This international experience has taught me a great deal and has been incredibly motivating. On a personal level, I have learned to put things into perspective more easily and have seen that different approaches and systems can be inspiring and effective in their own way. Professionally, I improved my English skills and built strong connections within this research group, which may be valuable for future collaborations. The experience has strengthened my ambition and broadened my perspective on working internationally."

“I have gotten a very realistic view of how research works and how it is to be a researcher. I have been able to make connection there which I could use in my future career in for example the situation where I would want to return at a later stage in my career to this clinic. So, an invaluable network. I believe that in future job applications this achievement will also improve my Curriculum Vitae.”

“Beyond the scientific aspects, this experience broadened my perspective on the world. Having had limited opportunities to travel due to financial constraints, participating in this program a lowed me to immerse myself in a different culture and appreciate how diverse and expansive the world truly is.”

"Thanks to this program, I clearly have a goal in life, where I am eager to work for. Overall, this experience has not only strengthened my CV, but more importantly, it has given me direction and confidence for the next steps in my personal and professional journey."
