Sports Nutrition Intern

July - September 2018 • Stanford, CA

What I liked

I loved being able to have hands on work in my field of interest. I was able to directly interact with athletes, make nutrition recommendations, and greatly widen my knowledge on how food fuels athlete performance. What I liked the most was our weekly meetings to present our research on sports nutrition related topics and to discuss our findings as a group. I found this as a huge learning opportunity for myself and I am so grateful for that aspect of the program.

What I wish was different

I do wish that there was a form of compensation.

Advice

Be confident in your self in all situations because you have a lot to offer

It was a great experience to delve into materials science research.

What I wish was different

I wish I had a more hands on experience with a mentor that guided me more through my first lab process.

Try to find a good lab that focuses more on undergrads, and helps facilitate the process of transitioning into a lab.
