Experiential Learning

“This summer I had the amazing opportunity of interning at HealthPartners Neuroscience Center as a Clinical Research Intern. I assisted my PI/supervisor with various clinical trials & studies that she was running. Among these studies, I was most involved in a Exercise Rehabilitation for Spinal Cord Injury study, acupuncture for mild Traumatic Brain Injury, acupuncture for Myasthenia Gravis study, and RAPID AI Stroke Study.

I also obtained consent from patients to be involved in an ALS Registry to assess the quality of life, and helped co‐write a manuscript for Potentially Preventable Readmissions from acute inpatient rehabilitation.

I was able to be involved in many studies and explore my academic interests with the help and flexibility of my supervisor. I would like to acknowledge and thank the Multicultural Alumni Network (MCAN) for giving me the opportunity to pursue this internship.”
