Where you are now, it's your baseline. Where you are going depends on YOU! You save yourself, you take action, you harness the skill, you make the connection, you read the book, and you put in the hours, you and only you! You and only you are responsible and accountable for reaching your best version. Just start, and then keep going! Best, Jen #md #imgn #mbbs #doctor #medicine #research #match #ecfmg

While Alex is not a Vassar alum, it's worth noting that we have a number of terrific alums at Regeneron (who often reach out to us to announce these internships). Check out these opportunities and consider applying! The Center for Career Education is happy to review your materials before you apply and to show you how to connect with our Vassar alums that work at Regeneron (see my comment on this post to view the 10+ alums associated with Regeneron)!

Pictured, you can see my intern colleagues Emily DeCocq and Rylee Porter. Throughout our internship experience at Novartis RLT in Indianapolis, we grew more comfortable with the (endearing) term "Avengers," coined by operators and management alike! All jokes aside, this internship was an awesome experience. My role as "Production Intern" seemed vague at first, but I was quick to realize that it was not an ambiguous role, but rather all-encompassing! I reported to line operators, line heads, radiation safety officers, the quality team, and site management daily. My internship project was related to process engineering. More specifically, the question was: what is the designated path, and what is the optimal timing for each step between batches (from last vial filled in one batch to first vial filled in the following)? I sought the guidance of all those mentioned prior to achieve this goal. Analyzing SOPs, interviewing operators, gathering data on batch processes and inefficiencies, and gaining weekly constructive feedback on my project from management were all essential to my success; I can't thank the team enough for their help! Ultimately, I was able to reach and exceed my defined goals for the project. In addition to defining a path and determining optimal timing, I was able to establish an optimized personnel flow in accordance with our operational capacities. Finally, I was able to statistically scope the effect that reaching this optimal timing/flow would have on the site as a whole, in terms of monetary and temporal return on investment. I was lucky to work with such great mentors. Their dedication to manufacturing process with such a crucial medicine like Pluvicto is really something to marvel at (unintended Avengers joke). This site's staff and the medicine of interest truly encompass Novartis's aim: to reimagine medicine to improve and extend people's lives.

“Doing a company internship has been an exciting challenge! I have gained valuable skills and experience, and it boosts my confidence knowing my work has real-life value.” For the past 7 months, Amalie Schufri Klinkby has worked on an internship project at Alphalyse as part of her graduate education in Biomedicine at Syddansk Universitet - University of Southern Denmark. 👉 We asked her what she thought of being an intern: “Being an intern, you work more independently than at the university. I received training and supervision but was also allowed to create my own lab protocols, decide what I wanted to test, pitch it, and then do it. It was a bit overwhelming at first, but everyone was very friendly and answered all my questions. I felt like I was part of the team.” 👉 What was the best part of the internship? “My work felt meaningful. My results were immediately put to use and contributed to improving ongoing client projects. At university, we do laboratory exercises to learn the methods, and often the results are discarded because they are not new or groundbreaking. Here, there are no pre-determined answers, and everyone is enthusiastic about your work. This makes it very motivating!” 👉 Amalie’s advice to other students: “Doing a company internship project is becoming much more popular. You have to plan ahead, especially if there is a specific company you would prefer to work with. I focused on interning with Alphalyse because of my interest in mass spectrometry. However, I also think more companies are realizing the value of bringing in students. Since the internship project is the only thing a student does, without client projects or other tasks on the side, they can delve deeper into the investigation. Even though the company invests resources in teaching us, it pays off in the end.”
