Volume 26, Issue 3 - Observational Studies

Getting Your Foot in the Door

Abstract

In this edition of GYFD, EMWA Internship Forum (IF) lead Derek Ho gives us a rundown on the second Live IF in Birmingham. Don’t forget – Barcelona is the next IF venue! The second contribution is from Laura Rodriguez. Laura is not a medical writer and she did not get her current internship position in big pharma through IF. But the powerful piece she shares with us speaks to everyone trying to get their foot in the door in whatever field they are in. Thank you and
congratulations, Laura!
