Bio
Rachel Weiss
Shivani interned in our department and on my team for the summer of 2019. She was eager to learn, attentive and she was receptive to coaching and feedback throughout the experience. In a short period of time, she was able to train in the lab on multiple assays and contributed towards sample analysis for our studies, providing important data. She was also able to put together a researched presentation on automation of ELISA assays and deliver the presentation to our entire team. She was bright and easy to get along with and I'm sure she will be successful at whatever she puts her mind to. We really enjoyed having her at Regeneron!
