Emma Galleger- Marine Biology at UCSB- Week 4
Hi everyone I have just completed my fourth week here in Santa Barbara and it was amazing once again. On Monday I continued to work on Billy’s camera footage tagging if the clams were feeding or not. Tuesday during lecture taught by Mark Page we learned about estuaries and salt marshes. We looked at […]
Liam Intemann, Astrophysics at LASP, Week 4
This week at LASP, I was finally introduced to my project. This project is working with images of star formations, images that are used to study various characteristics of stars, such as their formation and ionization. This meant I had to process these images using a script I wrote in Python to determine its wavelengths. […]

Things have been going wonderfully and I’m so grateful to be here. This week I completed a ton of work for my mentor and saw some of the most beautiful sunsets! On […]
Philip Brooks, Addiction Neuroscience at the George Lab UCSD, Week 6
This is my sixth and final week at the George Lab at UC San Diego. It feels like I’m still just getting started and I can’t believe it is coming so quickly to an end. The week ended up being somewhat uneventful, as our dose-response experiment has come to a close and the long-term experiments […]
Luka Remec-Organic Chemistry-Engle Lab-Week 6
This week in the lab was my last so I was a little pressed for time when it came to running new reactions. Monday started with four more small vial reactions of our Aryl Boronic acid and Aryl Iodide scopes. I weighed out the solid reagents in their vials then used a syringe to measure […]
Merrilee Gallagher-Outlaw Equine Hospital(Week 2)
Since being here I’ve realized how much more confident I’ve become being on my own. It’s been a learning experience to try to do things independently, but I feel like I’m already growing a lot. I feel like I’ve already become more confident dealing with horses in just a few days. Doing a lot of […]

Hello, my name is Katie Pumayalli, and I just finished the last week of my six-week internship at the Ye Lab at Scripps Institute in San Diego, California. I can’t believe my internship is already over. I’ve had the pleasure of working with my amazing mentors, Cailynn Wang and Zhengyuan (Ben) Pang. Since starting my […]
Ava Silverberg, Entomology Research with the Brosi Lab, Week 4
Hello again, everyone!! This week has been eventful and exciting! On Thursday, we had a thrilling encounter with a moose at our site—such a cool experience! Unfortunately, we’ve been noticing a lack of Linum lewisii flowers in bloom. So we spent some time scouting out new locations in Gothic and along AP for more Linum. […]
Maddison Coca, Physical Chemistry at University of Houston, Week Six
I was supposed to have three more days interning at University of Houston; however, with Hurricane Beryl storming its way through Houston and neighboring areas, I was only able to spend my last day, June 10th, working in the lab. I tried one final experiment to see if I could properly etch bare gold away […]
