NEI summer intern program experiences
</h2>
<div class="c-text">
<p>On August 8, 28 students from the&nbsp;<a href="/grants-and-training/training-nei/internships-and-student-programs/divro-summer-internship-program/nei-divro-program-2013">2013 NEI Summer Internship Program</a>&nbsp;participated in the NIH Summer Research Program Poster Day. They explained their posters, what they did, and how it was accomplished.</p>
<p><strong>Joseph Soucy</strong>, a senior at the University of Rochester in New York worked in the&nbsp;<a href="/research/research-labs-and-branches/laboratory-retinal-cell-and-molecular-biology/molecular-mechanisms-section">Molecular Mechanisms Section</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/research/research-labs-and-branches/laboratory-retinal-cell-and-molecular-biology">Laboratory of Retinal Cell and Molecular Biology</a>&nbsp;under the supervision of Dr. Eugenia Poliakov and&nbsp;<a href="http://irp.nih.gov/pi/t-michael-redmond">Dr. T. Michael Redmond</a>. With an interest in pursuing ophthalmology as a medical specialty, he came to NEI to gain some experience in vision research.</p>
<p>Josephs research focused on one of the enzymes that are responsible for converting beta-carotene into vitamin A. An understanding of these enzymes and their functions may be used to help improve or save a patients vision.</p>
<p>Joseph intends to go to medical school after college, and hopes to return to NEI to complete a post-baccalaureate research program for a year or so before beginning medical school. He stated that, “It is exciting to be a part of a research community among scientists whose interests match mine. I have gained an excellent foundation for science in both a research and clinical setting and I have found helpful, informative mentors&nbsp;here.”</p>
