My experiences at the host university and how they influenced my studies and the time that followed.

During the internship, I learned a lot about nanosciences, which was still an unknown field for me at the time. I was taught some new methods of analysis and learned a lot about the working methods and culture of the working group there.

Through my work at the Technion, I got to know various research groups in different fields. This awakened new interests in me, particularly in tissue engineering, which I later chose as the focus of my Master's thesis. In my opinion, my stay abroad helped me a lot when applying for my Master's thesis, as I was asked a lot of questions about this time in job interviews and received consistently positive feedback.

I am still in active contact with some laboratory partners. In any case, I would like to see renewed connections.
