Internship At Medical Research Center, Gambia by Pavillon: 1:27pm On Nov 29, 2019
I will be very brief and apt with my story.
I bagged a degree in microbiology(2.1) from a state university in Nigeria in 2017 and after series of different job search within and outside my course of study, I decided to try regional job application. So I stumbled on a Medical research center in Gambia( Medical Research Center at London school of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine). I read the application process annd required documents, with the help of God and a family member residing there, I got a 6 month internship Medical Research Center, The Gambia.
I would like to ask if anyone has work experience with such or similar organization,
Does it really worth?
Can someone shed more light about a similar organization he/she worked with, since I'm not even a staff, Just an intern with possible extension
also noting that its another country entirely.


Yabbing is allowed....just pls give advice

Perhaps you can post this in health section. You'd be more likely to find someone who has an idea of what you are asking there.

Dude it's worth the experience....go for it.....you get exposed to mordern lab facilities, u get to meet fellow like minded scientist, good networking opportunities, exposure to working outside your home country which is added advantage to your resume, exposure to other research opportunities.........no need asking if it's worth the stress except you are comfortable with the bullshyte situation in Nigeria.

......& Of course I know a few folks working there as well.....
