    Working at the NIH Clinical Center is an extremely rewarding job because you get to see the every day bench to bedside research being conducted at all levels of the chain. Teamwork and communication within diverse interdisciplinary teams has made working here a wonderful and collaborative experience. I wish the food options in the cafeteria were a little better, but that is about it.

    This is a wonderful place as a summer student intern. It really helps me as a young scientist to grow my knowledge and be exposed to research experience. Working here allows me to experience different aspects of scientific research different than at college. It allows me to apply my knowledge from school to improve health for the world.
