Student and Interns Feedback

Interning at Sena Institute of Technology (SIT) over the summer break was a remarkably enriching international experience. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, my internship was conducted remotely where I worked on the Sub-Saharan African Genome Repository; data science research using the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) tools such as Pubmed and Primer BLAST to mine published literature.
